The board designer can choose between several types of heat sinks to place on the 750GX. There are
several commercially-available heat sinks for the 750GX provided by the vendors listed in
Table 5-8, 750GXFigure 5-7. Package Exploded Cross-Sectional View with Several Heat-Sink Options

1. The maximum instantaneous compressive force distributed across the module surface, and perpendicular to the surface of the
board on which it is mounted.
2. The maximum instantaneous tensile force exerted across the module surface, and perpendicular to the surface of the board on
which it is mounted.
3. The maximum instantaneous compressive force distributed across the die surface, and perpendicular to the surface of the board
on which it is mounted.
4. The maximum combined mass of the module, attached heat sink or spreader, and adhesive material used to secure or support the
heat sink or spreader to the module’s ceramic surface.
