| Abstract | Rapid advances in the semiconductor process technology have led to miniaturization of transistor features and advent of multi-core architecture. At the silicon-level while bus speeds, features and functionalities are increasing, at the system-level, there is a steady and incessant trend of volume reduction, compact component placement on the board and noise reduction. Thermal margining tools (TTs) based on a Peltier type thermo-electric-cooler (TEC) replace the cooling solution of the device under test (DUT). The thermal margining head is controlled by the thermal controller to provide a temperature set-point based on the DUT's case temperature. These TTs provide temperature margining capability of varying the case temperature from 5°C to 100°C at silicon thermal design power (TDP) are used for process, voltage, temperature, frequency (PVTF) testing, debug, acceleration of fault detection by Intel's post-silicon validation customers across servers, desktops, mobile and graphics segments. This paper presents the thermo-mechanical design challenges of thermal margining tools. First, we present the details of the thermal margining head design for CPU, chipset and ASIC including the retention design for socketed/soldered down silicon as necessary. Second, we demonstrate how introduction of CFD modeling and retention design methodology has helped with the design optimization of the thermal head. This detailed methodology enabled designing and delivering thermal tools with predictability of the temperature margining range and improved quality of products delivered to validation customers while achieving significant cost saving of the tools. Third, we present the field issues, thermal performance degradation and failure modes of these thermal tools. Finally, we present the challenges ahead of us and the advancements we need from the rest of the industry specifically in TEC technology in designing small form factor thermal margining tools to address the shrinking KOV of the Silicon component placements on the board across the market segments to enable increasing bus speeds, features, functionalities and TDP/power density. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
