However, the heat sink includes a plurality of parallel and spaced fins for the air to quickly flow through, the air cannot fully contact with the fins, thus reducing heat dissipating efficiency of the heat sink.
- Many aspects of the embodiments can be better understood with reference to the drawings. The components in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the embodiments. Moreover, in the drawings, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
