Figure 17 shows the locations of the localized high temperature zones.
Figure 17. Localized High Temperature Zones
Table 30 provides maximum case temperatures for the components that are sensitive
to thermal changes. The operating temperature, current load, or operating frequency
could affect case temperatures. Maximum case temperatures are important when
considering proper airflow to cool the board.
