The present invention provides a method for preparing a conforming shield
enclosure for shielding a semiconductor device of an electronic component
assembly comprising the steps of: (a) metalizing a sheet of a
thermoformable polymer with an admixture of a conductive metal and a
resin; and (b) thermoforming the metalized thermoformable polymer from
step (a) to form a conforming shield enclosure; wherein the conforming
shield enclosure has dimensions conforming to the inside of a housing of
the electronic component assembly and enclosing and thereby shielding the
semiconductor device from electromagnetic frequencies, wherein the
conforming shield enclosure is prepared by paint metalization.
