PICOe-9452 Half-size CPU CardPage 362.9.2 Operating Temperature and Temperature ControlThe maximum and minimum operating temperatures for the PICOe-9452 are listed below. Minimum Operating Temperature: 0ºC (32°F) Maximum Operating Temperature: 60°C (140°F)A cooling fan and heat sink must be installed on the CPU. Thermal paste must besmeared on the lower side of the heat sink before it is mounted on the CPU. Heat sinksare also mounted on the northbridge and southbridge chipsets to ensure the operatingtemperature of these chips remain low.2.9.3 Power ConsumptionTable 2-4 shows the power consumption parameters for the PICOe-9452 running with a2.0GHz Intel® Core™2 Duo T2500 processor with a 667MHz FSB and 512MB of 667MHzDDR2 memory.Voltage Current3.3V 0.77A5.0V 3.0A12.0V 0.17ATable 2-4: Power Consumption2.10 Expansion Options2.10.1 Expansion Options OverviewA number of compatible IEI Technology Corp.
