<p>A heat sink (10) comprising a sheet of thermally conducting material with a substantially uniform thickness that is bent back on itself to form two spaced-apart legs (22, 24) coupled together by a surface (26), and a pair of heat-convecting fins (28, 30), wherein the effective thickness of each of the legs is about twice the thickness of the thermally conducting material. Each of the legs (22, 24) provides a larger effective thermal flow path than that provided by the fins (28, 30). Also disclosed is a heat sink (10) that includes a pair of heat-convecting fins (28, 30) with one or more apertures (32) formed therein. A method for making the heat sink is also disclosed.</p> |
