Installing Thermal Solution
For thermal dissipation, a thermal solution enables the CEM530's
components to dissipate heat efficiently. All heat generating components are
thermally conducted to the heatsink in order to avoid hot spots. Figure below
illustrates how to install the thermal solution on CEM530.
1. There is a protective plastic covering on the thermal pads. This must be
removed before the heatsink can be mounted.
2. Each heatsink is designed for a specific CEM module. The thermal pads
on the heatsink are designed to make contact with the necessary
components on the CEM module. When mounting the heatsink you must
make sure that the thermal pads on the heatsink make complete contact
(no space between thermal pad and component) with the corresponding
components on the CEM module. This is especially critical for CEM
modules that have higher CPU speeds (for example 1.0GHz or more) to
ensure that the heatsink acts as a proper thermal interface for cooling
solutions.
3. Before installing the heatsink to the CPU module, please apply thermal
grease on the CPU die. This CPU module has assembly holes for
installing heatsink plate. Use the appropriate screws to secure the
heatsink plate to the CEM530. Be careful not to over-tighten the screws.
