the intel xeon d-1500 family of processors has expanded from eight xeon cores to up to 16 on one soc (system-on-chip) package and on the four-, eight- and 12-core packages also offers a native temperature control process that is designed to keep the processors operating between 40-85°c.

the system works with thermal monitoring technology that alerts the system to a potential thermal failure through a combination of a digital thermal sensor (dts) that keeps track of core temperatures and system processes that will reduce power consumption across the package to maintain working temperatures.
according to a report on electronicsnews.com, “these thermal stress mitigating features help extend the life of deployed single-board computers by reducing the likelihood of overheating and associated component fatigue.”
in addition, extreme engineering solutions (x-es) has built in special features specific to the needs of the aerospace and military industries. the standard processors were “ruggedized” with class iii pcb assemblies, conformal coating and a hybrid heat frame design.
the goal for x-es is to incorporate the new processors into embedded computing systems.
