    By maintaining ® Intel 3210 and 3200 Chipsets die temperature at or below the specified limits, a system designer can ensure the proper functionality, performance, and reliability of the chipset. Operation outside the functional limits can degrade system performance and may cause permanent changes in the operating characteristics of the component.

  • Page 11: Packaging Technology

    Packaging Technology Packaging Technology ® The Intel 3210 and 3200 Chipset consists of two individual components: the Memory ® ® ® Controller Hub (MCH) and the Intel I/O Controller (Intel ICH9). The Intel 3210 and 3200 Chipset MCH component uses a 40 mm [1.57 in] x 40 mm [1.57 in] Flip Chip Ball Grid Array (FC-BGA) package with an integrated heat spreader (IHS) and 1300 solder balls.

    Packaging Technology Figure 2-3. MCH Package Dimensions (Bottom View) Notes: All dimensions are in millimeters. All dimensions and tolerances conform to ANSI Y14.5 - 1994. Intel® 3210 and 3200 Chipset Thermal/Mechanical Design Guide...
  • Page 13: Non-Critical To Function Solder Joints

    Figure 2-4. Non-Critical to Function Solder Joints Intel has defined selected solder joints of the MCH as non-critical to function (NCTF) when evaluating package solder joints post environmental testing. The MCH signals at NCTF locations are typically redundant ground or no-critical reserved, so the loss of the solder joint continuity at end of life conditions will not affect the overall product functionality.

    Please refer to the package drawing in Figure 2-1 to perform a detailed analysis. Figure 2-5. Package Height § Intel® 3210 and 3200 Chipset Thermal/Mechanical Design Guide...
  • Page 15: Thermal Specifications

    Analysis indicates that real applications are unlikely to cause the MCH component to consume maximum power dissipation for sustained time periods. Therefore, in order to arrive at a more realistic power level for thermal design purposes, Intel characterizes power consumption based on known platform benchmark applications. The resulting power consumption is referred to as the Thermal Design Power (TDP).
