<p>At least one implementation provides a hold down for an electronic device. The electronic device includes a support frame, a circuit board coupled to the support frame and having at least one component, a thermal pad thermally coupled to the component, and a heat sink associated with the thermal pad. The hold down includes a generally planar portion adapted to be positioned over a surface of the heat sink. The hold down also includes a plurality of connecting structures extending angularly from the generally planar portion. The connecting structures and configured to engage the support frame to cause the hold down to apply the biasing force to retain the thermal pad against at least one of the heat sink or the component when the heat sink and the thermal pad are positioned between the hold down and the support frame. A method is also provided for attaching the hold down.</p> |
