Figure 27. Example: Defining Heatsink Preload Meeting Board Deflection Limit 

 

A.2.5

 

Additional Considerations 

Intel recommends to design to {d_BOL – d_ref = 0.15 mm} at BOL when EOL 

conditions are not known or difficult to assess  

The following information is given for illustration only. It is based on the reference 

keep-out, assuming there is no fixture that changes board stiffness: 

d_ref is expected to be 0.18 mm on average, and be as high as 0.22 mm 

As a result, the board should be able to deflect 0.37 mm minimum at BOL 

Additional deflection as high as 0.09 mm may be necessary to account for additional 

creep effects impacting the board/clip assembly. As a result, designs could see as 

much as 0.50mm total downward board deflection under the socket. 

In addition to board deflection, other elements need to be considered to define the 

space needed for the downward board total displacement under load, like the potential 

interference of through-hole mount component pin tails of the board with a 

mechanical fixture on the back of the board. 

NOTES:

 

 

1.

 

The heatsink preload must remain below the maximum load limit of the package 

at all times (Refer to processor 

datasheet

2.

 

Board deflection should not exceed motherboard manufacturer specifications.
