Introduction
The objective of thermal management is to ensure that the temperatures of all
components in a system are maintained within functional limits. The functional
temperature limit is the range within which the electrical circuits can be expected to
meet specified performance requirements. Operation outside the functional limit can
degrade system performance, cause logic errors, or cause component and/or system
damage. Temperatures exceeding the maximum operating limits may result in
irreversible changes in the operating characteristics of the component. The goal of this
document is to provide an understanding of the operating limits of the Intel® ICH9
component.
As the complexity of computer systems increases, so do power dissipation
requirements. The additional power of next generation systems must be properly
dissipated. Heat can be dissipated using improved system cooling, selective use of
ducting, and/or passive heatsinks.
The simplest and most cost-effective method is to improve the inherent system
cooling characteristics of the ICH9 through careful design and placement of fans,
vents, and ducts. When additional cooling is required, component thermal solutions
may be implemented in conjunction with system thermal solutions. The size of the fan
or heatsink can be varied to balance size and space constraints with acoustic noise.
This document presents the conditions and requirements to properly design a cooling
solution for systems that implement the ICH9 component. Properly designed solutions
provide adequate cooling to maintain the ICH9 component case temperature at or
below thermal specifications. This is accomplished by providing a low local-ambient
temperature, ensuring adequate local airflow, and minimizing the case to localambient thermal resistance. By maintaining the ICH9 component case temperature at
or below maximum specifications, a system designer can ensure the proper
functionality, performance, and reliability of this component.
Note: This document only applies to the desktop implementation of the Intel® ICH9
component.

Controller Hub with RAID capabilities.

Product Specifications

2.1

Package Description
The ICH9 component is available in a 676 ball, 31 mm square mBGA package shown
in Figure 6 in Appendix B. The die size is 8.19 mm [0.323in] x 7.91 mm [0.311in].

2.2

Package Loading Specifications
Table 1 provides static load specifications for the ICH9 package. This mechanical
maximum load limit should not be exceeded during heatsink assembly, shipping
conditions, or standard use condition. Also, any mechanical system or component
testing should not exceed the maximum limit. The chipset package substrate should
not be used as a mechanical reference or load-bearing surface for the thermal and
mechanical solution.

NOTES:
1.
These specifications apply to uniform compressive loading in a direction normal to the
chipset package
2.
This is the maximum force that can be applied by a heatsink retention clip. The clip
must also provide the minimum specified load on the ICH package for the thermal
interface material.
3.
These specifications are based on limited testing for design characterization. Loading
limits are for the package only.

2.3

Thermal and Power Specifications
To ensure proper operation and reliability of the ICH9 component, the case
temperature (TC) must be at or below the maximum value TC-MAX specified when
dissipating TDP power listed in Table 2. The specifications define five configurations
with slightly different requirements, which represent the expected usage of the ICH9
component on desktop motherboards. Configuration 3 is the configuration used for the
Intel reference thermal solution analysis and design.
Note: The TC-MAX specification is a requirement for sustained power dissipation equal to
TDP. When the component is dissipating less than TDP, the case temperature must be
maintained at temperatures less than TC-MAX
The actual ICH9 power dissipation is dependent on various factors including: system
configuration, bandwidth & utilization of the available and connected ports, the
component temperature & voltage and part-to-part variance. The TDP values assume

3.
The number of devices refers to both the number of ports supported on the board as
well as the quantity of devices attached. Any port not routed to a connector is assumed
to be functionally disabled according to Intel guidelines.
4.
Configuration 3 is the configuration for Thermal Design Power and is the target for the
Intel reference design.
5.
The Idle power references ICH9 core and I/O interfaces idle with all low power features
enabled. For Energy Star Configuration idle power, though there is no PCI Express and
PCI devices connected, PCI Express and PCI are not functionally disabled.
6.
Without a heatsink, most of the heat dissipated by ICH9 goes through the PCB, with the
PCB acting as a heat spreader and then into the ambient air. When a heatsink is
installed on the package, more power is now being pulled through the case. As a result
the maximum case temperature must be maintained at lower level than without a
heatsink to remain within specification.

The ICH9 package has a molded plastic encapsulant, and because plastic is such a
poor heat conductor, the relative importance of the motherboard heat transfer
characteristics increases. The heat transfer capability of the motherboard in the area
of the ICH should be characterized. Knowledge of these heat transfer paths can be
used to determine if an ICH heatsink is required.

Thermal Design Guidelines

Product Specifications

In addition, high power PCI Express* graphic cards may alter the local ambient
temperature as well as the airflow patterns in the vicinity of the chipset. Systems that
have interface utilization less than that of the TDP configuration may be at power
levels that may not require a heatsink.
In conclusion, thermal validation should be performed in your anticipated system
environment, in particular measuring the ICH9 case temperature to ensure it does not
exceed its maximum case temperature specification. To evaluate the capability of your
system for cooling the ICH9, the following system level tests are suggested to assess
ICH9 case temperature compliancy:
1.

Shipping configuration(s) with expected end user add-in cards and I/O peripherals
installed.

2.

All available slots and IO ports populated (only worst case if all I/O is fully
populated including SATA, USB, etc.).

For completeness, both room ambient conditions (approximately 23 °C, to simulate
impact of fan speed control) and worse case maximum external temperature (35 °C)
conditions should be considered in the validation test suite. If the ICH9 case
temperature is above the published Tc-max – without heatsink in any test scenario, a
heatsink is required.
If you determine that the ICH9 package requires a heatsink in your system
configuration, please refer to Appendix A for the reference ICH9 heatsink vendor
information.

2.4

TCONTROL Limit
Intel® Quiet System Technology (Intel® QST) monitors an embedded thermal sensor.
The maximum operating limit when monitoring this thermal sensor is TCONTROL. For the
Intel® ICH9 family this value has been defined as 101°C. This value should be
programmed into the appropriate fields of Intel QST as the maximum sensor
temperature for operation of the Intel ICH9 family

Thermal Metrology

3

Thermal Metrology
The system designer must make temperature measurements in order to accurately
determine the thermal performance of the system. Intel has established guidelines for
measuring chipset component case temperatures.

3.1

Case Temperature Measurements
To ensure functionality and reliability, the chipset component is specified for proper
operation when TC is maintained at or below the maximum temperature listed in
Table 2. The surface temperature at the geometric center of the mold encapsulant
corresponds to TC. Measuring TC requires special care to ensure an accurate
temperature measurement.
Temperature differences between the temperature of a surface and the surrounding
local ambient air can introduce error in the measurements. The measurement errors
could be due to a poor thermal contact between the thermocouple junction and the
surface of the package, heat loss by radiation and/or convection, and/or conduction
through thermocouple leads. To minimize these measurement errors, the approach
described below titled 0° Angle Thermocouple Attach Methodology is recommended.

3.2

0° Angle Thermocouple Attach Methodology
1.

Mill a 3.3 mm [0.13 in] diameter hole centered on bottom of the heatsink base.
The milled hole should be approximately 1.5 mm [0.06 in] deep.

2.

Mill a 1.3 mm [0.05 in] wide slot, 0.5 mm [0.02 in] deep, from the centered hole
to one edge of the heatsink. The slot should be in the direction parallel to the
heatsink fins (see Figure 2).

3.

Attach thermal interface material (TIM) to the bottom of the heatsink base.

4.

Cut out portions of the TIM to make room for the thermocouple wire and bead.
The cutouts should match the slot and hole milled into the heatsink base.

5.

Attach a 36 gauge or smaller calibrated K-type thermocouple bead or junction to
the center of the top surface of the case using high thermal conductivity cement.
During this step, make sure no contact is present between the thermocouple
cement and the heatsink base because any contact will affect the thermocouple
reading. It is critical that the thermocouple bead makes contact with the case (see
Figure 1).

6.

Attach heatsink assembly to the ICH, and route thermocouple wires out through
the milled slot.

3.3

Ambient Temperature and Airflow Measurement
Figure 3 describes the recommended location for air temperature measurements
measured relative to the component. For a more accurate measurement of the
average approach air temperature, Intel recommends averaging temperatures
recorded from two thermocouples spaced about 25 mm [1.0 in] apart. Locations for
both a single thermocouple and a pair of thermocouples are presented.
Airflow velocity should be measured using industry standard air velocity sensors.
Typical airflow sensor technology may include hot wire anemometers.
Figure 4 provides guidance for airflow velocity measurement locations. These
locations are for a typical JEDEC test setup and may not be compatible with all chassis

layouts due to the proximity of the processor to the ICH, PCI and PCI Express* add-in
cards. The user may have to adjust the locations for a specific chassis. Be aware that
sensors may need to be aligned perpendicular to the airflow velocity vector or an
inaccurate measurement may result. Measurements should be taken with the chassis
fully sealed in its operational configuration to achieve a representative airflow profile
within the chassis.

ATX Reference Thermal
Solution
The ICH9 reference solution for an ATX platform assumes a component local operating
environment as described in Section 4.2.
Using the TPD configuration (Config #3) given in Table 2, the ICH9 component
requires an attached heatsink to meet thermal specifications. The local-ambient
conditions are based on a 35 °C external-ambient temperature at sea level, where
external-ambient refers to the environment external to the system. Refer to
Appendix A for enabled suppliers for the reference thermal solution and Appendix B
for reference thermal solution mechanical drawings.
Note: The reference heatsink for the ICH9 is the same reference heatsink originally
developed Intel® ICH6 which was also used for the Intel® ICH7 and Intel® ICH8.
Refer to Figure 7 for reference ATX/μATX motherboard keep-out information. Heatsink
can be tape-attached, or attached with a Z-clip. The motherboard keep-out allows for
a Z-clip heatsink attach.
Note: Intel has not completed nor plans to perform thermal or mechanical validation with a
tape-attached heatsink solution.

4.1

Environmental Reliability Requirements
If an attached heatsink is implemented the reliability requirements in Table 3 are
recommended. The mechanical loading of the component may vary depending on the
heatsink, and attach method used. The user should define validation tests based on
the anticipated use conditions and resulting reliability requirements.

ATX boundary conditions
Intel’s reference boundary conditions for ICH9 in an ATX system are 60°C inlet
ambient temperature and 0.25m/s [50 lfm] of airflow. See Figure 5 for more details
on the ATX boundary conditions.
In the ATX boundary conditions listed above, the ICH9 will not require a heatsink
when power dissipation is at or below 2.7 W. This value is referred to as the Package
Thermal Capability, or PTC. Note that the power level at which a heatsink is required
will also change depending on system local operating ambient conditions and system
configuration.

Balanced Technology Extended
(BTX) Thermal Solution
Guidance
In BTX systems the Thermal Module Assembly (TMA) is the primary fan in the system.
A set of three system level boundary conditions have been established to determine
ICH thermal solution requirement.
• High ambient / TDP for the components (Case 1). This covers the maximum TMA
fan speed condition.
• Low external ambient / TDP for the components (Case 2). The TMA fan speed is
limited by the thermistor in the fan hub.
• Low external ambient / Low power for the components (Case 3). This covers the
system idle acoustic condition
In addition to the 3 cases listed above the analysis will review two chassis
configurations to determine the worst case
• Small Form Factor Entertainment PC (EPC) with the Type II 65 W TMA developed
for the Intel® Core™2 Duo Processors. See Intel® Core™2 Duo Desktop Processor
Thermal Mechanical Design Guidelines (TMDG) for details on the reference thermal
design.
• BTX Tower System with a Type I TMA optimized for 65 W processor power.
Current design analysis indicates the Small Form Factor Entertainment PC (EPC) is the
limiting thermal condition for Case 2 and 3 (see Table 4).

The customer should analyze their system design to verify the boundary conditions
prior to design.
For example, the local inlet ambient air for the ICH9 component in a BTX system is
projected to be approximately 55 °C to 60 °C.
The analysis of the ICH cooling should account for the airflow above and below the
motherboard. Without a heatsink the ICH package will dissipate a significant portion of
the heat into the motherboard.
