Abstract

A printed circuit board thermal conductive structure comprises a thermal spreader layer having an embossed pattern formed on its surface, an adhesive glue layer formed over the thermal spreader, and a surface metallic layer attached to the thermal spreader and the glue layer. A portion of the surface metallic layer is in direct contact or almost direct contact with the thermal spreader. Furthermore, an additional external heat sink can be attached to thermal conductive structure to increase the efficiency of heat dissipation.
