What are the reasons for the Heatsink falling off from the boards?The attachment method is using Adhesive Tape.

Im guessing your using a PSA? We have had very little luck with this method of attachment as a standalone.Works great if you are using clips. I would suggest you look into a thermal adhesive.

Are you cleaning the component off first with alcohol or something equivelent (noresidue)?
