US Patent 11924959 Heatsink based power delivery for CPUs

An information handling system includes a PCB, a CPU, a power distribution hat, and a heat sink. The PCB includes a first power contact on a first surface of the PCB and a first ground contact on a second surface of the PCB. The CPU includes a substrate and is affixed and electrically coupled to the first surface of the PCB by a first surface of the substrate. A second surface of the substrate includes a second power contact and a second ground contact. The power distribution hat couples the first power contact with the second power contact. The heat sink couples the first ground contact with the second ground contact.
