Package Mechanical
Specifications
The processor is packaged in a Flip-Chip Land Grid Array package that interfaces with
the motherboard via an LGA1366 socket. The package consists of a processor mounted
on a substrate land-carrier. An integrated heat spreader (IHS) is attached to the
package substrate and core and serves as the mating surface for processor thermal
solutions, such as a heatsink.

the LGA1366 socket.
The package components shown in
• Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS)
• Thermal Interface Material (TIM)
• Processor core (die)
• Package substrate

Package Mechanical Drawing

The package mechanical drawings are shown in
drawings include dimensions necessary to design a thermal solution for the processor.
These dimensions include:
• Package reference with tolerances (total height, length, width, etc.)
• IHS parallelism and tilt
• Land dimensions
• Top-side and back-side component keep-out dimensions
• Reference datums
• All drawing dimensions are in mm.
• Guidelines on potential IHS flatness variation with socket load plate actuation and
installation of the cooling solution is available in the appropriate processor Thermal
and Mechanical Design Guidelines (see
