Abstract: A method of forming a circuit board assembly includes receiving a flat no-lead package. The package includes: a housing having a first side and second side; a circuit disposed within the housing; and an exposed thermal belly pad that is thermally coupled to the circuit and passes at least partially through the first side such that it can be exposed to an environment outside of the housing. The method also includes attaching the second side of the flat no-lead package to a first side of a printed circuit board (PCB) such that the exposed thermal belly pad is opposite the first side of the PCB.

Abstract: An electronic module assembly includes a circuit card assembly (CCA) with heat generating electronic components. A connector is electrically connected to the heat generating electronic components, wherein the connector is positioned at a connection end of the CCA. A heatsink is mounted to the CCA, connected in thermal communication with the electronic components. An undulating channel feature is defined along a lateral edge of the heatsink relative to the connector. One or more channels of the undulating channel feature are aligned with an insertion axis defined by the connector.

Abstract: An assembly includes a circuit card assembly (CCA) module including a CCA with heat generating electronic components and a connector electrically connected to the heat generating electronic components. A chassis including an electrical interface is included. The connector of the CCA module is electrically connected to the electrical interface. The chassis includes a removable cover. A heat transfer element is included between the cover of the chassis and an edge of the CCA module for heat sinking heat from the heat generating electronic components through the heat transfer element to the cover of the chassis.

Abstract: A multi-hybrid module includes a plurality of hybrid assemblies that are perpendicularly mounted with respect to a plane of a circuit board. The hybrid assemblies are mounted on opposing sides of a heat sink. The heat sink has a first column disposed at a first end, a second column disposed at a second opposing end, and a generally flat center wall extending between the first column and the second column to which the hybrid assemblies are mounted. During operation the hybrid assemblies are mounted on edge perpendicular with respect to the circuit board to minimize an area profile of the multi-hybrid module on the circuit board.
