Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An electronic apparatus and heat dissipation and EMI shielding structure thereof are provided. The electronic apparatus includes a substrate, at least one chip disposed on the substrate, and the heat dissipation and EMI shielding structure. The heat dissipation and EMI shielding structure covers the chip and includes a shielding frame and a heat dissipation element. The shielding frame has an opening to expose the chip, and the heat dissipation element is disposed on the shielding frame and covers the opening. The conjunction of the shielding frame and the heat dissipation element can protect the chip from being interfered with electromagnetic waves, and the heat generated by the chip can be dissipated by the heat dissipation element.
