Abstract
A device for fixing a heat distribution covering on a printed circuit board includes at least one fixing foot disposed on a placement area next to a plurality of heat-generating electronic components. The fixing foot is attached above a further conductor track plane that extends below a conductor track plane that interconnects the electronic components. The fixing foot carries a fixing element that can be brought into engagement with the heat distribution covering.
Claims28
A device for fixing a heat distribution covering on a printed circuit board having a placement area carrying a plurality of heat-generating electronic components and at least one conductor track plane for connecting to contact terminals of the components, the device comprising:
- a fixing foot attached on the placement area above at least one further conductor track plane extending below said fixing foot;
- and
- a fixing element disposed on said fixing foot and configured to engage and hold the heat distribution covering on the printed circuit board.
A printed circuit board assembly, comprising:
- a printed circuit board having a placement area carrying a plurality of heat-generating electronic components having respective connection terminals;
- at least one conductor track plane for interconnecting said connection terminals of said electronic components;
- a device for fixing a heat distribution covering on said printed circuit board, said device including:
- a fixing foot attached on said placement area above at least one further conductor track plane extending below said fixing foot;
- and
- a fixing element disposed on said fixing foot and configured to engage and hold the heat distribution covering on the printed circuit board.
A printed circuit board assembly, comprising:
- a printed circuit board having a placement area carrying a plurality of heat-generating electronic components having respective connection terminals;
- a first conductor track plane interconnecting said connection terminals of said electronic components, and a second conductor track plane below said first conductor track plane;
- a heat distribution covering disposed to cover said electronic components;
- a device for fixing said heat distribution covering on said printed circuit board, said device including a fixing foot attached on said placement area above said second conductor track plane;
- and a fixing element disposed on said fixing foot and engaging and holding said heat distribution covering on said printed circuit board.
