Intel® 945G Express ChipsetTechnical Documents

The Intel® Socket Test Technology for the LGA775 socket is a test chip that enables testing for the mechanical integrity and electrical continuity of both socket-to-board solder ball connectivity and socket-to-processor contact connectivity. Once inserted into the board's LGA775 socket, the test chip works with either ICT or MDA that have access to all the socket nets through test fixture probes.

• Intel® I/O Controller Hub 7 (ICH7) Family Specification Update

This document presents the conditions and requirements to properly design a cooling solution for systems that implement the 945G Express Chipset GMCH. Properly designed solutions provide adequate cooling to maintain the 945G Express Chipset GMCH 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 local-ambient thermal resistance.
