Introduction
1.1

Objective

The purpose of this guide is to describe the reference thermal solution and design
parameters required for the Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 5400 Series.
It is also the intent of this document to comprehend and demonstrate the processor
cooling solution features and requirements. Furthermore, this document provides an
understanding of the processor thermal characteristics, and discusses guidelines for
meeting the thermal requirements imposed over the entire life of the processor. The
thermal/mechanical solutions described in this document are intended to aid
component and system designers in the development and evaluation of processor
compatible thermal/mechanical solutions.
1.2

Scope

The thermal/mechanical solutions described in this document pertain to a solution(s)
intended for use with the Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 5400 Series in 1U, 2U,
2U+ and workstation form factors systems. This document contains the mechanical
and thermal requirements of the processor cooling solution. In case of conflict, the data
in the Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 5400 Series Datasheet supersedes any data
in this document. Additional information is provided as a reference in the appendices.
