Chapter 1 Introduction
This document specifies performance requirements for the design of thermal and mechanical
solutions for socket F (1207) processors, utilizing AMD 64-bit technology. Detailed drawings,
descriptions, and design targets are provided to help manufacturers, vendors, and engineers meet the
requirements for the socket F (1207) processors.
1.1 Summary of Requirements
To allow optimal reliability of a processor, the thermal and cooling solution dissipates heat from that
processor operating at the thermal design power. This document specifies the required values for the
thermal and mechanical parameters of systems based on socket F (1207) processors.
