Abstract
A thermal bridge includes an upper bridge assembly including upper plates arranged in an upper plate stack and a lower bridge assembly including lower plates arranged in a lower plate stack. Outer ends of the lower plates face and thermally couple to an electrical component. The upper plates and the lower plates are arranged in plate pairs. A spring element forces the upper plates and the lower plates of the plate pairs apart. The upper plates include upper limit tabs and the lower plates include lower limit tabs. The upper limit tabs and the lower limit tabs operate to limit spreading apart of the upper plates and the lower plates against the opening forces of the spring element.
