10.3.1 Boxed Processor Cooling Requirements
As previously stated the boxed processor will have three thermal solutions available.
Each configuration will require unique design considerations. Meeting the processor’s
temperature specifications is also the function of the thermal design of the entire
system, and ultimately the responsibility of the system integrator. The processor
temperature specifications are found in Section 5, “Thermal Management
Specifications” of this document.
10.3.1.1 STS200C (Passive / Active Combination Heat Sink Solution)
The active configuration of the combination solution is designed to help pedestal
chassis users to meet the thermal processor requirements without the use of processor
chassis ducting. However, it is strongly recommended to implement some form of air
duct to meet memory cooling and processor TLA temperature requirements. Use of the
active configuration in a 2U rackmount chassis is not recommended.
In the passive configuration it is assumed that a chassis duct will be implemented.
For a list processor and thermal solution boundary conditions, such as Psica, TLA,
airflow, flow impedance, etc, see Tabl e 10-2 and Table10-3. It is recommended that
the ambient air temperature outside of the chassis be kept at or below 35 °C. Meeting
the processor’s temperature specification is the responsibility of the system
integrator.This thermal solution is for use with processor SKUs no higher than 150W (8
Core) or 130W (4 and 6 core).
10.3.1.2 STS200P and STS200PNRW (25.5mm Tall Passive Heat Sink Solution)
(Blade + 1U + 2U Rack)
These passive solutions are intended for use in SSI Blade, 1U or 2U rack configurations.
It is assumed that a chassis duct will be implemented in all configurations.
For a list processor and thermal solution boundary conditions, such as Psica, TLA,
airflow, flow impedance, etc, see Tabl e 10-2 and Table10-3. It is recommended that
the ambient air temperature outside of the chassis be kept at or below 35 °C. Meeting
the processor’s temperature specification is the responsibility of the system integrator.
These thermal solutions are for use with processor SKUs no higher than 130W (6 and 8
Core), or 80W (4 Core).

STS200P and STS200PNRW.
