Thermal/Mechanical Reference Design
The 1U CEK Intel reference thermal solution is designed to meet the Thermal Profile for
the Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor E5300 Series in volumetrically constrained
form factors. From
Table 2-5
the three-sigma (mean+3sigma) performance of the
thermal solution is computed to be 0.249 °C/W and the processor local ambient
temperature (T
LA
) for this thermal solution is 40 °C. Hence, the Thermal Profile
equation for this thermal solution is calculated as:
Equation 2-10.y = 0.249x + 40
where,
y = Processor T
CASE
value (°C)
x = Processor power value (W)
Figure 2-21
below shows the comparison of this reference thermal solution’s Thermal
Profile to the Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor E5300 Series Thermal Profile
specification. The 1U CEK solution meets the Thermal Profile with 3.7°C margin at the
lower end (P
_PROFILE_MIN
) and 6.1°C margin at the upper end (TDP). By designing to
Thermal Profile, it is ensured that no measurable performance loss due to TCC
activation is observed under the given environmental conditions.
