3.0 Thermal Specifications
3.1 Case Temperature and Thermal Design Power
To ensure proper operation and reliability of the Intel 6300ESB ICH component, the case and
junction temperatures must be at or below the values specified in
Table 3 . System and/or
component level thermal solutions are required to maintain the case temperature below the
maximum temperature specification while dissipating the thermal design power (TDP) listed in
Table 3 .
3.2 Case Temperature Metrology
The component case temperature should be measured by attaching a thermocouple to the geometric
center of the package case top. Refer to
Appendix A, “Mechanical Drawings” for package
dimensions.
