T
case_max
Maximum die temperature allowed. This temperature is measured at the geometric center
of the top of the package die.
T
case_min
Minimum die temperature allowed. This temperature is measured at the geometric center
of the top of the package die.
TDP Thermal design power. Thermal solutions should be designed to dissipate this target
power level. TDP is not the maximum power that the chipset can dissipate.
