The ambient temperature should be measured just upstream of a passive heatsink or at the fan inlet for an active heatsink. The case temperature of the processor, measured at the geometric center of the topside of the IHS. The ambient air temperature external to a system chassis. This temperature is usually measured at the chassis air inlets. Heatsink temperature measured on the underside of the heatsink base, at a location corresponding to TC. The maximum case temperature as specified in a component specification. Case-to-ambient thermal characterization parameter (psi). A measure of thermal solution performance using total package power. This is defined as: (TC - TA) / Total Package Power. Note: Heat source must be specified for Ψ measurements. Thermal and Mechanical Design Guidelines 11
