7. Thermal Solution Mechanical Design

It can be difficult to find off-the-shelf heat sinks for all applications; however, for some low-power designs, off-the-shelf solutions can often be found. Clipped heat sinks are available that do not require holes on the circuit board for installation.

This section describes the mechanical design in terms of thermal attach force required, bond line thickness (BLT) and pressure recommendations along with appropriate thermal interface material (TIM2) selection.
