ABSTRACT:
An apparatus that provides a cooling system in which electronic components are serially configured in the air flow path and tilted down to form a "V" formation when viewed from the side. An air moving device draws air from an inlet, serially past first and second components and exhausts air through an outlet. This formation increases the inlet air opening, increases the area to turn the air in between the components, and increases the size of the plenum between the rear components and the air moving device, all without increasing the size of the electronic device. The larger area reduces the resistance of the air flow cooling path by reducing the number of turns and velocity changes of the air flow, which allows the air moving device to be smaller, use less power, and generate less noise.
