Abstract: An apparatus is described. The apparatus includes a housing including a base and sidewalls. The housing is to support a circuit board. The apparatus also includes a heat sink to be supported by the housing independent of the circuit board. The heat sink is to be thermally coupled to a semiconductor package attached to the circuit board. The heat sink is to be closer to the base of the housing than the circuit board is to be to the base of the housing.

Abstract: An apparatus is described. The apparatus includes an electronic system. The electronic system includes a chassis. The electronic system includes a semiconductor chip cooling component that is rigidly fixed to the chassis. The electronic system includes a packaged semiconductor chip having a lid that is contact with the semiconductor chip cooling component. The electronic system includes an electronic circuit board. The packaged semiconductor chip is electro-mechanically attached to the electronic circuit board.

Abstract: Systems, apparatus, articles of manufacture, and methods are disclosed for supports for internal hardware of electronic devices. An example support includes an integrated circuit (IC) carrier that includes a plurality of walls, supports carried by the walls to support an IC from below the IC, and a retention clip to secure the IC.

Abstract: Couplings are disclosed herein. A plug of a coupling includes a plug body and a socket interface coupled to the plug body. The socket interface includes a shoulder extending axially outward from the plug body, a neck extending axially outward and radially inward from the shoulder, and a socket guide extending axially outward and radially outward from the neck.

Abstract: An apparatus is described. The apparatus includes a cover to enclose a junction between respective ends of first and second fluidic conduits. The first and second fluidic conduits transport a coolant fluid within an electronic system. The apparatus also includes a leak detection device to be located within a region that is enclosed by the cover when the junction is enclosed by the cover. The leak detection device is to detect a leak of the coolant fluid at the junction when the junction is enclosed by the cover. The first and second fluidic conduits extend outside the cover when the junction is enclosed by the cover. Another apparatus is also described. The other apparatus includes a leak detection device to detect a leak of coolant fluid from a specific component or junction in a liquid cooling system of an electronic system.

Abstract: The present disclosure includes a fastenerless hinge system which enables a thin form factor low cost design. A hinge system described herein may include a hinge bracket and a hinge wing. The hinge bracket includes an elevated portion thereby providing a hollow region and one or more spring tabs. The hinge wing is slidably coupled to the hinge bracket through the hollow portion. Advantageously, a hinge system consistent with the present disclosure does not include fasteners such that the “Z” height of the computing device may be minimized in addition to reducing costs.
