Dissipation of Heat
from Regulator and
Audio PA
Heat from the regulator and audio PA is conducted to the underside of
the chassis via a screw boss on the floor of the chassis. The boss is in
contact with the underside of the PCB where the components are
mounted. A coating of thermal paste on the screw boss ensures the
necessary thermal contact between the boss and the PCB. The coated
area is shown in Figure 2.11.
Dissipation of Heat
from RF PAs and Driver
Heat from the RF PAs and driver is conducted to the cooling fins via a
copper plate and the heat-transfer block. The copper plate is fixed to the
underside of the PCB beneath these components. It is in contact with a
large metal block projecting from the front of the heat-transfer block. A
coating of thermal paste on the plate ensures the necessary thermal
contact between the surfaces. The contact area on the heat-transfer
block is shown in Figure 2.12.
