Thermal/Cooling Requirements
The nanoX-TCR is designed to operate at its maximum CPU speeds of 600MHz, 1.3GHz, and 1.6GHz and
requires a thermal solution to cool the CPU, PCH, and voltage regulators. ADLINK offers one optional
cooling solution as well as a heat spreader platform on which to build a cooling solution. (See Table 2-7 for
descriptions of cooling options.)
