Abstract

Various embodiments described herein include systems, methods and/or devices used to dissipate heat generated by electronic components in an electronic system (e.g., a memory system that includes closely spaced memory modules). In one aspect, an electronic assembly includes a first circuit board with one or more heat generating components coupled thereto. The electronic assembly further includes a second circuit board with one or more heat sensitive components coupled thereto. The electronic assembly also includes a thermal barrier interconnect. The thermal barrier interconnect electrically couples the first circuit board to the second circuit board. In some embodiments, thermal barrier interconnect is a flexible interconnect with a lower thermal conductivity than the first circuit board and the second circuit board. The thermal barrier interconnect forms a thermal barrier between the first and second circuit boards which protects the heat sensitive components from the heat generating components.
