1. ΨCA at "DTS = TCONTROL" is applicable to systems that have an internal TRISE (TROOM temperature to Processor cooling fan inlet) of less than 10 °C. In case the expected TRISE is greater than 10 °C, a correction factor should be used as explained below. For each 1 °C TRISE above 10 °C, the correction
factor (CF) is defined as CF = 1.7 / (processor TDP)
2. Example: A chassis TRISE assumption is 12 °C for a 95 W TDP processor: CF = 1.7 / 95 W = 0.018 /W
For TRISE > 10 °C
ΨCA at TCONTROL = (Value provide in Column 2) – (TRISE – 10) * CF ΨCA = 0.627 – (12 – 10) * 0.018 = 0.591 °C/W
In this case, the fan speed should be set slightly higher, equivalent to ΨCA = 0.591 °C/W
5.3Fan Speed Control Scheme with Digital Thermal Sensor (DTS) 2.0
To simplify processor thermal specification compliance, the processor calculates the
DTS Thermal Profile from TCONTROL Offset, TCC Activation Temperature, TDP, and the Thermal Margin Slope provided in the following table.
Note: TCC Activation Offset is 0 for the processors.
Using the DTS Thermal Profile, the processor can calculate and report the Thermal Margin, where a value less than 0 indicates that the processor needs additional cooling, and a value greater than 0 indicates that the processor is sufficiently cooled. Refer to the processor Thermal Mechanical Design Guidelines (TMDG) for additional information (see Related Documents).
