Shielded electrical cable
A shielded electrical cable ( 2202 ) includes a conductor set ( 2204 ) and two generally parallel shielding films ( 2208 ) disposed around the conductor set ( 2204 ). The conductor set ( 2204 ) includes one or more substantially parallel longitudinal insulated conductors ( 2206 ). The shielding films ( 2208 ) include a parallel portion ( 2208 ) wherein the shielding films ( 2208 ) are substantially parallel. The parallel portion ( 2208 ) is configured to electrically isolate the conductor set ( 2204 ).
1. A shielded electrical cable comprising:
at least two spaced apart conductor sets arranged generally in a single plane, each conductor set including one or more substantially parallel longitudinal insulated conductors;
two generally parallel shielding films disposed around the conductor sets and including a parallel portion between the conductor sets wherein the shielding films are substantially parallel; and
a longitudinal ground conductor disposed between the shielding films in the parallel portion, wherein the parallel portion comprises a conformable adhesive layer and a non-conformable stop layer disposed between the shielding films, the stop layer providing controlled separation between the ground conductor and the shielding films.
2. The shielded electrical cable of claim 1 , wherein the stop layer is non-conductive.
3. The shielded electrical cable of claim 1 , wherein the stop layer comprises a polymer.
4. The shielded electrical cable of claim 1 , wherein the stop layer prevents direct electrical contact between the longitudinal ground conductor and at least one of the two shielding films.
5. The shielded electrical cable of claim 1 comprising a non-conformable stop layer disposed between the longitudinal ground conductor and each of the two shielding films.
6. The shielded electrical cable of claim 1 , wherein the parallel portion includes an opening in at least one location of the parallel portion.
