Abstract
A system and flexible mounting structure for solder joint stress reduction are disclosed that provide flexibility on a printed circuit board that includes an input output (I/O) connector when wrenching or torque forces are applied. A bracket supporting the connector is mounted on one side of the PCB, and a hinge saddle structure is mounted on the other side of the PCB. A bottom structure is connected to the hinge saddle structure by screw bosses. The bottom structure and the hinge saddle structure are connected to a chassis of an information handling system. An area of the PCB as defined by the bracket is provided flexibility when forces are applied.
