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 16) 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.
Figure 16 shows the locations of the localized high temperature zones.
