It should be noted that, the functional module generally generates heat when it is powered on. When current passes through the electronic element in the functional module, the current can work and convert into heat energy due to the resistor of the electronic element, even if the current passes through a lead with smaller resistance, certain heat can be generated, and the generated heat can be accumulated continuously along with the increase of the current and the extension of time.

In the age of rapid development of technology today, electronic devices have been widely used in various fields of people's life and work. From daily smart phones and tablet computers to servers, high-performance computers and the like in the professional field, the electronic devices are increasingly powerful in function and continuously improved in performance. However, with the continuous improvement of the internal integration level of the electronic device and the gradual increase of the operating power of the functional module, the heat dissipation problem becomes one of the key factors that restrict the further improvement of the performance of the electronic device.
Fig. 1 is a schematic structural view of a related-art electronic device. In the related art, referring to fig. 1, an electronic device mainly includes a heat dissipation module 3 'and a power consumption function module 1'. The function of the heat radiation module 3' is to timely radiate a large amount of heat generated by the functional module 1' in the operation process, so that the functional module 1' can stably work in a proper temperature environment, and performance degradation and even damage caused by overheating are avoided. The functional module 1' is a core component of the electronic device for implementing various specific functions, such as a central processing unit (central processing unit, CPU), a graphics processor (graphics processing unit, GPU) and the like in the mobile phone, which consume a large amount of electric energy and generate heat during operation.
To achieve efficient heat transfer, liquid silicone grease 2' is often used to connect the heat sink module 3' to the functional module 1 '. The liquid metal silicone grease 2 'is a heat dissipation material, combines the advantages of good heat conduction performance of liquid metal, plasticity, filling performance and the like of silicone grease, can form a compact heat conduction path between the heat dissipation module and the functional module 1', and effectively improves heat dissipation efficiency.
However, this liquid gold silicone grease 2' also presents some problems. Since the liquid gold silicone grease 2' contains metal materials, the metal materials have good conductivity. During the operation of the electronic device, if the physical connection is established between the functional module 1' and the heat dissipation module 3' through the liquid metal silicone grease 2', an electrical conduction path is easy to form. If the electrical signal in the functional module 1 'is transferred to the heat sink module 3' through this conductive path, a series of electromagnetic compatibility (electromagnetic compatibility, EMC) problems are caused, wherein radiation spurs are a more prominent problem.
The radiation stray refers to that when the electronic device is in normal operation, unnecessary electromagnetic signals are radiated to the surrounding space through various paths due to electromagnetic interference of an internal circuit. These stray radiation signals tend to interfere with the proper operation of other surrounding electronic equipment, affecting its performance and stability. In addition, radiation spurious problems can also affect the signal receiving and processing capabilities of the electronic device itself, reducing the overall performance and reliability of the electronic device.
Based on the above, the embodiment of the application provides an electric connection assembly and electronic equipment, which can realize the insulation connection between a functional module and a heat dissipation module while guaranteeing the heat dissipation performance, and have higher reliability.
The embodiment of the application firstly provides an electronic device, which can be, for example, an electronic product with a communication function, a photographing or shooting function, such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a television, a vehicle-mounted device, a wearable device, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a point of sale (POS), a video monitoring device and the like. The mobile phone can be a conventional straight mobile phone, or a foldable mobile phone, for example, a small up-down folding mobile phone, a left-right inner folding mobile phone or a left-right outer folding mobile phone. The wearable device may be, for example, a smart bracelet, a smart watch, a wireless headset, augmented reality (augmented reality, AR) glasses, AR helmets, virtual Reality (VR) glasses, VR helmets, or the like.

Referring to fig. 2, the electronic device provided by the embodiment of the application includes an electrically conductive and thermally conductive medium 21, a heat dissipation module 3 and a functional module 1, wherein the electrically conductive and thermally conductive medium 21 is disposed between the heat dissipation module 3 and the functional module 1 to conduct heat generated by the functional module 1 to the heat dissipation module 3, wherein a first insulating and thermally conductive member 22 is further disposed between the heat dissipation module 3 and the functional module 1, and the first insulating and thermally conductive member 22 is disposed on a side of the electrically conductive and thermally conductive medium 21 facing the heat dissipation module 3, or the first insulating and thermally conductive member 22 is disposed on a side of the electrically conductive and thermally conductive medium 21 facing the functional module 1 to make an insulating connection between the heat dissipation module 3 and the functional module 1.

By way of example, the functional module 1 may be a display screen, a camera, a central processing unit, a memory, a microcontroller, a flash memory, a wireless communication module, a wired communication module, a battery management module, a gravity sensor, etc. In some embodiments, each functional module 1 is designed to perform a specific function or class of functions.

The functional module 1 generally generates heat when it is energized. When current passes through the electronic component in the functional module 1, the current can work and convert into heat energy due to the resistance of the electronic component, even if the current passes through a lead with smaller resistance, certain heat can be generated, and the generated heat can be accumulated continuously along with the increase of the current and the extension of time. In addition, a semiconductor device may be disposed in the functional module 1, and during operations such as data processing, signal transmission, and logic operation, complex processes such as electron transfer and charge transfer may occur in the semiconductor device, and during these processes, electrons collide with a crystal lattice, so that part of electrical energy is converted into thermal energy. And the higher the operating frequency of the semiconductor element, the greater the amount of data processed, the more heat is generated. For example, when a CPU performs a high-intensity computing task, the transistors inside the CPU are turned on and off rapidly, and a large amount of electrons flow therein, so that more heat is generated, resulting in an increase in the CPU temperature. In general, a certain amount of heat is generated during the power-on operation of the functional module 1.
