Thermal management features are described for use with electrical components. In some examples, an assembly includes a printed board that includes a thermally conductive thermal attach pad thermally connected to a heat sink, an electrically conductive attach pad that is separate from the thermally conductive attach pad, and an electrically conductive trace electrically connected to the electrically conductive attach pad. An electrical component can be electrically connected to the electrically conductive attach pad and the electrically conductive trace of the printed board. A thermal interface material is disposed adjacent at least a portion of a side surface of the electrical component and in contact with the thermally conductive attach pad. In this manner, the assembly may provide a thermally conductive pathway from an electrical component to the heat sink.

Example printed board assembly (PBA) interfaces are described. In some examples, the disclosure relates to a printed board (PB) including a conductive layer, where the PB defines a first surface and a recess in the first surface, where a surface defining the recess is at least one of electrically or thermally connected to the conductive layer, and an electrical component body mounted on the PB. The electrical component body may be mounted on the PB such that a surface of the electrical component body extends over at least a portion of the recess, where the recess extends beyond the electrical component body such that the recess defines an aperture for introducing an interface material between the surface of the electrical component body and the surface of the recess.
