Chapter 3 Thermal Design of Platforms Using
the AMD Processor-In-a-Box (PIB) Thermal Solution
This chapter describes the motherboard component height restrictions, thermal-solution design requirements, sample heat sinks, and attachment methods for platforms using the AMD Processor-In­a-Box (PIB) thermal solution for socket F (1207) processors.

3.1 Motherboard Component Height Restrictions

The mounting solution for the heat sink calls for a standard motherboard keep-out region and mounting holes for the processor. Figure 2 shows an overview of the motherboard component height restrictions for platforms using the PIB thermal solution for socket F (1207) processors.

Depending on the system features and layout, more space around the socket may be available for the thermal solution than is shown in Figure 2 on page 15. This space permits heat sink designs with better thermal performance.
Appendix A on page 37 shows a complete, detailed set of keep-out drawings for the AMD PIB thermal solution for socket F (1207).

3.2 Thermal Solution Design Requirements

T able 2 provides the design-target specifications that must be met for the processor to operate reliably in a typical platform using the AMD PIB thermal solution for socket F (1207) processors.

3.3 Sample Heat Sinks and Attachment Methods

The heat sink, fan, mounting spring clip, and thermal interface material used for the AMD PIB thermal solution for socket F (1207) processors are the same as the heat sink, fan, mounting spring clip, and thermal interface material used for systems based on the socket 940 processor.
The backplate and retention frame are different from those used in the socket 940 processor. The EMC shield implemented in the socket 940-based systems is not recommended for AMD PIB thermal solutions for socket F (1207) processors.

3.3.1 Backplate Assembly

The backplate is mounted on the backside of the motherboard and enhances local stiffness to support shock and vibration loads acting on the heat sink. The backplate assembly prevents excessive motherboard warpage in the area near the processor. Without a backplate, excessive warpage could cause serious damage to electrical connections of the processor socket and integrated circuit packages surrounding the processor. The backplate also serves as a stiffener plate for the LGA socket.
The reference backplate is made from a 1/16-inch, hard-milled steel, has an overall thickness of 0.138 inch (3.5 mm), including stiffening ribs, and has a mounting-hole pitch of 3.5 inches. To accommodate the capacitors on the backside of the board, there is a square hole in the center of the backplate.

32800 Rev. 3.00 August 2006
Thermal Design Guide for Socket F (1207) Processors
Note: Do not cut entirely through the center rib. Doing so will compromise the stiffness of the
backplate.
The plate uses two PennEngineering (PEM) standoffs that serve multiple purposes. The PEM standoffs serve as attachment points for the retention frame screws. They also align the backplate properly to the motherboard. Features in the retention frame slide over the standoffs and allow the installation of the screws with a minimum chance of cross threading. Additionally, four M3.5 PEM standoffs in the backplate serve as attachment points for the socket.
The insulator prevents the backplate from electrically shorting to the motherboard. A pressure­sensitive adhesive in the insulator keeps the backplate in place against the motherboard during assembly. The insulator also is thick enough to prevent any significant capacitive coupling between the motherboard and backplate.

3.3.2 Retention Frame

The plastic retention frame, made of 20% glass-filled Lexan, is a two-piece implementation rather than the single-piece frame used for socket 940. This change accommodates the larger foot-print of socket F (1207) processors.
The retention frame serves multiple purposes. The retention frame aligns the heat sink and provides a stop for the heat sink in large shock-force events. The retention frame and backplate are attached to the motherboard by the motherboard vendor. Two screws securely hold the backplate and retention frame together. The two mounting tabs on the retention frame serve as attachment points for the heat sink spring clip.

Systems
This chapter describes the motherboard component-height restrictions, thermal-solution design requirements, sample heat sinks, and attachment methods for custom 1U-2P systems based on socket F (1207) processors.
Note: These keep-outs are defined for custom rack mount equipment to optimize thermal and
acoustic performance in these systems. These keep-outs are not compliant with AMD Processor-In-a-Box (PIB) thermal solutions.

4.1 Motherboard Component Height Restrictions

The mounting solution for the heat sink calls for a standard motherboard keep-out region and mounting holes for the processor. Figure 4 shows an overview of the motherboard component height restrictions for custom 1U-2P systems based on the thermal solution for socket F (1207) processors.

The following sections describe the mechanical requirements of the components shown in Figure 5.

4.3.1 Backplate Assembly

For details on the backplate assembly, see section 3.3.1 on page 18.
Note: The backplate for this custom design has a mounting-hole pitch of 4.1 inches.

4.3.2 Spring Screws

The spring screws are designed to apply 75 lbs of force to the heat sink. This force is necessary to help prevent the heat sink from lifting off the package during shock- or vibration-induced events.

32800 Rev. 3.02 3.0 0 August 2006
Thermal Design Guide for Socket F (1207) Processors
Lifting the heat sink away from the processor can result in damage to the processor contact pads, the socket contacts, or the socket solder-ball joints. Maintaining the spring force is important for the life of the processor and the socket and for repeated installations and upgrades of the processor.

4.3.3 Heat Sink

Figure 6 shows a picture of the reference design heat sink for 1U-2P systems. The footprint of the heat sink is 87 mm x 74 mm. The heat sink weighs 420 g and has aluminum fins soldered to a copper base. The copper base tapers from a thickness of 6 mm at the center to 1.5 mm at the edges. This tapering provides optimum heat-spreading performance from the processor to the heat sink while keeping the heat sink weight within specification. The fin geometry is designed to provide optimized thermal performance in combination with the fans, as described in Section 4.3.4, on page 26, in a typical 1U-2P system.
Figure 6. High Performance Heat Sink for Custom 1U-2P Systems

Other fan and heat sink combinations may yield adequate thermal performance. The system designer must ensure that the thermal solution provides required cooling for the processor for the given system layout and flow characteristics.
Because the processor-mounting surface extends above the surface of the cam box on the socket, the heat sink bottom can be flat. The heat sink must have a flat surface of at least 40 mm x 40 mm, centered over the processor.
Figure 7 shows the measured thermal performance vs. flow rate for a slightly shorter version of this heat sink (3.5" hole pitch vs. 4.1" hole pitch). This data represents the expected performance of this heat sink on a dual-core socket F (1207) processor. Based on flow tests on the AMD reference 1U-2P system, the flow through the heat sink is estimated to be approximately 20 cubic feet per minute (CFM). Figure 7 shows that this corresponds to case-to-ambient thermal resistance of 0.24°C/W. This case-to-ambient thermal resistance has been confirmed through system thermal tests. The requirement (see Table 4 on page 22) is 0.26°C/W.

in 90 nm Process

4.3.4 Fans

AMD has tested the heat sink described in Section 4.3 on page 22 with a row of five 40 mm x 50 mm x 56 mm fans (Delta Part number GFB0412EHS) in a typical 1U-2P system. The fan has a 27.3-CFM maximum flow rate and a 1.63-inches water maximum pressure head. The heat sinks are ducted so the flow from two fans enters each of the processor heat sinks.

Thermal Design Guide for Socket F (1207) Processors

4.3.5 Thermal Interface Material

The heat sink contacts the top surface of the processor package and utilizes the thermal interface material between the processor lid and the heat sink. AMD recommends using a high performance grease such as Shin-Etsu 7783D or Dow Corning TC-5022. AMD does not recommend using phase change materials between the heat sink and the processor. Phase-change materials develop high adhesion forces between the heat sink and processor when the material is in the solid phase. This strong adhesive force can cause the processor to stick to the heat sink, making heat sink removal difficult and damaging the socket solder balls.

Chapter 5 Thermal Design of Custom 2U-4P
Systems
This chapter describes the motherboard component-height restrictions, thermal-solution design requirements, sample heat sinks, and attachment methods for custom 2U-4P systems based on socket F (1207) processors.
Note: These keep-outs are defined for custom rack mount equipment to optimize thermal and
acoustic performance in these systems. These keep-outs are not compliant with AMD Processor-In-a-Box (PIB) thermal solutions.

5.1 Motherboard Component Height Restrictions

The mounting solution for the heat sink calls for a standard motherboard keep-out region and mounting holes for the processor. Figure 8 shows an overview of the motherboard component height restrictions for custom 2U-4P systems based on the thermal solution for socket F (1207) processors.

Chapter 5 Thermal Design of Custom 2U-4P Systems 29
Thermal Design Guide for Socket F (1207) Processors

Depending on the system features and layout, more space around the socket may be available for the thermal solution than is shown in Figure 8 on page 29. This space permits heat sink designs with better thermal performance.
Appendix C on page 53 shows a complete, detailed set of keep-out drawings for custom 2U-4P systems based on socket F (1207) processors.

5.2 Thermal Solution Design Requirements

Table 7 provides the design-target specifications that must be met for socket F (1207) processors to operate reliably in a typical 2U-4P system based on socket F (1207) processors.

Note: The backplate for this custom design has a mounting-hole pitch of 4.1 inches.

5.3.2 Spring Clip

The spring clip is designed to apply 75 lbs of force to the center of the heat sink. This force is necessary to help prevent the heat sink from lifting off of the package during shock or vibration­induced events. Lifting the heat sink away from the processor can result in damage to the processor contact pads, the socket contacts, or the socket solder-ball joints. Maintaining the spring force is important for the life of the processor and for repeated installations and upgrades of the processor.
The spring clip material is heat-treatable spring steel, SK7. AMD strongly recommends using SK7 or an equivalent material for the spring clip. The clip should be plated after heat treatment for cosmetic and anti-corrosive reasons. Table 9 gives the chemical composition of SK7. The heat treatment used should bring the ultimate strength of the material to a minimum of 1,300 megapascals (MPa) or 189 kilopounds per square inch (kpsi), and it should bring the yield strength to 940 MPa (or 136 kpsi). Other materials commonly used for heat sink spring clips have been shown to yield under the high load of the initial spring-clip deflection and become deformed so that the spring clip can no longer apply the same load.
Table 9. Chemical Element of SK7 Spring Steel
Element Percentage of the Element
C 0.60-0.70
Si Maximum 0.35
Mn 0.80-0.90
P Maximum 0.030 S Maximum 0.030
Fe Remaining balance

5.3.3 Retention Frame

The plastic retention frame, made of 20% glass-filled Lexan, is a two-piece implementation rather than the single-piece frame used for socket 940. This change accommodates the larger foot-print of socket F (1207) processors.
The retention frame serves multiple purposes. The retention frame aligns the heat sink and provides a stop for the heat sink in large shock-force events. The retention frame and backplate are attached to the motherboard by the motherboard vendor. Two screws securely hold the backplate and retention frame together. The two mounting tabs on the retention frame serve as attachment points for the heat sink spring clip.

5.3.4 Heat Sink

Figure 10 on page 34 shows a picture of the reference design heat sink for 2U-4P systems. The footprint of the reference design heat sink is 92 mm x 58 mm. The heat sink weighs 378 g and has an aluminum fin stack soldered to the copper base. The copper base tapers from a thickness of 7 mm at
Chapter 5 Thermal Design of Custom 2U-4P Systems 33

32800 Rev. 3.00 August 2006
the center to 2.5 mm at the edges. The heat sink also has three heat pipes soldered to the base and connected to the top of the fin stack to improve fin efficiency. This design provides optimum heat spreading performance from the processor to the heat sink. The fin geometry has been designed to provide optimized thermal performance in combination with the fans, as described in Section 5.3.5, on page 35, in a typical 2U-4P system.
Figure 10. High Performance Heat Sink for Custom 2U-4P Systems
Table 10 shows the parameters of the aluminum fins for the high-performance heat sink shown in Figure 10.

Length Height (at Center) Height (at Edges) Thickness Pitch No of Fins
92 mm 32.5 mm 37 mm 0.2 mm 1.5 mm 39
Other fan and heat sink combinations may yield adequate thermal performance. The system designer must ensure that the thermal solution provides required cooling for the processor for the given system layout and flow characteristics.
Because the processor-mounting surface extends above the surface of the cam box on the socket, the heat sink bottom can be flat. The heat sink must have a flat surface of at least 40 mm x 40 mm, centered over the processor.
Figure 11 shows the measured thermal performance vs. flow rate for this heat sink. This data represents the expected performance of this heat sink on a dual-core socket F (1207) processor. Based
34 Thermal Design of Custom 2U-4P Systems Chapter 5
32800 Rev. 3.02 August 2006
Thermal Design Guide for Socket F (1207) Processors
on flow simulations of an AMD reference 2U system, the flow-through of the heat sink is approximately 18 CFM. Figure 1 1 shows that this flow rate corresponds to a case-to-ambient thermal resistance of 0.22°C/W. This case-to-ambient thermal resistance exceeds requirements (see Table 7 on page 30).
Figure 11. Thermal Performance Chart of Heat Sink When Used with a Dual-Core Processor
in 90 nm Process

5.3.5 Fans

AMD has conducted simulations of the heat sink described in Section 5.3.4 on page 33 with two 60 mm x 60 mm x 38 mm fans (Delta Part number FFB0812EHE-HS2) in series, that is, back to back. The fans have a maximum flow rate of 80.2 CFM and a maximum pressure drop of 0.8 inches of water. The heat sinks are ducted so the flow from the two fans enters the processor heat sinks with some bypass. The bypass is designed to cool the core VRM.

5.3.6 Thermal Interface Material

The heat sink makes contact with the top surface of the processor package utilizing the thermal interface material between the processor lid and the heat sink. AMD recommends using a high performance grease such as Shin-Etsu 7783D or Dow Corning TC-5022. AMD does not recommend using phase change materials between the heat sink and the processor. Phase-change materials develop high adhesion forces between the heat sink and processor when the material is in the solid phase. This strong adhesive force may cause the processor to stick to the heat sink, making heat sink removal difficult and damaging the socket solder balls.
