  • Electrical module mounting apparatus
    Patent number: 5546275
    Abstract: An electrical module (125) is for mounting upon a circuit board (104). During circuit assembly, the electrical module (125) is placed upon a breakaway portion (117) of the circuit board (104) and a bracket assembly (103) is mounted to the circuit board (104) so as to position the electrical module (125). At the conclusion of circuit assembly, final assembly is initiated and the breakaway portion (117) is removed and the circuit board (104) is mounted into a housing (105). Preferably, the electrical module (125) is in direct contact with the housing (105) so as to maximize heat transfer.
