Thermal Test Data
Every test behind Thermal Characterization of Cargt SOMs, one row per test, including repeats,
4-hour soaks and the burn-in. The same data is available as a spreadsheet:
all test results (CSV).
How the tests ran
Each test first lets the SOM settle at idle, then runs one load at fixed settings (CPU governor and frequency cap, GPU frequency cap).
A test ends when the die temperature is steady: the mean of the last minute is within 0.3 °C of the mean five minutes earlier (0.15 °C for the enclosure, application and NPU tests, because enclosure air warms slowly). A test runs at least 20 minutes (40 minutes in an enclosure). Soaks run 4 hours and the burn-in 9 hours regardless.
Temperatures are means over the last five minutes of the load. The die temperature is the higher of the SoC’s die sensors.
ΔT is the die temperature minus the room air. Max ambient is the SOM’s design limit (10 °C below its throttle point) minus ΔT. A test that throttled has no max ambient.
CPU MHz is the mean CPU frequency over the last five minutes; CPU / GPU busy are the mean CPU and GPU load over the whole load period.
Performance is the throughput of the load itself: stress-ng operations per second (CPU and memory), glmark2 frames per second (GPU), the UI and video frame rates, and NPU inferences per second.
