CP6940 User Guide
// 71
When developing applications using the CP6940, the system integrator must be aware of the overall system thermal
requirements. A system chassis must be provided which satisfy these requirements.
Measurements proofed that following conditions (maximum ambient temperature under maximum load) are possible
while all temperatures of on-board components stay below their critical thresholds..

As Kontron assumes no responsibility for any damage to the CP6940 or other equipment
resulting from overheating any of the components, it is highly recommended that system
integrators as well as end users confirm that the operational environment of the CP6940
complies with the thermal considerations set forth in this document.
