POWER CONTROL MODULES
A power control module includes a power device having a first side and a second side opposite from the first. The power control module includes a printed wiring board (PWB) spaced apart from the first side of the power device. The PWB is electrically connected to the power device. A heat sink plate is soldered to a second side of the transistor for heat dissipation from the transistor. The PWB and/or the heat sink plate includes an access hole defined therein to allow for access to the transistor during assembly. A method of assembling a power control module includes soldering at least one lead of a power device to a printed wiring board (PWB), pushing the power device toward a heat sink plate, and soldering the power device to the heat sink plate.
Electronics Assemblies and Methods of Manufacturing Electronics Assemblies with Improved Thermal Performance
Electronics assemblies and methods of manufacturing electronics assemblies having improved thermal performance. One example of these electronics assemblies includes a printed circuit board (PCB), an integrated circuit package mounted to the PCB, the integrated circuit packing having a heat generating component, and a heat spreader soldered to the PCB such that the heat spreader is thermally coupled to the heat generating component of the integrated circuit package to dissipate heat generated by the heat generating component.
USING A THERMOELECTRIC COMPONENT TO IMPROVE MEMORY SUB-SYSTEM PERFORMANCE
First event information that is associated with an event that corresponds to a temperature of a memory sub-system is received. Whether the first event information associated with the event that corresponds to the temperature of the memory sub-system satisfies a first threshold condition is determined. Responsive to determining that the first event information associated with the event that corresponds to the temperature of the memory sub-system satisfies the first threshold condition, a thermoelectric component (TEC) is caused to change from an inactive state to an active state by decreasing a temperature at a bottom surface of the TEC that is coupled to the memory sub-system as a temperature at a top surface of the TEC increases.

POWER MODULE HAVING METALLIC BOTTOM HEAT-DISSIPATION SUBSTRATE
A power module includes a power source module and a metallic bottom heat-dissipation substrate. The power source module has an input pin and an output pin soldered on and electrically connected with a system board and includes a printed circuit board.
