Environmental Reliability Requirements
The environmental reliability requirements for the reference thermal solution are
shown in Table 3 and Table 4. These should be considered as general guidelines.
Validation test plans should be defined by the user based on anticipated use
conditions and resulting reliability requirements.
The ATX testing will be performed with the sample board mounted on a test fixture
and includes a processor heatsink with a mass of 550g. The test profiles are
unpackaged board level limits.
