Abstract
A heatsink retainer assembly, and components of the heatsink retainer assembly, are described. The heatsink retainer assembly includes one or more heatsink anchors mounted on a heatsink retention wire between several stops. The anchors include channels to receive the retention wire such that the anchors can slide over the retention wire between the stops. The stops retain the anchors on the retention wire. The anchors can be inserted into respective mounting holes of a carrier substrate by pressing the anchors into the mounting holes on a side of the carrier substrate carrying a heat source. A heatsink can be mounted on the heat source and the retention wire can extend over the heatsink to retain the heatsink against the heat source when the anchors are secured to the carrier substrate. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
