Abstract

See full text

Methods and apparatuses for removably securing one or more computer circuit boards to a computer chassis. In one embodiment, the apparatuses include a bracket having attached sites that can be selectively aligned with corresponding fastening sites of one or more types of printed circuit boards. The circuit boards can be attached to the bracket without tools and without threaded fasteners, and the bracket can be attached to the chassis also without tools and with out threaded fasteners. The circuit boards can be grounded to the chassis solely through a compressible conductive gasket that extends between the chassis and input/output connectors of the printed circuit boards.
