Abstract

See full text

A pluggable electronic circuit package assembly for use with an edge type connector has a two piece heat sink housing. The heat sink housing has internal retention posts and internal posts receiving recesses that allow the two pieces to be snap fit together for easy assembly and disassembly. Also, a resilient latches the connector to the assembly. In one embodiment, the latch latches the connector to the assembly's printed circuit substrate, the edge of which substrate plugs into the connector. In other embodiments, the latch latches the connector to the assembly's heat sink housing. Also, in one embodiment, the latch is demountable and combined with an external clamp.
