ABSTRACT:
A heatsink is provided for cooling power components on a printed circuit board. The heatsink includes a slot so that it is placed over the power device to be cooled. An activating member may be inserted from the opposite side of the printed circuit board and fastened into another slot running parallel to the slot containing the power device. The insertion of the activating member causes the wall between the device and the activating member to flex and clamp the power device in the slot.
