4.0 Thermal Specifications
4.1 Power
See Table 3 for TDP specifications for the Intel
®
E7500 MCH and the Intel
®
E7501 chipset MCH.
FC-BGA packages have poor heat transfer capability into the board and have minimal thermal
capability without thermal solutions. Intel recommends that system designers plan for one or more
heat sinks when using the Intel E7500 or Intel E7501 chipset components.
4.2 Die Temperature
To ensure proper operation and reliability of the Intel E7500 and Intel E7501 chipset MCHs, the
die temperatures must be at or below the values specified in Table 3. Refer to Section 5.0 for
guidelines on accurately measuring package die temperatures.
