ABSTRACT:
The present invention encompasses a mounting structure on which both a power supply and a integrated circuit (IC) chip module are mounted. In one embodiment, the present invention encompasses a mounting structure for mounting a power supply and an integrated circuit (IC) chip module on a printed circuit board (PCB), the mounting structure including: a frame for accepting the power supply, wherein the power supply is slidably mounted on and releasably locked onto the frame; elements for supporting the frame on the PCB; a holder for accepting the IC chip module, the holder being connected to the frame such that the length of connections for providing power from the power supply to the IC chip module is minimized, wherein the IC chip module is removably insertable into and releasably locked onto the holder such that the IC chip module is thermally coupled to the frame and may be directly coupled to the PCB; and a heatsink coupled to the frame for dissipating heat generated by the power supply and the IC chip module.
