LGA775 Socket Heatsink Loading R Simulation shows that the solder joint force (Faxial) is proportional to the board deflection measured along the socket diagonal. The matching of Faxial required to protect the LGA775 socket solder joint in temperature cycling is equivalent to matching a target MB deflection. Therefore, the heatsink preload for LGA775 socket solder joint protection against fatigue failure can be more generally defined as the load required to create a target board downward deflection throughout the life of the product. This board deflection metric provides guidance for mechanical designs that differ from the reference design for ATX//µATX form factor. A.2.2 Motherboard Deflection Metric Definition Motherboard deflection is measured along either diagonal (refer to Figure 22): d = dmax - (d1 + d2)/2 d' = dmax - (d'1 + d'2)/2 Configurations in which the deflection is measured are defined in the Table 5. To measure board deflection, follow industry standard procedures (such as IPC) for board deflection measurement. Height gauges and possibly dial gauges may also be used. Table 5.
