Abstract

A heat exchanger system may have a base, a mounting apparatus for attaching the base to a device, a gasket shelf for placing a gasket, a dissipation member for dissipating heat, and heat generator attachment sites for absorbing heat. A mounting apparatus may have finger-like extensions which flex and draw the base into contact with an underlying electronic device from which the system conducts heat. A base may also have an integrated heat pipe clamp attachment forming an aperture in the base into which a heat pipe may extend and may be clamped in thermal communication. The dissipation device may be a series of fins and troughs and a fan may direct air over the dissipation device to cool the apparatus.
