Abstract
A thermal management device attachment apparatus may be used to thermally couple a thermal management device to a heat generating component on a circuit board. The attachment apparatus may include a support member mounted on the same side of the circuit board as the heat generating component and extending around at least a portion of the component. The support member may include a circuit board mounting portion, a thermal management mounting portion and a side portion extending between the circuit board mounting portion and the thermal management mounting portion. Of course, many alternatives, variations, and modifications are possible without departing from this embodiment.
