Boxed Processor Specifications
7.3.2
Variable Speed Fan
The boxed processor fan will operate at different speeds over a short range of internal
chassis temperatures. This allows the processor fan to operate at a lower speed and
noise level, while internal chassis temperatures are low. If internal chassis temperature
increases beyond a lower set point, the fan speed will rise linearly with the internal
temperature until the higher set point is reached. At that point, the fan speed is at its
maximum. As fan speed increases, so does fan noise levels. Systems should be
designed to provide adequate air around the boxed processor fan heatsink that remains
cooler then lower set point. These set points, represented in
,
can vary by a few degrees from fan heatsink to fan heatsink. The internal chassis
temperature should be kept below 38 ºC. Meeting the processor's temperature
) is the responsibility of the system integrator.
The motherboard must supply a constant +12 V to the processor's power header to
ensure proper operation of the variable speed fan for the boxed processor. Refer to
for the specific requirements.
