Thermal Specifications
Notes:
1.
Please refer to 
 for discrete points that constitute the thermal profile.
2.
Implementation of the Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor L5408
 
Thermal Profile should result in virtually 
no TCC activation. Furthermore, utilization of thermal solutions that do not meet the processor Thermal 
Profile will result in increased probability of TCC activation and may incur measurable performance loss. 
(See 
 for details on TCC activation).
3.
The Nominal Thermal Profile must be used for all normal operating conditions, or for products that do not 
require NEBS Level 3 compliance.
4.
The Short-Term Thermal Profile may only be used for short-term excursions to higher ambient operating 
temperatures, not to exceed 96 hours per instance, 360 hours per year, and a maximum of 15 instances 
per year, as compliant with NEBS Level 3.
5.
Utilization of a thermal solution that exceeds the Short-Term Thermal Profile, or which operates at the 
Short-Term Thermal Profile for a duration longer than the limits specified in Note 4 above, do not meet the 
processor’s thermal specifications and may result in permanent damage to the processor.
6.
Refer to the Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor L5408 Series in Embedded Applications 
Thermal/Mechanical Design Guidelines (TMDG) for system and environmental implementation details.
