CAUTION
Ensure that proper airflow is maintained in the processor voltage regulator circuit.
Failure to do so may result in damage to the voltage regulator circuit. The processor
voltage regulator area (shown in Figure 16) can reach a temperature of up to 85
o
C in
an open chassis.
Figure 16 shows the locations of the localized high temperature zones.

Figure 16. Localized High Temperature Zones
Table 28 provides maximum case temperatures for the board components that are
sensitive to thermal changes. The operating temperature, current load, or operating
frequency could affect case temperatures. Maximum case temperatures are important
when considering proper airflow to cool the board.
