Tesla P100 PCIe
GPU Accelerator PB-08248-001_v01 | iv
OVERVIEW
The NVIDIA® Tesla® P100 GPU Accelerator for PCIe is a dual-slot 10.5 inch PCI Express
®
Gen3 card with a single NVIDIA
a passive heat sink for cooling, which requires system air flow to properly operate the
card within its thermal limits. The Tesla P100 PCIe supports double precision (FP64),
single precision (FP32) and half precision (FP16) compute tasks, unified virtual memory
and page migration engine.
Pascal™ GP100 graphics processing unit (GPU). It uses
™
For performance optimization, NVIDIA GPU Boost
feature is supported. By adjusting
the GPU clock dynamically, maximum performance is achieved within the power cap
limit.
Tesla P100 PCIe boards are shipped with ECC enabled by default to protect the GPU’s
memory interface and the on-board memories. ECC protects the memory interface by
detecting any single, double, and all odd-bit errors. The GPU will replay any memory
transaction that have an ECC error until the data transfer is error-free. ECC protects the
DRAM content by fixing any single-bit errors and detecting double-bit errors. There is
no replay associated with ECC. The Tesla P100 PCIe with HBM2 memory has native
support for ECC and has no ECC overhead, both in memory capacity and bandwidth.
For more information on compute capabilities, HBM2, unified virtual memory, and page
migration engine visit NVIDIA official website.
The Tesla P100 for PCIe is available in two memory configurations:
Tesla P100 PCIe with 16GB HBM2
Tesla P100 PCIe with 12GB HBM2
As a board design, both the memory configurations are identical and this product brief
covers both configurations.

System Airflow Requirements
The Tesla P100 PCIe board employs a bidirectional heat sink, which accepts airflow
either left-to-right or right-to-left directions.
Figure 1. Tesla P100 PCIe Airflow Directions with Optional I/O Bracket
Airflow Rate vs. Heat Sink Inlet Temperature
Table 6 specifies the minimum volumetric airflow rate for the Tesla P100 PCIe boards at
the specified air temperature points measured at the card’s inlet. These data points
represent the conditions under which the board was qualified.
The following table applies to both the Tesla P100-PCIe 16GB and the Tesla P100-PCIe
12GB.

Notes:
1
The minimum airflow is assumed to be a fully ducted airflow through the product’s heat sink. System
thermal designs must account for any air bypass the system may allow.
2
The airflow and air inlet temperature data provided in this table is a qualification reference point, not an
absolute specification. Refer to the system design guide for more details regarding the system airflow
design guidance.
3
This is the minimum required airflow when input power is provided to the card regardless of heat sink
inlet temperature or the system’s operating mode. For example, if the system is in idle mode but the 12V
input rails to the card are active, the system needs to provide the specified minimum airflow.

Table 7 provides the Input EDP Continuous specifications for input rails. The Input EDP
Continuous is specified over a 1 second time scale. The peak input power over a 1
second moving average will not exceed the specified Input EDP Continuous value.

Design Discussion
Figure 6. Straight Extender
Using the standard NVIDIA extender ensures greatest forward compatibility with
future NVIDIA product offerings.
If the standard extender will not work, OEMs may design a custom attach method
using the extender mounting holes on the heat sink baseplate. The extender mounting
holes will vary among NVIDIA products, so designing for flexibility is
recommended.
