Zusammenfassung:A system and method are provided including a first thermal component adapted for thermal communication with an integrated circuit, and a second thermal component adapted for thermal communication with the first thermal component upon engagement therewith. Further provided is a coupler slidably coupled to the first thermal component and/or the second thermal component. In use, such coupler is capable of a first orientation for disengaging, the first thermal component and the second thermal component, and a second orientation for engaging the first thermal component and the second thermal component.
