ABSTRACT:
A modular integrated computer apparatus that includes a CPU or VLSI module connected to a printed circuit board, a power converter, and one or more associated electric power cables; and is a supporting infrastructure that ensures ease of use. The field replaceable apparatus may also function as an EMI enclosure and a heat management device. The field replaceable apparatus may be inserted and removed from a computer system by handles that are attached to the modular integrated apparatus. The installed field replaceable apparatus is positioned to ensure that the CPU module is properly connected to the printed circuit board.
