NI 9695 sbRIO Thermal Solution

Mounting and Environmental Considerations

The heat spreader provided in NI-9695 is intended to improve the thermal 
performance of sbRIO by removing heat from the components that may 
limit the device's maximum operating temperature. The mounting 
configuration of the heat spreader can also influence the device's maximum 
operating temperature. The spreader can either be mounted with its flat face 
against a base mounting surface (ideally a thermally conductive surface) or 
with the flat face exposed to air. When the heat spreader's flat face is 
exposed to air, a heat sink can potentially be added to the face in order 
increase the heat spreader's ability to convect heat to the surrounding 
environment. The best orientation will vary by application depending on 
factors like the base mounting material, system enclosure material, 
interactions with other heat sources in the system, size restraints, and air 
flow availability.

Gap Pad

Pre-cut gap pad pieces are provided to act as the thermal interface material
between the heat spreader and sbRIO components. Installing the heat 
spreader will require two large gap pad pieces and three small pieces, 
making one of the provided small pieces a spare.
