Abstract

A heat dissipating device includes a heat sink and a fan. The heat sink includes a base configured to contact a heat generating element, and a plurality of fins extending from the base. The base defines an axis. Each fin includes an end portion extending about the axis of the base in one of a clockwise direction and an anti-clockwise direction. The fan is placed on the heat sink. The fan defines a first opening and a second opening adjacent to the base. The fan is operating and pivoted about the axis of the base in the other one of a clockwise direction and an anti-clockwise direction.
