CAUTION
Ensure that the ambient temperature does not exceed the Desktop Boards maximum operating
temperature. Failure to do so could cause components to exceed their maximum case temperature
and malfunction. For information about the maximum operating temperature, see the
environmental specifications in Section 2.14.
CAUTION
Ensure that proper airflow is maintained in the processor voltage regulator circuit. Failure to do
so may result in damage to the voltage regulator circuit. The processor voltage regulator area
(item A in Figure 18) can reach a temperature of up to 85 oC in an open chassis.
Figure 18 shows the locations of the localized high temperature zones.
