Thermal/Mechanical Design Guidelines
1 Introduction
1.1 Objective
This guide describes the reference thermal/mechanical solution and design parameters required for
the 64-bit Intel
®
Xeon™ processor MP with 1 MB L2 cache. It is also the intent of this document to
comprehend and demonstrate the processor cooling solution features and requirements.
Furthermore, this document provides an understanding of the processor thermal characteristics, and
discusses guidelines for meeting the thermal/mechanical requirements imposed on the entire life of
the processor. The thermal/mechanical solutions described in this document are intended to aid
component and system designers to develop and evaluate a processor compatible solution.
1.2 Scope
The thermal/mechanical solutions described in this document pertain only to a solution(s) intended
for use with the 64-bit Intel Xeon processor MP with 1 MB L2 cache in 2U+ form factor systems.
This document contains the mechanical and thermal requirements of the processor (or processor
family) cooling solution. In case of conflict, the data in the 64-bit Intel
®
Xeon™ Processor MP with
1 MB L2 Cache Datasheet supersedes any data in this document. Additional information is provided
as a reference in the appendix section(s).
