Captive screws dissipate heat in electronic systems

Article Abstract:

A new range of captive fasteners is launched that are designed specifically for electronic heat sink applications, offering consistent, high load mechanical fastening that maximizes thermal conductivity regardless of chip thermal expansion, shock and vibration. The fastener has a special spring-loaded design that compensates for inconsistent chip and interface material thickness.
