== Newport Thermal Ratings ==

Gateworks pre-installs a heatsink on the CPU for all Newport boards. This heatsink provides basic cooling for the board during development but customers need to design their own thermal solution based on their particular enclosure, environment and operating conditions. 

The Cavium CN80xx Octeon TX CPU is rated at:

* 800MHz Dual Core (CN8020 - BGA676)
 * Max: 100C Tj (Junction Temp), 95C Tc (Case Temp)
 * Min: -40C Tj (Junction Temp), -40C Tc (Case Temp)

* 1.5GHz Quad Core (CN8030 - BGA676)
 * Max: 95C Tj (Junction Temp), 90C Tc (Case Temp)
 * Min: -40C Tj (Junction Temp), -40C Tc (Case Temp)

== Newport Power Dissipation ==

The following table provides typical power consumption for the various Newport board models without any attached peripherals. 

||= Board =||= GW6100 =||= GW6200 =||= GW6300 =||= GW6304 =||= GW6400 =||= GW6404 =||
|| Linux Prompt ||  TBD  ||  TBD  ||  6.0W  ||  8.2W  ||  TBD  ||  TBD  ||
|| Linux Stress   ||  TBD  ||  TBD  ||  7.2W  ||  10.3W  ||  TBD  ||  TBD  ||

* GW6300 = Dual Core 800MHz CN8020, 1GB DDR4, 8GB eMMC
* GW6304 = Quad Core 1.5GHz CN8030, 2GB DDR4, 8GB eMMC, GPS, CAN

 == Newport Thermal Image ==

The following image is for the GW6300 board with the stock Gateworks heatsink. 

 * Test Condition: 2 hours, Linux prompt, natural convection
 * Tambient @ 25C, CPU @ 75.9C, Board @ 67.5C.
