Clip Retention Anchors
For E7500/E7505 chipset-based platforms that have very limited board space, a clip retention
anchor has been developed to minimize the impact of clip retention on the board. It is based on a
standard three-pin jumper and is soldered to the board like any common through-hole header. A
new anchor design is available with 45° bent leads to increase the anchor attach reliability over
time. See Appendix A for the part number and supplier information.
