Abstract
A radial base heatsink is provided to dissipate heat from a heat source. Such a heatsink comprises a cylindrical core; and a plurality of cooling fins projecting outwardly from the cylindrical core and defining a series of channels in a substantially radial pattern with a fin orientation relative to a center line of the cylindrical core, for dissipating heat generated from a heat source, via the cylindrical core.
