Package Thermal Specifications and 
Considerations
This section lists the thermal parameters of the Intel
®
 Itanium
®
 Processor 9300 Series 
and Intel
®
 Itanium
®
 Processor 9500 Series package. See 
 
for 
the T
CASE
 design target at Thermal Design Power (TDP) and the minimum Tcontrol 
specification for the Intel
®
 Itanium
®
 Processor 9300 Series and the Intel
®
 Itanium
®
 
Processor 9500 Series, respectively. The case temperature is defined as the 
temperature measured at the center of the processor substrate on the top surface of 
the IHS. 
Notes:
1.
The processor maximum temperature is reached at T
PROCHOT
. That is when DT readout is equal to zero. 
2.
Intel recommends that the thermal solution designs target the processor Thermal Design Power (TDP), 
instead of its spontaneous maximum power consumption.
3.
Processor TDP is determined at the T
CASE 
equal to T
CASE
@TDP
4.
Tcase is provided for the purpose of designing a processor compatible thermal solution.
5.
The THERMALERT and TCONTROL values are temperature offsets below T
PROCHOT
.
T
CASE
 cannot be used as proxy for power dissipation due to the variation in work load 
imbalances between cores.
TDPmax is 185 W or 155 W or 130 W depending on the SKU.
The combined max short-term (<250 ms) power for the Ararat supplies (VCC_CORE, 
VCC_UNCORE and VCC_CACHE) is limited to 230 W, and the total of all supplies is 
limited to 250 W for the 185 W SKUs. 
T
CASE
 cannot be used as proxy for power dissipation due to the variation in work load 
imbalances between cores.
TDPmax is 170W or 130W depending on the SKU.
 contains dimensions for the thermocouple location on the Intel
®
 Itanium
®
 
Processor 9300 Series and Intel
®
 Itanium
®
 Processor 9500 Series. This location must 
be used for the placement of a thermocouple for case temperature measurement.
