considering the material removed from the die.
I can't imagine I removed even 100 microns yet. Maybe 50.
Got confused
Indium should have been between 250-350 microns (0.25-0.35mm)
Well ~200 + silicon feets/ring of IHS.
Its a far too small range to measure unless you invest in mitutoyo measuring gear with a ruby ball (not worth for your task)
I wonder if those acrylic lapping supports still exist for LGA1700 chips. They had fine steps on them.
Interesting.
Well a diamond-crystal cant expand for sure.
Just to understand fully, this is:
~ a single crystaline synthetic grown crystal, like they use for LEDs
~ a copper ? sheet just with a diamond coating deposited on it
~ some other base material that you inspected to have good Z-Axis Wm/K rating, and hopefully low thermal transfer resistance.
Which is far more than it needs.
Which option shall i use in OCTool to link you the VF curve?
I'm sorry, but i didnt write the tool. I dont remember its dropdown position.
By the time you waited for the answer - you could look up how to use it and find the pages
There is no tutorial for it written out.
The curve parts probably sit near the Intel dropdown menu.
Take a look and you will find them. Explore the tool
The "tutorial" of it may lie back ~150 to now ~180 pages back
or if you track mine, zebra's , tibcsi's posts you will also find pictures.
I don't know
Repeat it like couple posts ago how to use it.
Play with it, its straight forward & explore this thread.
You may find answers for other duplicate questions you have~
so took my 8 bar compressor and airgun and cleaned every socket with air pressure. And it booted.
But now I have stability issues again, so started to troubleshoot. Seriously, it really annoys me now, but it's my fault, pushing too hard.
The Blocks, i dont know
The pushing hard in perfection or lowering voltages, or buying stuff you dont need
~ although later part who knows might rule out some things for you
Non of those would be a waste.
Making an accident, oh well
stuff happens.
It was already polished when I got it. Maybe too thin?
Eh, at worst not flat but tilted. Things you can measure, as waterblocks/aircoolers generally dont tilt easily.
But besides that, i dont think so.
Too thin would crack or make the lithography visible. Hope i used the right word
Basically would clearly show the inner life, haha.
There is space above it, but too low and things crack too easy.
I have some 1000 grit sandpaper here, I wonder should I check the die with a liner and try to polish it. What do you think? Maybe that would help with the MC SP fluctuation as you suggested before.
1000 grit is too little for crystal polishing. You'll just scratch it deeply
1000-1200, even 1600 is for metal polishing. Copper for example or nickel.
2000 may be for steel bars or other material you want shiny , like kettles. EDIT: (not all kettles are soft brass)
2000 should be the bare minimum for the crystal.
// XOCer like bisobiso for GPUs for example use flat knife polishing stones for this type of work. Else a Marble/Glas surface and high grit plus water droplets is the way to go (of course leveling required)
Sure you can start with 1000, but why even scratch it more than needed
Would only use that if i didnt know how to remove indium better.
I can believe MC SP calculations (changes) may happen by a colder state (0°C vs 20°C roomtemp)
I can not believe it has any sort of duration (the testing) for thermals to matter, soo contact thermal transfer wouldnt be such a big issue
Only uneven pressure would be. But too much pressure on socket also is not too forgiving in the long term. Those are springs after all.
Yet also, thats a far too low chance, given all are factored in when manufacturing as usage and wear tollerances.
