These things are bloody awesome. They sink heat to the ground plane without being electrically connected to it.

Re: Thermal Jumpers
The great thing about these guys is that you can connect any component that gets hot to the ground plane without electrically connecting it. Means you can get rid of heat sinks in small designs.

Re: Thermal Jumpers
That's a great simple idea, makes you wonder why it's not always been a thing!
I love a simple solution.
Cheers for sharing.
