2.12 Thermal Considerations
CAUTION
Ensure that the ambient temperature does not exceed the board’s maximum operating temperature
by more than 10
o
C. 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 2.14.
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
(item A in Figure 22) can reach a temperature of up to 85
o
C in an open chassis.
Figure 22 shows the locations of the localized high temperature zones.
