Shielding -- Need to ground an electrostatic shield?
I am reading this app note by analog devices:
http://www.analog.com/static/imported-files/application_notes/41727248AN_347.pdf
At the bottom of the first page it says: "An electrostatic shield, to be effective..." "But grounding the shield is useless if the signal is not grounded"
Why is grounding the shield useless if the signal is not grounded?
Thanks.
