Abstract

An electronic component heat sink assembly comprising a printed circuit board having electronic components; and a box surrounding the printed circuit board. The box has a first box member with a molded plastic frame and a heat transfer member connected to the molded plastic frame. The frame of the first box member can also form part of an electrical header connector. The heat transfer member extends through the molded plastic frame and has portions which extend from different sides of the molded plastic frame. The portions of the heat transfer member extend from a first one of the sides of the molded plastic frame and are thermally connected to the electronic components such that heat from the electronic components is transferred out of the box, through the molded plastic frame, by the heat transfer member.
