To protect platforms from potential operational or safety issues due to an abnormal
condition on PECI, the Host controller should take action to protect the system from
possible damaging states. If the Host controller cannot complete a valid PECI
transactions of GetTemp0() with a given PECI device over 3 consecutive failed
transactions or a one second max specified interval, then it should take appropriate
actions to protect the corresponding device and/or other system components from
overheating. The host controller may also implement an alert to software in the event
of a critical or continuous fault condition.

Storage Conditions Specifications
Environmental storage condition limits define the temperature and relative humidity
limits to which the device is exposed to while being stored. The specified storage
conditions are for component level prior to board attach (see following notes on post
board attach limits).
Table 6-6
represent the maximum or minimum device condition beyond which damage, latent or
otherwise, may occur. The table also specifies sustained storage temperature, relative
humidity, and time-duration limits. At conditions outside sustained limits, but within
absolute maximum and minimum ratings, quality & reliability may be affected.
