摘要:
A heat dissipation system for a miniaturized form factor card allows a communications system for mobile information devices contained in the card to operate with high heat loads by employing a high conductivity pad on the printed circuit board of the mobile information device which contacts the case of the miniaturized form factor card. Additionally, heat dissipation plugs are integrated into the edge of the PCB with emitting surfaces adjacent radiation holes in the case of the mobile information device adjacent the PCB. Heat convection channels through layers of the PCB allow transfer of heat from the pad to other conductive layers in the PCB. High thermal conductivity packing in the miniaturized form factor card conducts heat from the internal components to the case of the card in contact with the high conductivity. Placement of high heat generation components within the card case adjacent the contact interface with the high conductivity pad is also employed for maximum heat dissipation. A high conductivity membrane is provided on the card case for increased conductivity from the case into the pad on the PCB.
