Abstract: An electronic device may include a printed circuit board (PCB) including at least one electronic component, and an electrically conductive enclosure surrounding the at least one electronic component to provide electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding for the at least one component. The electrically conductive enclosure may include a frame, made of a resilient, electrically conductive material, on a mounting surface of the PCB, surrounding the at least one component, and an electrically conductive shielding cover extending across an open top area defined by the frame. The frame may be attached to the PCB and the cover by an electrically conductive material to provide for electrical continuity. The frame may be made of a resilient, electrically conductive material so that the frame may compress in response to an externally applied force, and may return to an original, non-compressed form upon removal of the externally applied force.

Abstract: Techniques of managing heat within an electronic device involve routing a flexible cable or a set of flexible cables within the electronic device to deliver heat to desired locations within the electronic device. Advantageously, it is possible to distribute heat uniformly while using existing components, thus not adding significantly to cost. Furthermore, the flexible cables may be routed in any way that accomplishes it goals of distributing heat and/or electricity.

Abstract: A computing device includes a case enclosure, a heat-generating electrical component, and a thermal insulator. The thermal insulator has a first surface adhesively bonded to the surface of the case enclosure and has a second surface adhesively bonded to the surface of the heat-generating component. The thermal insulator includes a layer of thermally-insulating material between the first and second surfaces, and the thermally-insulating material has a thermal conductivity less than 35 mW/m-K.

Abstract: An electronic device includes: an enclosure having a first surface, a second surface, and a side surface disposed between the first and second surfaces; an edge-to-edge component mounted in an edge-to-edge opening that extends across substantially an entire width of the side surface between the first surface and the second surface; and a brace disposed in the enclosure, the brace extending along the edge-to-edge opening.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a printed circuit board (PCB), the PCB including at least one grounding pad, an integrated circuit mounted on the PCB; an electrically-conductive frame mounted on the PCB and surrounding the integrated circuit, the frame being electrically connected to the at least one grounding pad, and a flexible electrically-conductive, high-thermal-conductivity heat spreader in electrical contact with the frame and in thermal contact with the integrated circuit. The frame, the heat spreader, and the at least one grounding pad form an EMI shield that reduces EMI leakage from the integrated circuit outside a volume defined by the frame, the heat spreader, and the at least one grounding pad.

Abstract: Techniques of managing heat within an electronic device involve providing a vapor chamber in a ring shape within an electronic device. In some implementations, the vapor chamber forms an outer case wall of an enclosure of the electronic device. In further implementations, the vapor chamber has a fill port attached to the inner edge of the vapor chamber. Advantageously, by using a vapor chamber with a ring geometry in an electronic device according to the improved techniques, a form factor of the electronic device (e.g., a laptop, a tablet, etc.) is not affected by the introduction of the vapor chamber as an outer case wall.
