Appendix A . Heatsink Installation
Instructions
It is necessary for the Intel
®
Core
TM
2 Duo processor to have a thermal solution
attached to it in order to keep it within its operating temperature.
Caution: An ESD wrist strap must be used when handling the board and installing the
heatsink/fan assembly.
A heatsink is included in the kit. To install the heatsink:
1. Remove the heatsink from its package and separate the fan heatsink portion
from the heatsink backplate.
Figure 9. Heatsink and Backplate
2. Examine the base of the heatsink, where contact with the processor die is
made. This surface should be clean of all materials and greases. Wipe the
bottom surface clean with isopropyl alcohol.
3. Place the backplate on the underside of the development board so that the
pins protrude through the holes in the development board around the
processor.
