Processor Package Mechanical Specifications
3.1.2
Processor Component Keep-Out Zones
The processor may contain components on the substrate that define component 
keep-out zone requirements. A thermal and mechanical solution design must not 
intrude into the required keep-out zones. Decoupling capacitors are typically mounted 
to either the topside or land-side of the package substrate. See 
 for keep-out zones. The location and quantity of package capacitors may 
change due to manufacturing efficiencies but will remain within the component keep-in.
3.1.3
Package Loading Specifications
 provides dynamic and static load specifications for the processor package. 
These mechanical maximum load limits should not be exceeded during heatsink 
assembly, shipping conditions, or standard use condition. Also, any mechanical system 
or component testing should not exceed the maximum limits. The processor package 
substrate should not be used as a mechanical reference or load-bearing surface for 
thermal and mechanical solution. The minimum loading specification must be 
maintained by any thermal and mechanical solutions.
.
Notes:
1.
These specifications apply to uniform compressive loading in a direction normal to the processor IHS.
2.
This is the maximum static force that can be applied by the heatsink and retention solution to maintain the 
heatsink and processor interface. 
3.
These specifications are based on limited testing for design characterization. Loading limits are for the 
package only and do not include the limits of the processor socket. 
4.
Dynamic loading is defined as an 11-ms duration average load superimposed on the static load 
requirement.
3.1.4
Package Handling Guidelines
 includes a list of guidelines on package handling in terms of recommended 
maximum loading on the processor IHS relative to a fixed substrate. These package 
handling loads may be experienced during heatsink removal.
3.1.5
Package Insertion Specifications
The processor can be inserted into and removed from a LGA1567 socket 15 times.
