C ON Demand – Assembly of Thermal Interface

  • Drill the nine holes (diameter 3.5 mm) to Aluminum adapter
    150 mm × 75 mm × 5 mm; for correct dimensions use the ALTIUM file.
  • Drill another nine holes (diameter 2.5 mm) to heat sink and cut threads M3
  • Add nine holes (diameter 3 mm) to the thermal foil using a punch pliers; so far this is the most excellent choice.
  • Attention: Less adhesive side of thermal foil (RS) shows towards adapter, strong adhesive side (3M) shows towards the PCB.
  • Remove protection foil on less adhesive side only,
    please keep protection foil on the other side. Now place the foil at the aluminum adapter.
  • Place just the nine screws plus washers at the PCB and place the top down on the PCB, two pieces of tape keep the screws in place, so there are nine bolts on the other side, this helps for the next step.
  • Remove protection foil at the strong adhesive side of the thermal foil, remove white protection foil at the adapter and place the adapter precisely on PCB.
  • Flip by keeping the adapter in place and set the adapter and PCB on top of heat sink, remove tapes and fix the screws. This completes the process

EMI: the adapter and heat sink are floating and provide the shortest connection J3 GND to the screw left of the L2 heat sink. Figure C-2 shows a GND connection.
