Thermal Specifications
6.1.2 Thermal Metrology
The minimum and maximum case temperatures (T
CASE
) are specified in Table 6-6,
through Table 6-13 and are measured at the geometric top center of the processor
integrated heat spreader (IHS). Figure 6-7 illustrates the location where T
CASE
temperature measurements should be made. For detailed guidelines on temperature
measurement methodology, refer to the Intel® Xeon® Processor 5500 Series Thermal
/ Mechanical Design Guide.
