Taming The Vibration Monster With A Hair-Thin Wire!

I am always amazed by the creativity of the human mind when confronted by a challenge. In 1960 clever mimds at Tecknit, a manufacture of shielding materials, craeted a unique solution to connect grounding structure to contain EMI. They formed a fine , hair-thin wire into a disk that when compressed , connected ground planes together. They used beryllium copper wire for high spring rate and high conductivity, and plated it with gold to provide a reliable interconnect with many points.
