Removing And Installing A Processor - NEC Express5800/120Mc2 User Manual

Removing and Installing a Processor

This subsection provides the procedures for removing and installing a
processor in your system. The system board has sockets for two processors.
Each processor is packaged in a Single Edge Contact Cartridge Version2
(SECC2). The cartridge includes the processor core with an integrated 16 KB
primary (L1) cache, a secondary (L2) cache, and a back cover. The primary
processor connector is shown at (A) in the illustration below. The secondary
processor connector is shown at (B).
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components;
place them on an antistatic surface. Modify the system board
using an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis ground.
If the system has been running, any processor and heat sink
already installed on the board will be hot. To avoid the
possibility of a burn, let the components cool for 10 minutes
before continuing with the procedures described here
