Abstract

A heat dissipation device for dissipating heat from an electronic component mounted on a printed circuit board, includes a fin unit, a centrifugal fan located adjacent to the fin unit, a heat-conducting board attached to the electronic component and a heat pipe thermally connecting the fin unit and the electronic component. An engaging portion protrudes upwardly from a top face of the heat-conducting board. The heat pipe has an evaporating section extending through the engaging portion and being fixed to the top face of the heat-conducting board, and a condensing section attached to the fin unit.
