NOTES
The thermal data for the above table was determined while the units were running multi-
threaded test software used to stress CPU, memory and I/O functions simultaneously. This test
load is generally heavier than a standard embedded application. There may be some variance in
users’ thermal results based on the end application.
No XMCs were fitted to the units used in determining the above figures. Fitting an XMC could
decrease the maximum frequency/temperature achievable by the SBC329, depending on the
XMC’s power dissipation and thermal solution.
The processor speed can be fixed in the BIOS. See
