ABSTRACT:
Various embodiments of a heat sink assembly are disclosed. In one embodiment, the heat sink assembly includes a processor mounted onto a circuit board; a heat sink located in thermal contact with the processor at the side of the processor opposite circuit board; and an electromagnetic shielding member located between the circuit board and the heat sink. The electromagnetic shielding member is releasably attached to the circuit board. Additionally, or in the alternative, the heat sink is biased toward the processor by a load spring and the electromagnetic shielding member is configured to provide a spring force between the circuit board and the heat sink, counter directional to the bias from the load spring.
