Hi Chundi, Does this damage happen most of the time or only occasionally? An important clue. How and where is the shield connected, another case where physical implementation being very important. The physical implementation of the protection is at least as important as the electrical design so I would need board layout, stack-up, and how the board interfaces the chassis, if any. Probably an NDA would be required, if so this would become a job for pay as a few hours of work would be needed.
