Cooling Installation
Assembly Instruction:
•
Flip over the SBC and locate the position of the CPU
•
Place retention frame on the bottom side of the board with insulating foil facing the PCB and standoffs inserted to PCB's mounting holes.
•
Remove the CSP's protection pull tab foil from the phase changer and carefully place the CSP to the CPU.
•
Insert assembling screws.
•
Hold the CSP with one hand so that it does not tilt while tightening the screws.
•
Slightly tighten each of the 4 screws so that they hold the CSP in place. To do so, start with one screw and then slightly tighten the other
screws in a crossover pattern. All the while keep holding the cooling adapter straight with one hand.
•
Now you can fully tighten the screws. Once again start with one and then continue to tighten the other screws in a crossover pattern. All the
while keep holding the cooling adapter straight with one hand
Caution
The congatec cooling solutions are designed for commercial temperature range only (0° to 60°C). Therefore, do not use the congatec CSP
in temperatures above 60°C or below 0°C. If an end user’s system operates above 60°C or below 0°C, or is assembled with a non-congatec
cooling solution, then the end user must use or design an optimized thermal solution that meets the needs of their application.
For adequate heat dissipation, follow the assembly instruction above. Apply thread-locking fluid on the screws if the CSP is used in a high
shock and/or vibration environment.
For applications that require vertically-mounted CSP, use only cooling solution that secure the thermal stacks with fixing post. Without the
fixing post feature, the thermal stacks may move.
Also, do not exceed the maximum torque specification for the cooling solution screws. Doing so may damage the SBC.
