Cooling Requirements
The Motorola MCPN750A family of Single Board Computers is specified, 
designed, and tested to meet thermal performance requirements when 
installed in a properly designed CompactPCI chassis and supplied with 55 
degree C air flow at sea level. Tests were conducted with a Motorola 
CPX8216 system. Case temperatures of critical, high power density 
integrated circuits are monitored to ensure component vendors’ 
specifications are not exceeded.
The MCPN750A has been shown to operate reliably with an average air 
flow measurement of 355 LFM on the primary side of the board, and 450 
LFM on the secondary side of the board. Under these circumstances, all 
devices on the board operated within the vendor’s temperature 
requirements as noted in the manufacturer’s specification.
