Intel® NUC 11 Compute Element Product Specification 2.10 Thermal The fundamental design of the Intel® NUC 11 Compute Element relies on the carrier board enclosure for proper cooling. Both internal components and external skin temperatures are critical parameters in proper cooling and should be considered in any design. For best cooling performance, direct contact with a thermal management device to the bottom of the Compute Element such as a heatsink or enclosure surface is recommended.
Intel® NUC 11 Compute Element Product Specification 2.11 Environmental Table 11 lists the environmental specifications for the Intel® NUC 11 Compute Element. Table 11. Environmental Specifications Parameter Specification Temperature Non-Operating -40 C to +60 C Operating Minimum of 0 C. Maximum local ambient operating temperature limitations are a function of the carrier board and carrier board enclosure design and as such a specific number cannot be provided.
Intel® NUC 11 Compute Element Product Specification 3 Characterized Errata This section of the document communicates product Errata for the Intel® NUC 11 Compute Element. Errata are design defects or deviations from current published specifications for a given product. Published errata may or may not be corrected. Hardware and software designed to be used with any given processor stepping must assume that all errata documented for that process stepping are present on all devices.
