Electronic assembly for a vehicle display

A heat transfer assembly for a plurality of circuit boards disposed in a housing comprising:

• a first electronic element disposed on a first circuit board disposed on a first plane;
• a second circuit board spaced apart from the first circuit board and disposed in a second plane, said second circuit board comprising an opening axially aligned the first electronic element;
• a flexible heat transfer element disposed adjacent to a bottom surface of the housing, said flexible heat transfer element comprising a tab portion extending therefrom;
• and
• said tab portion have a central portion disposed against the first electronic element forming a third plane between the first plane and the second plane, and an end portion extending between the second plane and the housing so that heat conduct through the flexible heat transfer element to the housing.

A method for assembling an electronic assembly comprising;

• stacking and joining a plurality of circuit boards and spacers alternately;
• inserting a flexible heat transfer element into a housing adjacent to a bottom wall;
• bending a bending portion of a tab portion of the flexible heat transfer element so that a central portion of the tab portion contacts an electronic component within the stack;
• and
• disposing an end portion toward the housing so that an opening within the end portion is around a connector.
