The system includes a circuit board on which electrical components are mounted. The components are mounted on the front side of the board, and the back side of the board is thermally coupled to the housing by a liquid-filled thermal heat sink pouch between the board and the housing. A heat generating component such as a microprocessor is mounted to the front side of the board, but the top surface of the component is directed toward the back side of the board such that it is also thermally coupled to the housing.

System with cooling of electronic components on a circuit board

A microcomputer system includes a microprocessor and a housing for holding the microprocessor. The housing includes sets of conectors preferably comprised of two alternative sets of connectors. The microcomputer system is light weight, small and portable. Connections to external components such as peripheral devices are achieved with one embodiment via a docking connector. This docking connector includes a set of pin connectors that can be coupled to connectors on the housing. It also includes an ejector mechanism. The ejector mechanism enables decoupling by depression of the ejector. The use of the docking connector allows all peripheral connections to be realized through a single connector.
