3.2Thermal Solution Design Requirements

Thermal Design Guide for Socket F (1207) Processors

32800 Rev. 3.02 August 2006

Depending on the system features and layout, more space around the socket may be available for the thermal solution than is shown in Figure 2 on page 15. This space permits heat sink designs with better thermal performance.

Appendix A on page 37 shows a complete, detailed set of keep-out drawings for the AMD PIB thermal solution for socket F (1207).

3.2Thermal Solution Design Requirements

Table 2 provides the design-target specifications that must be met for the processor to operate reliably in a typical platform using the AMD PIB thermal solution for socket F (1207) processors.

Notes:

1. This is the thermal resistance required for dual-core, 90-nm socket F (1207) processors. The thermal resistance requirement may vary depending on the product OPN. The user should consult the processor data sheet for the thermal requirements specific to the part.

2. Heat sinks weighing up to 450 g can be attached to the motherboard. Heat sinks weighing over 450 g should be tied directly to the chassis for reliable shock and vibration performance.

3.3Sample Heat Sinks and Attachment Methods

The heat sink, fan, mounting spring clip, and thermal interface material used for the AMD PIB thermal solution for socket F (1207) processors are the same as the heat sink, fan, mounting spring clip, and thermal interface material used for systems based on the socket 940 processor.

The backplate and retention frame are different from those used in the socket 940 processor. The EMC shield implemented in the socket 940-based systems is not recommended for AMD PIB thermal solutions for socket F (1207) processors.
