Apparatus, system, and method for electromagnetic interference mitigation in split heatsink technologies

Abstract:

The disclosed apparatus may include (1) a split heatsink assembly that comprises (A) a first heatsink that includes a base for thermally coupling to a first heat-emitting component, wherein the base of the first heatsink forms an opening, and (B) a second heatsink that includes a pedestal for thermally coupling to a second heat-emitting component, wherein the pedestal of the second heatsink fits into the opening formed by the base of the first heatsink, and (2) an EMI absorber that at least partially encompasses the pedestal of the second heatsink and resides between the pedestal of the second heatsink and the base of the first heatsink in the opening. Various other apparatuses, systems, and methods are also disclosed.
