More Information
Summary:Systems and methods of fabricating circuit board assemblies may provide for a circuit board assembly that includes an expansion card having a first side and a second side, a first set of semiconductor packages coupled to the first side and a second set of semiconductor packages coupled to the second side. The circuit board assembly may also include a synergistic combination of cooling solutions for the expansion card such as a metallic duct, centrifugal fan or secondary plate, structural solutions for the expansion card such as a clamp structure or retention interlock, and volume reduction solutions for the expansion card such as one or more flipped power connectors. L'invention concerne des systèmes et des procédés de fabrication d'ensembles carte de circuit imprimé qui peuvent fournir un ensemble carte de circuit imprimé qui comprend une carte d'extension ayant un premier côté et un second côté, un premier ensemble de boîtiers de semi-conducteur couplés au premier côté et un second ensemble de boîtiers de semi-conducteur couplés au second côté. L'ensemble carte de circuit imprimé peut également comprendre une combinaison synergique de solutions de refroidissement pour la carte d'extension, telles qu'un conduit métallique, un ventilateur centrifuge ou une plaque secondaire, des solutions structurales pour la carte d'extension, telles qu'une structure de fixation ou un verrouillage de retenue, et des solutions de réduction de volume pour la carte d'extension, telles qu'un ou plusieurs connecteurs d'alimentation basculés.
