Thermal/Mechanical Reference Design
2 Thermal/Mechanical Reference
Design
This chapter describes the thermal/mechanical reference design for Quad-Core Intel®
Xeon® Processor 5400 Series. Both Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor X5400 Series
and Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor E5400 Series are targeted for the full range of
form factors (2U, 2U+ and 1U). The Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor X5482 sku is
an ultra performance version of the Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 5400 Series
with 150W TDP and is use only in workstation platforms.
2.1 Mechanical Requirements
The mechanical performance of the processor cooling solution must satisfy the
requirements described in this section.
2.1.1 Processor Mechanical Parameters
Notes:
1. Refer to drawings in Appendix B.
2. In the case of a discrepancy, the most recent Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 5400 Series Datasheet
and LGA771 Socket Mechanical Design Guide supersede targets listed in Table 2-1 above.
3. These socket limits are defined in the LGA771 Socket Mechanical Design Guide.
4. These package handling limits are defined in the Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 5400 Series
Datasheet.
5. Shear load that can be applied to the package IHS.
6. Tensile load that can be applied to the package IHS.
7. Torque that can be applied to the package IHS.
