2.6 Thermal Considerations
CAUTION
Failure to ensure appropriate airflow may result in reduced performance of both the processor
and/or voltage regulator or, in some instances, damage to the board.
All responsibility for determining the adequacy of any thermal or system design remains solely
with the system integrator. Intel makes no warranties or representations that merely following the
instructions presented in this document will result in a system with adequate thermal performance.
CAUTION
Ensure that the ambient temperature does not exceed the board’s 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 2.8.
CAUTION
The processor voltage regulator area (shown in Figure 23) can reach a temperature of up to
97.5
o
C in an open chassis. Ensure that proper airflow is maintained in the processor voltage
regulator circuit. Failure to do so may result in shorter than expected product lifetime.
