4.2Thermal 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 4 on page 21. This space permits heat sink designs with better thermal performance.

Appendix B on page 45 shows a complete, detailed set of keep-out drawings for custom 1U-2P systems based on socket F (1207) processors.

4.2Thermal Solution Design Requirements

To maintain the case temperature of the processor below the maximum specification, certain heat sink design parameters must be considered. Table 4 provides the design-target specifications that must be met for socket F (1207) processors to operate reliably.

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 more reliable shock and vibration performance.

 

3. This chapter describes a heat sink weighing less than or equal to 450 g.

 

 

 

 

 

4.3Sample Heat Sinks and Attachment Methods

The following sections provide one possible thermal design solution and the specifics on attaching that solution to the motherboard.

Table 5 on page 23 lists the parts used in the thermal reference design solution for 1U-2P systems based on socket F (1207) processors.
