Abstract
In the present invention, a heat transferring arrangement is disclosed for a printed wiring board assembly. A heat conductive panel is provided to be in close proximity to a component side of a printed wiring board. The heat conductive panel further includes flange members, so that the flange members may be forced against a heat conducting surface of a chassis and provide a thermally conductive contact therewith. With this arrangement, heat transfer by radiation from the circuit components to the heat conductive panel is enhanced and thereby permits heat transfer by conduction from the heat conductive panel to the chassis.
