Abstract
A folded system-in-package (SiP) assembly is provided for minimizing the footprint of two corresponding circuit board modules in a handheld electronic device. The assembly includes top and bottom circuit board modules that are electrically interconnected through a flex circuit. Either a plate or wrapped heat spreader may be thermally coupled to the top circuit board module to conduct heat from the heat-generating components mounted to the top circuit board module and to a case of the electronic device.
