Alignment frame for retaining a module on a circuit board

摘要

An alignment frame is provided. The frame includes a plurality of frame members coupled together to form a base. The base is configured to surround an electronic module to provide a protective cover for the electronic module. The base includes corners formed at intersections of the frame members. An alignment member is positioned on at least one corner of the base. The alignment member is configured to align an electronic module with respect to an electrical connector on a circuit board. A coupling member extends from at least one corner of the base. The coupling member is configured to be through-hole mounted to an aperture in the circuit board. The coupling member includes a retention feature configured to create a press-fit with an inner surface of the aperture.
