Abstract

A carrier assembly (10) for a circuit board includes a copper insert (12) pressed into an aluminum carrier (14). The copper insert has an undercut recess (36). As the insert (12) is pressed into the carrier (14), a portion of the carrier material is flowed into the undercut recess (36) to provide a firm interlocking of the insert (12) with the carrier (14).
