Abstract

An electronic module assembly includes a relatively thin, bendable base plate having at least one bend axis along which the base plate is bent over on itself to provide an enclosure. An inner surface of the base plate supports at least one, and preferably two, relatively thicker metal plates, one on each side of the bend axis, each metal plate acting as a heatsink for circuit components mounted thereon.
