Zusammenfassung:A system including a point of load converter module (POL). The POL module includes a point of load printed circuit board. At least one inductor is mounted to the point of load printed circuit board. The POL module includes a power network. The point of load converter module is configured to be surface mounted. The system includes a heat sink including a first leg configured to be surface mounted adjacent the point of load printed circuit board, a second leg configured to be surface mounted adjacent the point of load printed circuit board opposite the first leg, and a cap portion connecting the first leg to the second leg. The heat sink is sized and shaped to encompass the POL and configured to connect to the power network. The power network may be a PGND network.
