Intel Xeon Phi Processor x200 Thermal/Mechanical Specification And Design Manual page 18


When installing the processor into the socket, care should be taken to ensure that the
processor is properly oriented, that is, the processor pin-1 is in the same direction as
the socket pin-1, and that there are no contaminations or foreign material on the land
pads or gold fingers.
In cases where the processor is not installed into the socket, it should be placed or
stored in the appropriate tray or container in order to avoid damaging the package
substrate or its bottom side components.
