<strong>PowerPC</strong> <strong>740</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>PowerPC</strong> <strong>750</strong> <strong>Microprocessor</strong>Figure 24. Thermalloy #2328B Pin-Fin Heat Sink-to-Ambient Thermal Resistance vs. Air flow VelocityThermalloy #2328B Pin-fin Heat Sink(25 x 28 x 15 mm)8Heat Sink Thermal Resistance (×°C/W)76543210 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 3.5Approach Air Velocity (m/s)Assuming an air velocity of 0.5m/s, we have an effective θ SA of 7°C/W, thusT J = 30°C + 5°C + (.03°C/W +1.0°C/W + 7°C/W) × 4.5W,resulting in a junction temperature of approximately 71°C which is well within the maximum operating temperatureof the component.Other heat sinks are offered by other manufacturers.Though the junction-to-ambient <strong>and</strong> the heat sink-to-ambient thermal resistances are a common figure-ofmeritused for comparing the thermal performance of various microelectronic packaging technologies, oneshould exercise caution when only using this metric in determining thermal management because no singleparameter can adequately describe three-dimensional heat flow. The final chip-junction operating temperatureis not only a function of the component-level thermal resistance, but the system-level design <strong>and</strong> its operatingconditions. In addition to the component's power dissipation, a number of factors affect the finaloperating die-junction temperature. These factors might include air flow, board population (local heat flux ofadjacent components), heat sink efficiency, heat sink attach, next-level interconnect technology, system airtemperature rise, etc.Page 49 Version 2.0 9/6/2002
