Get the datasheet for the chip. It will provide maximum die temperature, power dissipation, and thermal resistance figures. Then get data on the thermal grease and the heat sink thermal resistance to still air (the latter may be hard to find, but you can calculate it from measurements). With that information you can calculate the maximum permissible still air temperature. Or you might get lucky and find exactly the information you need on the Web. -- John Hasler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
