    LGA2011-0 Socket Contact/Land Mating Location All socket contacts are designed such that the contact tip lands within the substrate pad boundary before any actuation load is applied and remain within the pad boundary at final installation, after actuation load is applied. The offset between LGA land center and solder ball center is defined in Figure 3-5.
  • Page 23: Attachment To Motherboard

    LGA2011-0 Socket Figure 3-6. LGA2011-0 Socket Land Pattern (Top View of Board) Attachment to Motherboard The socket is attached to the motherboard by 2011 solder balls. There are no additional external methods (that is, screw, extra solder, adhesive, and so forth) to attach the socket.
  • Page 24: Socket Components

    LGA2011-0 Socket Socket Components The socket has two main components, the socket body and Pick and Place (PnP) cover, and is delivered as a single integral assembly. Refer to Appendix B for detailed drawings. 3.4.1 Socket Body Housing The housing material is thermoplastic or equivalent with UL 94 V-0 flame rating capable of withstanding 260 °C for 40 seconds (typical reflow/rework).
  • Page 25: Lga2011-0 Pick And Place Cover

    3-8, the pick and place (PnP) cover remains on the socket during ILM installation. Once the ILM with its cover is installed, Intel is recommending the PnP cover be removed to help prevent damage to the socket contacts. To reduce the risk of bent contacts the PnP Cover and ILM Cover were designed to not be compatible.
  • Page 26: Socket Standoffs And Package Seating Plane

    LGA2011-0 Socket 3.4.5 Socket Standoffs and Package Seating Plane Standoffs on the bottom of the socket base establish the minimum socket height after solder reflow and are specified in Appendix Similarly, a seating plane on the topside of the socket establishes the minimum package height.
  • Page 27: Independent Loading Mechanism (Ilm)

    ILM as a system. These studies directly impact the design of the ILM. The Intel reference ILM will be “built to print” from Intel controlled drawings. Intel recommends using the Intel Reference ILM. Custom non-Intel ILM designs do not benefit from Intel's detailed studies and may not incorporate critical design parameters.

    Independent Loading Mechanism (ILM) Square ILM Design Concept The square ILM consists of two assemblies that will be procured as a set from the enabled vendors. These two components are the ILM assembly and back plate. 4.1.1 Square ILM Assembly Design Overview Figure 4-1.

    Independent Loading Mechanism (ILM) The hinge lever and active lever are designed to place equal force on both ends of the ILM load plate. The frame provides the hinge locations for the levers. The hinge lever connects the load plate to the frame. When closed, the load plate applies four point loads onto the IHS at the “finger”...
  • Page 30: Ilm Features

    Independent Loading Mechanism (ILM) ILM Features • Allows for topside thermal solution attach to a rigid structure. This eliminates the motherboard thickness dependency from the mechanical stackup. • Captive nuts clamp the ILM frame to the board and reduced board bending leading to higher solder joint reliability.

  • Page 33: Ilm Keying

    Independent Loading Mechanism (ILM) 4.2.2.1 ILM Keying As indicated in Figure 4-8, the socket protrusion and ILM key features prevent 180- degree rotation of ILM assembly with respect to socket. This result in a specific orientation with respect to ILM active lever and pin 1 of the socket body. Figure 4-8.

    1. Using SMT, mount the socket onto the circuit board. Intel provides detailed instruction for lead free manufacturing of complex interconnects on the Intel Learning Network (http://iln.intel.com/Portal/Scripts/Home/Home.aspx).
  • Page 35: Processor Installation

    Independent Loading Mechanism (ILM) Processor Installation The hinge lever can be locked down to keep it out of the way when removing the PnP cover and installing the processor (Figure 4-11). If the hinge lever is locked down when the ILM is open, then the load plate will be locked in the open position and less likely to fall closed if bumped.
  • Page 36: Ilm Cover

    3. Close the Hinge lever with a smooth uniform motion and latch to the ILM. ILM Cover Intel has developed a cover that will snap on to the ILM for the LGA2011 socket family. The ILM cover is intended to reduce the potential for socket contact damage from the operator / customer fingers being close to the socket contacts to remove or install the pick and place cover.

  • Page 48: Processor Core Thermal Features

    Thermal Management Specifications Processor Core Thermal Features 6.2.1 Processor Temperature A feature in the processor is a software readable field in the IA32_TEMPERATURE_TARGET register that contains the minimum temperature at which the TCC will be activated and PROCHOT_N will be asserted. The TCC activation temperature is calibrated on a part-by-part basis and normal factory variation may result in the actual TCC activation temperature being higher than the value listed in the register.
  • Page 49: Frequency/Svid Control

    Thermal Management Specifications 6.2.2.1 Frequency/SVID Control The processor uses Frequency/SVID control whereby TCC activation causes the processor to adjust its operating frequency (using the core ratio multiplier) and input voltage (using the SVID signals). This combination of reduced frequency and voltage results in a reduction to the processor power consumption.
  • Page 50: Clock Modulation

    Thermal Management Specifications 6.2.2.2 Clock Modulation Clock modulation is performed by alternately turning the clocks off and on at a duty cycle specific to the processor (factory configured to 37.5% on and 62.5% off for TM1). The period of the duty cycle is configured to 32 microseconds when the TCC is active. Cycle times are independent of processor frequency.
