Thermal Considerations
6.6

Peripherals

When determining the thermal requirements for a given application, peripherals to be used with
the CP6003-RA/RC must also be considered. Devices such as PMC modules, CCPMC mod-
ules, XMC modules, conduction-cooled XMC modules and SATA Flash modules which are di-
rectly attached to the CP6003-RA/RC must also be capable of being operated at the
temperatures foreseen for the application. It may very well be necessary to revise system re-
quirements to comply with operational environment conditions. In most cases, this will lead to
a reduction in the maximum allowable ambient operating temperature or even require active
cooling of the operating environment.
Warning!
As Kontron assumes no responsibility for any damage to the CP6003-RA/RC
or other equipment resulting from overheating of the CPU, it is highly recom-
mended that system integrators as well as end users confirm that the opera-
tional environment of the CP6003-RA/RC complies with the thermal
considerations set forth in this document.
