Intel Desktop Board D33217CK Technical Product Specification 2.5.2 Fan Header Current Capability Table 17 lists the current capability of the fan headers. Table 17. Fan Header Current Capability Fan Header Maximum Available Current Processor fan .1 A 2.6 Thermal Considerations CAUTION A chassis with a maximum internal ambient temperature of 58 oC at the processor fan inlet is a requirement. Whenever possible, use of a processor heat sink that provides omni-directional airflow to maintain required airflow across the processor voltage regulator area is recommended. 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 14) can reach a temperature of up to 97.5 oC 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. 48

Thermal Considerations
CAUTION
A chassis with a maximum internal ambient temperature of 58
o
C at the processor fan
inlet is a requirement.
Whenever possible, use of a processor heat sink that provides
omni-directional airflow to maintain required airflow across the processor voltage
regulator area is recommended.
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 14) 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.
