Notes: 1. Ψ
CA
at "DTS = T
CONTROL
" is applicable to systems that have an internal T
RISE
(T
ROOM
temperature
to Processor cooling fan inlet) of less than 10 °C. In case the expected T
RISE
is greater than 10
°C, a correction factor should be used as explained below. For each 1 °C T
RISE
above 10 °C, the
correction factor (CF) is defined as CF = 1.7 / (processor TDP)
2. Example: A chassis T
RISE
assumption is 12 °C for a 95 W TDP processor:
CF = 1.7 / 95 W = 0.018 /W
For T

> 10 °C

CA
= 0.627 – (12 – 10) * 0.018 = 0.591 °C/W
In this case, the fan speed should be set slightly higher, equivalent to Ψ
CA
= 0.591 °C/W
Fan Speed Control Scheme with Digital Thermal Sensor
(DTS) 2.0
To simplify processor thermal specification compliance, the processor calculates the
DTS Thermal Profile from T
CONTROL
Offset, TCC Activation Temperature, TDP, and the
Thermal Margin Slope provided in the following table.
Note: TCC Activation Offset is 0 for the processors.
Using the DTS Thermal Profile, the processor can calculate and report the Thermal
Margin, where a value less than 0 indicates that the processor needs additional
cooling, and a value greater than 0 indicates that the processor is sufficiently cooled.
Refer to the processor Thermal Mechanical Design Guidelines (TMDG) for additional
information (see Related Documents).
