Installing The Cpu And Heatsink - Advantech MIC-3359 User Manual

of power as you connect a jumper or install a board may damage sensitive
electronic components.
3、 Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before you touch your CPU
board. Be particularly careful not to touch the chip connectors.
Modern integrated electronic devices, especially CPUs and memory chips, are
extremely sensitive to static electric discharges and fields. Keep the board in its
antistatic packaging when it is not installed in the PC, and place it on a static
dissipative mat when you are working with it. Wear a grounding wrist strap for
continuous protection.
1.6 Installing CPU and Heatsink
The MIC-3359 supports the Intel® Pentium-4, the 478-pin package FCPGA, and the
Mobile Pentium-4 Processor. In order to meet critical environmental conditions and
size limitations, Advantech designed a heat sink to fulfill the primary requirements of
the MIC-3359. Please refer to Figure 1-3 for an illustration of the heat-sink and
thermal pad used for the MIC-3359.
The MIC-3359 should be fastened to a heat sink supporting Intel Pentium 4 in the
factory. When the user installs the CPU, the following steps should be followed:
1、 Remove the screws from the solder side cover. During this step, the front panel
should also become loose. Be careful about any improper disassembly
procedure that could cause any damage of SBC.
2、 Remove the last four screws from the heat-sink, and then lossen the heat sink
for CPU installation. Apply the silicone heat sink compound, found in the
accessory bag, to the CPU.
3、 Follow the reverse procedure to replace the heat-sink and solder side cover.
Note: If you use a Mobile Pentium 4 processor, please don't use the silicone
heat sink compound. You need to insert a heat pad between the processor
and the heat-sink. The heat pad is in the accessory bag. The heat pad should
be positioned between the heat-sink and the CPU. It is fragile, so please be
careful during disassembly. If you are using a heat pad other than the one
issued by Advantech, be aware that it may not absorb a sufficient amount of
heat.
