1.1 Terminology
Term Definition
#
A “#” symbol after a signal name refers to an active low signal, indicating a
signal is in the active state when driven to a low level. For example, when
RESET# is low, a reset has been requested. Conversely, when NMI is high,
a nonmaskable interrupt has occurred. In the case of signals whe r e the
name does not imply an active state but describes part of a binary
sequence (such as address or data), the “#” symbol implies th at the s ignal
is inverted. For example, D[3:0] = “HLHL” refers to a hex ‘A, and D[3:0]#
= “LHLH” also refers to a hex “A” (H= High logic level, L= Low logic level).
XXXX means that the specification or value is yet to be determined.
Front Side Bus
(FSB) Refers to the interface between the processor and system core logic (also
known as the chipset components).
AGTL+ Advanced Gunning Transceiver Logic. Used to refer to Assisted GTL+
signaling technology on some Intel processors.
Storage
Conditions
Refers to a non-operational state. The processor may be installed in a
platform, in a tray, or loose. Processors may be sealed in packaging or
exposed to free air. Under these conditions, processor landings should not
be connected to any supply voltages, have any I/Os biased or receive any
clocks. Upon exposure to “free air” (i.e., unsealed packagin g or a device
removed from packaging material) the processor must be handled in
accordance with moisture sensitivity labeling (MSL) as indicated on the
packaging material.

Low Power Features
2 Low Power Features
2.1 Clock Control and Low Power States
The processor supports low power states both at the individual core level and the
package level for optimal power management.
A core may independently enter the C1/AutoHALT, C1/MWAIT, C2, C3, and C4 low
power states. When both cores coincide in a common core low power state, the centr al
power management logic ensures that the entire processor enters the respective
package low power state by initiating a P_LVLx (P_LV L2, P_LVL3, P_LVL4, or P_LVL5)
I/O read to the chipset.
The processor implements two software interfaces for requesting low power states:
MWAIT instruction extensions with sub-state hints or P_LVLx reads to the ACPI P_BLK
register block mapped in the processors I/O address space. The P_LVLx I/O reads are
converted to equivalent MWAIT C-state requests inside the processor and do not
directly result in I/O reads on the processor FSB. The P_L VLx I/O monitor address does
not need to be set up before using the P_LVLx I/O read interface. The sub-state hints
used for each P_LVLx read can be configured through the Model Specific Register
(MSR).
If a core encounters a chipset break event while STPCLK# is asserted, then it asserts
the PBE# output signal. Assertion of PBE# when STPCLK# is asserted indicates to
system logic that individual cores should return to the C0 state and the processor
should return to the Normal state.
Figure 1 shows the core low power states and Figure 2 shows the package low power
states. Table 1 maps the core low power states to the package low power states.

C1/AutoHALT is a low power state entered when a core executes the HALT instruction.
The processor transitions to the C0 state upon occurren c e of SMI#, INIT#, LINT[1:0]
(NMI, INTR), or FSB interrupt messages. RESET# causes the processor to immediately
initialize itself.

Low Power Features
14 Datasheet
A System Management Interrupt (SMI) handler returns execution to either Normal
state or the AutoHALT Powerdown state. See the Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures
Software Developer’s Manual, Volume 3A/3B: System Programmer's Guide for more
information.
The system can generate a STPCLK# while the processor is in the AutoHALT
Powerdown state. When the system deasserts the STPCLK# interrupt, the processor
returns execution to the HALT state.
While in AutoHALT Powerdown state, the dual core processor processes bus snoops and
snoops from the other core. The processor enters a snoopable sub-state (not shown in
Figure 1) to process the snoop and then return to the AutoHALT Powerdown state.
2.1.1.3 Core C1/MWAIT Powerd own State
C1/MWAIT is a low power state entered when the processor core executes the
MWAIT(C1) instruction. Processor behavior in the MWAIT state is identical to the
AutoHALT state except that Monitor events can cause the processor core to return to
the C0 state. See the Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer’s Manual,
Volume 2A: Instruction Set Reference, A-M and Volume 2B: Instruction Set Reference,
N-Z, for more information.
2.1.1.4 Core C2 State
Individual cores of the dual core processor can enter the C2 state by initiating a P_L VL2
I/O read to the P_BLK or an MWAIT(C2) instruction, but the processor does not issue a
Stop-Grant Acknowledge special bus cycle unless the STPCLK# pin is also asserted.
While in the C2 state, the dual core processor processes bus snoops and snoops from
the other core. The processor enters a snoopable sub-state (not shown in Figure 1) to
process the snoop and then return to the C2 state.
2.1.1.5 Core C3 State
Individual cores of the dual core processor can enter the C3 state by initiating a P_L VL3
I/O read to the P_BLK or an MWAIT(C3) instruction. Before entering C3, the processor
core flushes the contents of its L1 caches into the processor’s L2 cache. Except for the
caches, the processor core maintains all its architectural state in the C3 state. The
monitor remains armed if it is configured. All of the clocks in the processor core are
stopped in the C3 state.
Because the core’s caches are flushed the processor keeps the core in the C3 state
when the processor detects a snoop on the FSB or when the other core of the dual core
processor accesses cacheable memory. The processor core transitions to the C0 state
upon occurrence of a Monitor event, SMI#, INIT#, LINT[1:0] (NMI, INTR), or FSB
interrupt message. RESET# causes the processor to immediately initialize itself.
2.1.1.6 Core C4 State
Individual cores of the dual core processor can enter the C4 state by initiating a P_L VL4
I/O read to the P_BLK or an MWAIT(C4) instruction. The processor core beha vior in the
C4 state is nearly identical to the behavior in the C3 state. The only difference is that if
both processor cores are in C4, then the central power management logic requests that
the entire processor enter the Deeper Sleep package low power state (see
Section 2.1.2.6).
To enable the package level Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep state, Dynamic Cache Sizing
and Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep state fields must be configured in the software
programmable MSR. Refer to Section 2.1.2.6 for further details on Intel Enhanced
Deeper Sleep state.
Datasheet 15
Low Power Features
2.1.2 Package Low Power State Descriptions
2.1.2.1 Normal State
This is the normal operating state for the processor. The processor remains in the
Normal state when at least one of its cores is in the C0, C1/AutoHALT, or C1/MWAIT
state.
2.1.2.2 Stop-Grant State
When the STPCLK# pin is asserted by the chipset, each core of the dual core processor
enters the Stop-Grant state within 20-bus clocks after the response phase of the
processor-issued Stop-Grant Acknowledge special bus cycle. Processor cores that are
already in the C2, C3, or C4 state remain in their current low power state. When the
STPCLK# pin is deasserted, each core returns to its previous core low power state.
Since the AGTL+ signal pins receive power from the FSB, these pins should not be
driven (allowing the level to return to VCCP) for minimum power drawn by the
termination resistors in this state. In addition, all other input pins on the FSB should be
driven to the inactive state.
RESET# causes the processor to immediately initialize itself, but the processor stays in
Stop-Grant state. When RESET# is asserted by the system, the STPCLK#, SLP#,
DPSLP#, and DPRSTP# pins must be deasserted prior to RESET# deassertion. When
re-entering the Stop-Grant state from the Sleep state, STPCLK# should be deasserted
after the deassertion of SLP#.
While in Stop-Grant state, the processor services snoops and latch interrupts delivered
on the FSB. The processor latches SMI#, INIT# and LINT[1:0] interrupts and services
only one of each upon return to the Normal state.
The PBE# signal may be driven when the processor is in Stop-Grant state. PBE#
asserts if there is any pending interrupt or Monitor event latched within the processor.
Pending interrup ts that are blocked by the EFLAGS.IF bit being clear causes assertion
of PBE#. Assertion of PBE# indicates to system logic that the entire processor should
return to the Normal state.
A transition to the Stop-Grant Snoop state occurs when the processor detects a snoop
on the FSB (see Section 2.1.2.3). A transition to the Sleep state (see Section 2.1.2.4)
occurs with the assertion of the SLP# signal.
2.1.2.3 Stop-Grant Snoop State
The processor responds to snoop or interrupt transactions on the FSB while in Stop-
Grant state by entering the Stop-Grant Snoop state. The processor stays in this state
until the snoop on the FSB has been serviced (whether by the processor or another
agent on the FSB) or the interrupt has been latched. The processor returns to the Stop-
Grant state once the snoop has been serviced or the interrupt has been latched.
2.1.2.4 Sleep State
The Sleep state is a low power state in which the processor maintains its context,
maintains the phase-locked loop (PLL), and stops all internal clocks. The Sleep state is
entered through assertion of the SLP# signal while in the Stop-Grant state. The SLP#
pin should only be asserted when the processor is in the Stop-Grant state. SLP#
assertions while the processor is not in the Stop-Grant state is out of specification and
may result in unapproved operation.
Low Power Features
16 Datasheet
In the Sleep state, the processor is incapable of responding to snoop transactions or
latching interrupt signals. No transitions or assertions of signals (with the exception of
SLP#, DPSLP# or RESET#) are allowed on the FSB while the processor is in Sleep
state. Snoop events that occur while in Sleep state or during a transition into or out of
Sleep state causes unpredictable behavior. Any transition on an input signal before the
processor has returned to the Stop-Grant state results in unpredictable behavior.
If RESET# is driven active while the processor is in the Sleep state, and held active,
then the processor resets itself, ignoring the transition through Stop-Grant state. If
RESET# is driven active while the processor is in the Sleep state, the SLP# and
STPCLK# signals should be deasserted immediately after RESET# is asserted to ensure
the processor correctly executes the Reset sequence.
While in the Sleep state, the processor is capable of entering an even lower power
state, the Deep Sleep state, by asserting the DPSLP# pin (See Section 2.1.2.5). While
the processor is in the Sleep state, the SLP# pin must be deasserted if another
asynchronous FSB event needs to occur.
2.1.2.5 Deep Sleep State
The Deep Sl eep state is entere d through assertion of the DP SLP# pin while i n the Sleep
state. BCLK may be stopped during the Deep Sleep state for additional platform-level
power savings. BCLK stop/restart timings on appropriate chipset based platforms with
the CK505 clock chip are as follows:
Deep Sleep entry: the system clock chip may stop/tristate BCLK within 2 BCLKs of
DPSLP# assertion. It is permissible to leave BCLK running during Deep Sleep.
Deep Sleep exit: the system clock chip must drive BCLK to differential DC levels
within 2-3 ns of DPSLP# deassertion and start toggling BCLK within 10 BCLK
periods.
To re-enter the Sleep state, the DP SLP# pin must be deasserted. BCLK can be re-
started after DPSLP# deassertion as described above. A period of 15 microseconds (to
allow for PLL stabilization) must occur before the processor can be considered to be in
the Sleep state. Once in the Sleep state, the SLP # pin must be deasserted to re-enter
the Stop-Grant state.
While in Deep Sleep state, the processor is incapable of responding to snoop
transactions or latching interrupt signals. No transitions of signals are allowed on the
FSB while the processor is in Deep Sleep state. When the processor is in Deep Sleep
state, it does not respond to interrupts or snoop transactions. Any transition on an
input signal before the processor has returned to Stop-Grant state results in
unpredictable behavior.
2.1.2.6 Deeper Sleep State
The Deeper Sleep state is similar to the Deep Sleep state but further reduces core
voltage levels. One of the potential lower core voltage levels is achieved by entering the
base Deeper Sleep state. The De eper Sleep state is entered through assertion of the
DPRSTP# pin while in the Deep Sleep state. The other lower core voltage level, the
lowest possible in the processor, is achieved by entering the Intel Enhanced Deeper
Sleep state which is a sub-state of Deeper Sleep state. Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep
state is entered through assertion of the DPRSTP# pin while in the Deep Sleep only
when the L2 cache has been completely shut down. Refer to Section 2.1.2.6.1 and
Section 2.1.2.6.2 for further details on reducing the L2 cache and entering Intel
Enhanced Deeper Sleep state.
In response to entering Deeper Sleep, the processor drives the VID code corresponding
to the Deeper Sleep core voltage on the VID[6:0] pins.
Datasheet 17
Low Power Features
Exit from Deeper Sleep or Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep state is initiated by DPRSTP#
deassertion when either core requests a core st ate other than C4 or either core
requests a processor performance state other than the lowest operating point.
2.1.2.6.1 Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep State
Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep state is a sub-state of Deeper Sleep that extends power-
saving capabilities by allowing the processor to further reduce core voltage once the L2
cache has been reduced to zero ways and completely shut down. The following events
occur when the processor enters Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep state:
The last core entering C4 causes the package to issue a P_LVL4 IO Read.
Every concurrent package C4 entry reduces the L2 Cache a certain number of
cache ways, after which another P_LVL4 IO Read is issued to the chipset. By
default, half the cache is flushed per concurrent C4 entry.
Once the cache is flushed, P_LVL4 IO Reads continue to be issued.
The processor drives the VID code corresponding to the Intel Enhanced Deeper
Sleep state core voltage on the VID[6:0] pins.
At this point, snoops to the L2 are still serviced, which reduces the amount of time the
processor can reside at the Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep state core voltage.
To improve the Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep state residency, the (G)MCH features
P_LVL5 IO R ead support. When enabled, the CPU issues a P_LV L5 IO read, once the L2
cache is flushed. The P_LVL5 IO read triggers a special chipset sequence to notify the
chipset to redirect all FSB traffic, except APIC messages, to memory instead of L2
cache. Therefore, the processor remains at the Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep state core
voltage for a longer period of time.
2.1.2.6.2 Dynamic Cache Sizing
Dynamic Cache Sizing allows the processor to flush and disable a programmable
number of L2 cache ways upon each Deeper Sleep entry under the following
conditions:
The second core is already in C4 and the Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep state is
enabled (as specified in Section 2.1.1.6).
The C0 timer, which tracks continuous residency in the Normal package state, has
not expired. This timer is cleared during the first entry into Deeper Sleep to allow
consecutive Deeper Sleep entries to shrink the L2 cache as needed.
The FSB speed to processor core speed ratio is below the predefined L2 shrink
threshold.
If the FSB speed to processor core speed ratio is above the predefined L2 shrink
threshold, then L2 cache expansion is requested. If the ratio is zero, then the ratio is
not taken into account for Dynamic Cache Sizing decisions.
Upon STPCLK# deassertion, the first core exiting Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep state
expands the L2 cache to two ways and invalidate previously disabled cache ways. If the
L2 cache reduction conditions stated above still exist when the last core returns to C4
and the package enters Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep state, then the L2 is shrunk to
zero again. If a core requests a processor performance state resulting in a higher ratio
than the predefined L2 shrink threshold, the C0 timer expires, or the second core (not
the one currently entering the interrupt routine) requests the C1, C2, or C3 states,
then all of L2 expands upon the next interrupt event.
L2 cache shrink prevention may be enabled as needed on occasion through an
MWAIT(C4) sub-state field. If shrink prevention is enabled the processor does not enter
Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep state because the L2 cache remains valid and in full size.

2.2 Enhanced Intel SpeedStep® Technology
The processor features Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology. Following are the key
features of Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology:
Multiple voltage and frequency operating points provide optimal performance at the
lowest power.
Voltage and frequency selection is software-controlled by writing to processor
MSRs:
If the target frequency is higher than the current frequency, Vcc is ramped up
in steps by placing new values on the VID pins, and the PLL then locks to the
new frequency.
If the target frequency is lower than the cur rent frequency, the PLL locks to the
new frequency, and the VCC is changed through the VID pin mechanism.
Software transitions are accepted at any time. If a previous transition is in
progress the new transition is deferred until the previous transition completes.
The processor controls voltage ramp rates internally to ensure glitch-free
transitions.
Low transition latency and large number of transitions possible per second:
Processor core (including L2 cache) is unavailable for up to 10 ms during the
frequency transition.
The bus protocol (BNR# mechanism) is used to block snooping.
Improved Intel® Thermal Monitor mode:
When the on-die thermal sensor indicates that the die temperature is too high,
the processor can automatically perform a transition to a lower frequency and
voltage specified in a software-programmable MSR.
The processor waits for a fixed time period. If the die temperature is down to
acceptable levels, an up-transition to the previous frequency and voltage poin t
occurs.
An interrupt is generated for the up and down Intel Thermal Monitor tr ansitions
enabling better system-level thermal management.
Enhanced thermal management features:
Digital Thermal Sensor and Out of Specification detection
Intel Thermal Monitor 1 in addition to Intel Thermal Monitor 2 in case of
unsuccessful Intel Thermal Monitor 2 transition.
Dual core thermal management synchronization.
Each core in the dual processor implements an independent MSR for controlling
Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology, but both cores must operate at the same
frequency and voltage. The processor has performance state coordination logic to
resolve frequency and voltage requests from the two cores into a single frequency and
voltage request for the package as a whole. If both cores request the same frequency
and voltage, then the processor transitions to the requested common frequency and
voltage. If the two cores have different frequency and voltage requests, then the
processor takes the highest of the two frequencies and voltages as the resolved
request, and transition to that frequency and voltage.
The processor also supports Dynamic FSB Frequency Switching and Intel® Dynamic
Acceleration Technology mode on select SKUS. The operating system can take
advantage of these features and requ est a lower operating point called SuperLFM (due
to Dynamic FSB Frequency Switching) and a higher operating point Intel Dynamic
Acceleration Te chnology mode.
Datasheet 19
Low Power Features
2.2.1 Dynamic FSB Frequency Switching
Dynamic FSB frequency switching effectively reduces the internal bus clock frequency
in half to further decrease the minimum processor operating frequency from the
Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology performance states and achieve the Super Low
Frequency Mode (SuperLFM). This feature is supported at FSB frequencies of 800-MHz
and does not entail a ch ange in the external bus signal (BCLK) frequency. Instead, both
the processor and (G)MCH internally lower their BCLK reference frequency to 50% of
the externally visible frequency. Both the processor and (G)MCH maintain a virtual
BCLK signal (“VBCLK”) that is aligned to the external BCLK but at half the frequency.
After a downward shift, it would appear externally as if the bus is running with a
100-MHz base clock in all aspects, except that the actual external BCLK remains at
200 MHz. The transition into SuperLFM, a “down-shift”, is done following a handshake
between the processor and (G)MCH. A similar handshake is used to indicate an “up-
shift”, a change back to normal operating mode.
2.2.2 Intel® Dynamic Acceleration Technology
The processor supports Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology mode on select
platforms. The Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology mode feature allows one core of
the processor to tempor arily operate at a high er frequency point when the other core is
inactive and the operating system requests increased performance. This higher
frequency is called the opportunistic frequency and the maximum rated operating
frequency is the guaranteed frequency.
Note: Intel Core 2 Extreme processors do not support Intel Dynamic Acceleration mode.
Intel Dynamic Acceleration Te chnology mode enabling requires:
Exposure, via BIOS, of the opportunistic frequency as the highest ACPI P state.
Enhanced Multi-Threaded Thermal Management (EMTTM).
Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology mode and EMTTM MSR configuration via
BIOS.
When in Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology mode, it is possible for both cores to be
active under certain internal conditions. In such a scenario the processor may draw a
Instantaneous current (ICC_CORE_INST) for a short duration of tINST; however, the
average ICC current is lesser than or equal to ICCDES current specification. Please refer
to the Processor DC Specifications section for more details.
2.3 Extended Low Power States
Extended low power states (CxE) optimize for power by forcibly reducing the
performance state of the processor when it enters a package low power state. Instead
of directly transitioning into the package low power state, the extended package low
power state first reduces the performance state of the processor by performing an
Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology transition down to the lowest operating point.
Upon receiving a break event from the package low power state, control returns to the
software while an Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology transition up to the initial
operating poin t occurs. The advantage of this feature is that it significantly reduces
leakage while in low power states.
Note: Long-term reliability cannot be assured unless all the Extended Low Power states are
enabled.
Low Power Features
20 Datasheet
The processor implements two software interfaces for requesting extended package
low power states: MWAIT instruction extensions with sub-state hints and via BIOS by
configuring MSR bits to automatically promote package low power states to extended
package low power states.
Extended Stop-Grant and Extended Deeper Sleep must be enabled via the
BIOS for the processor to remain within specification. Any attempt to operate
the processor outside these operating limits may result in permanent damage to the
processor. As processor technology changes, enabling the extended low power states
becomes increasingly crucial when building computer systems. Maintaining the proper
BIOS configuration is key to reliable, long-term system operation. Not complying with
this guideline may affect the long-term reliability of the processor.
Enhance d I ntel SpeedStep Technology transitions are multistep processes that require
clocked control. These transitions cannot occur when the processor is in the Sleep or
Deep Sleep package low power states since processor clocks are not active in these
states. Extended Deeper Sleep state configuration lowers core voltage to the Deeper
Sleep level while in Deeper Sleep and, upon exit, automatically transitions to the lowest
operating voltage and frequency to reduce snoop service latency. The transition to the
lowest operating point or back to the original software requested point may not be
instantaneous. Furthermore, upon very frequent transitions between active and idle
states, the transitions may lag behind the idle state entry resulting in the processor
either executing for a longer time at the lowest operating point or running idle at a high
operating point. Observations and analyses show this behavior should not significantly
impact total power savings or performance score while providing power benefits in
most other cases.
2.4 FSB Low Power Enhancements
The processor incorporates FSB low power enhancements:
•Dynamic FSB Power Down
BPRI# control for address and control input buffers
Dynamic Bus Parking
Dynamic On Die Termination disabling
•Low V
CCP (I/O termination voltage)
The processor incorporates the DPWR# signal that controls the data bus input buffers
on the processor. The DPWR# signal disables the buffers when not used and activates
them only when data bus activity occurs, resulting in significant power savings with no
performance impact. BPRI# control also allows the processor address and control input
buffers to be turned off when the BPRI# signal is inactive. Dynamic Bus P arking allows
a reciprocal power reduction in chipset address and control input buffers when the
processor deasserts its BR0# pin. The On Die Termination on the processor FSB buffers
is disabled when the signals are driven low, resulting in additional power savings. The
low I/O termination voltage is on a dedicated voltage plane, independent of the core
voltage, enabling low I/O switching power at all times.
2.5 VID-x
The processor implements the VID-x feature when in Intel Dynamic
Acceleration Technology mode. VID-x provides the ability for the processor to
request core voltage level reductions greater than one VID tick. The quantity of VID
ticks to be reduced depends on the specific performance state in which the processor is
running. This improved voltage regulator efficiency during periods of reduced power
Datasheet 21
Low Power Features
consumption allows for leakage current reduction, which results in platform power
savings and extended battery life. There is no platform-level change required to
support this feature as long as the VR vendor supports the VID-x feature.
2.6 Processor Power Status Indicator (PSI-2) Signal
The processor incorporates the PSI# signal that is asserted when the processor is in a
reduced power consumption state. PSI# can be used to improve intermediate and light
load efficiency of the voltage regulator, resulting in platform power savings and
extended battery life. The algorithm that the processor uses for determining when to
assert PSI# is different from the algorithm used in previous mobile processors. PSI-2
functionality improves overall voltage regulator efficiency over a wide power range
based on the C-state and P-state of the two cores. The combined C-state and P-state of
both cores are used to dynamically predict processor power. PSI-2 functionality is
expanded further to support three processor states:
Both cores are in idle state
Only one core is in active state
Both cores are in active state

3.1 Power and Ground Pins
For clean, on-chip power distribution, the processor has a large number of V CC (power)
and VSS (ground) inputs. All power pins must be connected to VCC power planes while
all VSS pins must be connected to system ground planes. Use of multiple power and
ground planes is recommended to reduce I*R drop. The processor VCC pin s must be
supplied the voltage determined by the VID (Voltage ID) pins.
3.2 FSB Clock (BCLK[1:0]) and Processor Clocking
BCLK[1:0] directly controls the FSB interface speed as well as the core frequency of the
processor. As in previous generation processors, the processor core frequency is a
multiple of the BCLK[1:0] frequency. The proce ssor uses a differential clocking
implementation.
3.3 Voltage Identification
The processor uses seven voltage identification pins,VID[6:0], to support automatic
selection of power supply voltages. The VID pins for processor are CMOS outputs
driven by the processor VID circuitry. Table 2 specifies the voltage level corresponding
to the state of VID[6:0]. A 1 refers to a high- voltage level and a 0 refers to low- voltage
level.

3.4 Catastrophic Thermal Protection
The processor supports the THERMTRIP# signal for catastrophic thermal protection. An
external thermal sensor should also be used to protect the processor and the system
against excessive temperatures. Even with the activation of THERMTRIP#, which halts
all processor internal clocks and activity, leakage current can be high enough that the
processor cannot be protected in all conditions without power removal to the processor.
If the external thermal sensor detects a catastrophic processor temperature of 125°C
(maximum), or if the THERMTRIP# signal is asserted, the VCC supply to the processor
must be turned off within 500 ms to prevent permanent silicon damage due to thermal
runaway of the processor. THERMTRIP# functionality is not guaranteed if the
PWRGOOD signal is not asserted.
3.5 Reserved and Unused Pins
All RESERVED (RSVD) pins must remain unconnected. Connection of these pins to VCC,
VSS, or to any other signal (including each other) may result in component malfunction
or incompatibility with future processors. See Section 4.2 for a pin listing of the
processor and the location of all RSVD pins.
For reliable operation, always connect unused inputs or bidirectional signals to an
appropriate signal level. Unused active low AGTL+ inputs may be left as no connects if
AGTL+ termination is provided on the processor silicon. Unused active high inputs
should be connected through a resistor to ground (VSS). Unused outputs can be left
unconnected.
The TEST1 and TEST2 pins must have a stuffing option of separate pull-down resistors
to VSS.
For the purpose of testability, route the TEST3 and TEST5 signals through a ground-
referenced Zo = 55-Ω trace that ends in a via that is near a GND via and is accessible
through an oscilloscope connection.

3.6 FSB Frequency Select Signals (BSEL[2:0])
The BSEL[2:0] signals are used to select the frequency of the processor input clock
(BCLK[1:0]). These signals should be connected to the clock chip and the appropriate
chipset on the platform. The BSEL encoding for BCLK[1:0] is shown in Table 3.
3.7 FSB Signal Groups
The FSB signals have been combined into groups by buffer type in the following
sections. AGTL+ input signals have differential input buffers, which use GTLREF as a
reference level. In this document, the termAGTL+ Input” refers to the AGTL+ input
group as well as the AGTL+ I/O group when receiving. Similarly, “ AGTL+ Output” refers
to the AGTL+ output group as well as the AGTL+ I/O group when driving.
With the implementation of a source synchronous data bus, two sets of timing
parameters need to be specified. One set is for common clock signals, which are
dependent upon the rising edge of BCLK0 (ADS#, HIT#, HITM#, etc.) and the second
set is for the source synchronous signals, which are relative to their respective strobe
lines (data and address) as well as the rising edge of BCLK0. Asychronous signals are
still present (A20M#, IGNNE#, etc.) and can become active at any time during the
clock cycle. Table 4 identifies which signals are common clock, source synchronous,
and asynchronous.

3.8 CMOS Signals
CMOS input signals are shown in Table 4. Legacy output FERR#, IERR# and other non-
AGTL+ signals (THERMTRIP# and PROCHOT#) utilize Open Drain output buffers. These
signals do not have setup or hold time specifications in relation to BCLK[1:0]. However,
all of the CMOS signals are required to be asserted for more than four BCLKs in order
for the processor to recognize them. See Section 3.10 for the DC specifications for the
CMOS signal groups.
3.9 Maximum Ratings
Table 5 specifies absolute maximum and minimum ratings. If the processor stays within
functional operation limits, functionality and long-term reliability can be expected.
Caution: At conditions outside functional operation condition limits, but within absolute
maximum and minimum ratings, neither functionality nor long term reliability can be
expected. At conditions exceeding absolute maximum and minimum ratings, neither
functionality nor long term reliability can be expected.
Caution: Precautions should always be taken to avoid high static voltages or electric fields.
NOTES:
1. For functional operation, all processor electrical, signal quality, mechanical and thermal
specifications must be satisfied.
2. Storage temperature is applicable to storage conditions only. In this scenario, the
processor must not receive a clock, and no lands can be connected to a voltage bias.
Storage within these limits does not affect the long term reliability of the device. For
functional operation, please refer to the processor case temperature specificati o ns.
3. This rating applies to the processor and does not include any tray or packaging.
4. Failure to adhere to this specification can affect the long term reliability of the processor.

3.10 Processor DC Specificatio ns
The processor DC specifications in this section are defined at the processor
core (pads) unless noted otherwise. See Table 4 for the pin signal definitions and
signal pin assignments.
Table 6 through Table 8 list the DC specifications for the processor and are valid only
while meeting specifications for junction temperature, clock frequency, and input
voltages. The Highest Frequency Mode (HFM) and Super Low Frequency Mode
(SuperLFM) refer to the highest and lowest core operating frequencies supported on
the processor. Active mode load line specifications apply in all states except in the Deep
Sleep and Deeper Sleep states. VCC,BOOT is the default voltage driven by the voltage
regulator at power up in order to set the VID values. Unless specified otherwise, all
specifications for the processor are at Tjunction = 100°C. Care should be taken to read
all notes associated with each parameter.

NOTES:
1. Each processor is programmed with a maximum valid voltage identification value (VID), which is set at
manufacturing and cannot be altered. Individual maximum VID values are calibrated during manufacturing
in such a way that two processors at the same frequency may hav e different settin gs within the VID range.
Note that this differs from the VID employed by the processor during a power management event (Intel
Thermal Monitor 2, Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Tech nology, or Extended Halt State).
2. The voltage specifications are assumed to be measured across VCC_SENSE and VSS_SENSE pins at socket with
a 100-MHz bandwidth oscilloscope, 1.5-pF maximum probe capacitance, and 1-mΩ minimum impedance.
The maximum length of ground wire on the probe should be less than 5 mm. Ensure external noise from
the system is not couple d in the scope probe.

levels described herein.
7. Measured at the bulk capacitors on the motherboard.
8. The maximum delta between Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep and LFM on the processor is lesser than or
equal to 350 mV.
9. Based on simu lations and averaged over the duration of any change in current. Specified by design/
characterization at nominal VCC. Not 100% tested.
10. This is a power-up peak current specification, which is applicable when VCCP is high and VCC_CORE is low .

Specifications and Pin
Information
4.1 Package Mechanical Specifications
The processor is available in 4-MB and 2-MB, 478-pin Micro-FCPGA packages as well as
4-MB and 2-MB, 479-ball Micro-FCBGA packages. The package mechanical dimensions,
keep-out zones, processor mass specifications, and package loading specifications are
shown in Figure 6 through Figure 13.
The mechanical package pressure specifications are in a direction normal to the surface
of the processor. This requirement is to protect the processor die from fr acture risk due
to uneven die pressure distribution under tilt, stack-up tolerances and other similar
conditions. These specifications assume that a mechanical attach is designed
specifically to load one type of processor.
Intel also specifies that 15-lbf load limit should not be exceeded on any of Intel’s BGA
packages so as to not impact solder joint reliability after reflow. This load limit ensures
that impact to the package solder joints due to tr ansient bend, shock, or tensile loading
is minimized. The 15-lbf metric should be used in parallel with the 689-kPa (100 psi)
pressure limit as long as neither limits are exceeded.
Moreover, the processor package substrate should not be used as a mechanical
reference or load-bearing surface for the thermal or mechanical solution. Please refer
to the Santa Rosa Platform Mechanical Design Guide for more details.
Caution: The Micro-FCBGA package incorporates land-side capacitors. The land-side capacitors
are electrically conductive so care should be taken to avoid contacting the capacitors
with other electrically conductive materials on the motherboard. Doing so may short
the capacitors and possibly damage the device or render it inactive.
Note: For E-step based processors refer the 4-MB and Fused 2-MB package drawings. For M-
step based processors refer to the 2-MB package drawings.

4.3 Alphabetical Signals Reference
Table 18. Signal Description (Sheet 1 of 7)
Name Type Description
A[35:3]# Input/
Output
A[35:3]# (Address) define a 236-byte physical memory address space. In sub-
phase 1 of the address phase, these pins transmit the address of a transaction. In
sub-phase 2, thes e pi ns transmit transaction t y pe in format ion . T h es e s ign als must
connect the appropriate pins of both agents on the processor FSB. A[35:3]# are
source synchronous signal s and are latched into the receiving buffers by
ADSTB[1:0]#. Address signals are used as straps which are sampled before
RESET# is deasserted.
A20M# Input
If A20M# (Address-20 Mas k) is asser ted, th e processor masks physical address bit
20 (A20#) before looking up a line in any i nternal cache and before driving a read/
write transaction on the bus. Asserting A20M# emulates the 8086 processor's
address wrap-around at the 1-Mbyte boundary. Assertion of A20M# is only
supported in real mode.
A20M# is an asynchronous signal. However, to ensure recognition of this signal
following an Input/Output write instruction, it must be valid along with the TRDY#
assertion of the corresponding Input/Outpu t Write bus transaction.
ADS# Input/
Output
ADS# (Address Strobe) is asserted to in dicate the validity of the transaction
address on the A[35:3]# and REQ[4:0]# pins. All bus agents observe the ADS#
activation to begin parity checking, protocol checking, address decode, internal
snoop, or deferred reply ID match operations associated with the new transaction.
ADSTB[1:0]# Input/
Output
Address strobes are used to latch A[35:3]# and REQ[4:0]# on their rising and
falling edges. Strobes are associated with signals as shown below.
BCLK[1:0] Input
The differential pair BCLK (Bus Clock) determines the FSB frequency. All FSB
agents must receive these signals to drive their outputs and latch their inputs.
All extern al timing parameters are sp ecified with respect to the rising edge of
BCLK0 crossing VCROSS.
BNR# Input/
Output
BNR# (Block Next Request) is used to assert a bus stall by any bus agent who is
unable to accept new bus transactions. During a bus stall, the current bus owner
cannot issue any new transactions.
BPM[2:1]#
BPM[3,0]#
Output
Input/
Output
BPM[3:0]# (Breakpoint Monitor) are breakpoint and performance monitor signals.
They are outputs from the processor which indicate the status of breakpoints and
programmable counters used for monitoring processor performance. BPM[3:0]#
should connect the appropri ate pins of all processor FS B agents.This includes
debug or performance monitoring tools.
BPRI# Input
BPRI# (Bus Priority Request) is used to arbitrate for ownership of the FSB. It mus t
connect the appropriate pins of both FSB agents. Observing BPRI# active (as
asserted by the priority agent) causes the other agent to s top i ssuing new
requests, unless such requests are part of an ongoing locked operation. The
priority agent keeps BPRI# asserted until all of its requests are completed, then
releases the bus by deasserting BPRI#.
BR0# Input/
Output BR0# is used by the processor to request the bus. The arbitrat ion is done between
processor (Symmetric Agent) and (G)MCH (High Priority Agent).

BSEL[2:0] Output
BSEL[2:0] (Bus Select) are used to select the processor input clock frequency.
Table 3 defines the possible combinations of the signals and the frequency
associated with each combination. The required frequency is determined by the
processor, chipset and cl ock synthesizer. All agents must operate at the same
frequency.
COMP[3:0] Analog COMP[3:0] must be terminated on the system board using precision (1%
tolerance) resistors.
D[63:0]# Input/
Output
D[63:0]# (Data) are the data signals. These signals provide a 64-bit data path
between the FSB agents, and must connect the appropriate pins on both agents.
The data driver asserts DRDY# to indicate a valid data transfer.
D[63:0]# are quad-pumped signals and are driven four times in a common clock
period. D[63:0]# are latched off the falling edge of both DSTBP[3:0]# and
DSTBN[3:0]#. Each group of 16 data signals corresponds to a pair of one DSTBP#
and one DSTBN#. The following table shows the grouping of data signals to data
strobes and DINV#.
Furthermore, the DINV# pins determine the polarity of the data signals. Each
group of 16 data signals corresponds to one DINV# signal. When the DINV# signal
is active, the corresponding data group is inverted and therefore sampled active
high.
DBR# Output
DBR# (Data Bus Reset) is used only in processor systems where no debug port is
implemented on the system board. DBR# is used by a debug port interposer so
that an in-target probe can drive system reset. If a debug port is implemented in
the system, DBR# is a no-connect in the system. DBR# is not a processor signal.
DBSY# Input/
Output
DBSY# (Data Bus Busy) is asserted by the agent responsible for driving data on
the FSB to indicate that the data bus is in use. The data bus is released after
DBSY# is deasserted. This signal must connect the appropriate pins on both FSB
agents.
DEFER# Input
DEFER# is asserted by an agent to indicate that a transaction cannot be
guaranteed in-order completion. Assertion of DEFER# is normally the re sponsibility
of the addressed memory or Input/Output agent. This signal must connect the
appropriate pins of both FSB agents.

DINV[3:0]# Input/
Output
DINV[3:0]# (Data Bus Inv ersion) are source synchronous and indicate the polarity
of the D[63:0]# signals. The DINV[3:0]# signals are activated when the data on
the data bus is inverted. The bus agent inverts the data bus signals if more than
half the bits, within the covered group, would change level in the next cycle.
DPRSTP# Input
DPRSTP# when asserted on the platform causes the processor to transition from
the Deep Sleep State to the Deeper Sleep state. In order to return to the Deep
Sleep State, DPRSTP# must be deasserted. DPRSTP# is driven by the Intel
82801HBM ICH8M I/O Controller Hub based chipset.
DPSLP# Input DPSLP# when asse rted on the platform causes the processor to tr ansition from the
Sleep State to the Deep Sleep state. In order to return to the Sleep State, DPSLP#
must be deasserted. DPSLP# is driven by the Intel 82801HBM ICH8M chipset.
DPWR# Input/
Output
DPWR# is a control signal used by the chipset to reduce power on the processor
data bus input buffers. The processor drives this pin during dynamic FSB frequency
switching.
DRDY# Input/
Output
DRDY# (Data Ready) is asserted by the data driver on each data transfer,
indicating valid data on the data bus. In a multi-common clock data transfer,
DRDY# may be deasserted to insert idle clocks. This signal must connect the
appropriate pins of both FSB agents.

FERR#/PBE# Output
FERR# (Floating-point Error)/PBE#(Pending Break Event) is a multiplexed signal
and its meaning is qualified with STPCLK#. When STPCLK# is not asserted, FERR#/
PBE# indicates a floating point when the processor detects an unmasked floating-
point error. FERR# is similar to the ERROR# signal on the Intel 387 coprocessor,
and is included for compatibility with systems using MS-DOS*-type floating-point
error reporting. When STPCLK# is asserted, an assertion of FERR#/PBE# indicates
that the processor has a pending break event waiting for service. The assertion of
FERR#/PBE# indicates that the processor should be returned to the Normal state.
When FERR#/PBE# is asserted, indicating a break event, it remains asserted until
STPCLK# is deasserted. Assertion of PREQ# when STPCLK# is active also causes
an FERR# break event.
For additional information on the pending break event functionality, including
identification of support of the feature and enable/disable information, refer to
Volumes 3A and 3B of the Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer’s
Manual and the Inte Processor Identification and CPUID Instruction application
note.
GTLREF Input GTLREF det ermines the si gnal reference level for AGTL+ input pins. GTLREF should
be set at 2/3 VCCP. GTLREF is used by the AGTL+ receiv ers to det ermine if a s ignal
is a logical 0 or logical 1.
HIT#
HITM#
Input/
Output
Input/
Output
HIT# (Snoop Hit) and HITM# (Hit Modified) convey transaction snoop operation
results. Either FSB agent may assert both HIT# and HITM# together to indicate
that it requires a snoop stall, which can be continued by reasserting HIT# and
HITM# together.
IERR# Output
IERR# (Internal Error) is asserted by a processor as the result of an internal error.
Assertion of IER R# is usually acco mpanied by a SHUTDOWN transaction on the
FSB. This tr ansaction may optionally be con verted to an external error signal (e.g.,
NMI) by system core logic. The processor keeps IERR# asserted until the assertion
of RESET#, BINIT#, or INIT#.
IGNNE# Input
IGNNE# (Ignore Numeric Error) is asserted to force the processor to ignore a
numeric error and cont inue to execute noncontrol floating-point instructions. If
IGNNE# is deasserted, the processor generates an exception on a nonc ontrol
floating-point instruction if a previous floating-point instruction caused an error.
IGNNE# has no effect when the NE bit in control register 0 (CR0) is set.
IGNNE# is an asynchronous signal. However, to ensure recognition of this signal
following an Input/Output write instruction, it must be valid along with the TRDY#
assertion of the corresponding Input/Output Write bus transaction.
INIT# Input
INIT# (Initialization), when asserted, resets integer registers inside the processor
without affecting its internal caches or floating-point registers. The processor then
begins execution at the power-on Reset vector configured during power-on
configuration. The processor continues to handle snoop requests during INIT#
assertion. INIT# is an asynchronous signal. However, to ensure recognition of this
signal following an Input/Output Write instruction, it must be valid along with the
TRDY# assertion of the corresponding Input/Output Write bus transaction. INIT#
must connect the appropriate pins of both FSB agents.
If INIT# is sampled active on the active to inactive transition of RESET#, then the
processor executes its Built-in Self-Test (BIST)

Package Mechanical Specifications and Pin Information
LINT[1:0] Input
LINT[1:0] (Local APIC Interrupt) must connect the appropriate pins of all APIC Bus
agents. When the APIC is disabled, the LINT0 signal becomes INTR, a maskable
interrupt request signal, and LINT1 becomes NMI, a nonmaskable interrupt. INTR
and NMI are backward compatible with the signals of those names on the Intel®
Pentium® processor. Both signals are asynchronous.
Both of these signals must be software configured via BIOS programming of the
APIC register s pace to be used ei ther as N MI/INTR o r LINT[1: 0]. Bec ause the APIC
is enabled by default after Reset, operation of these pins as LINT[1:0] is the default
configuration.
LOCK# Input/
Output
LOCK# indicate s to the system th at a transact ion must occur atomically. This signal
must connect the appropriate pins of both FSB agents. For a locked sequence of
transactions, LOCK# is asserted from the beginning of the first transaction to the
end of the last transaction.
When the priority agent asserts BPRI# to arbitrate for ownership of the FSB, it
waits until it observes LOCK# deasserted. This enables symmetric agents to retain
ownership of the FSB throughout the bus locked operation and ensure the
atomicity of lock.
PRDY# Output Probe Ready signal used by debug tools to determine processor debug readiness.
PREQ# Input Probe Request signal used by debug tools to request debug operation of the
processor.
PROCHOT# Input/
Output
As an output, PROCHOT# (Processor Hot) goes active when the processor
temperature monitoring sensor detects that the processor has reached its
maximum safe operating temperature. This indicates that the processor Thermal
Control Circuit (TCC) has been activated, if enabled. As an input, assertion of
PROCHOT# by the system activates the TCC, if enabled. The TCC remains active
until the system deasserts PROCHOT#.
By default PROCHOT# is configured as an output. The processor must be enabled
via the BIOS for PROCHOT# to be configured as bidirectional.
This signal may r equire voltage translation on the motherboard.
PSI# Output Processor Power Status Indicator signal. This signal is asserted when the processor
is in both in the Normal state (HFM to LFM) and in lower power states (Deep Sl eep
and Deeper Sleep).
PWRGOOD Input
PWRGOOD (Po wer Good) is a processor input. The processor requir es this sign al to
be a clean indication that the clocks and power supplies are stable and within their
specificat ions. ‘Clean’ implies that the signal remains low (capable of sinking
leakage current), without glitches, from the ti me that the power supplies are
turned on until they come within specification. The signal must then t ransition
monotonically to a high state. PWRG OOD can be driven inactive at any time, but
clocks and power must again be stable before a subsequent rising edge of
PWRGOOD.
The PWRGOOD signal must be supplied to the processor; it is used to protect
internal circuits against voltage sequencing issues . It should be driven high
throughout boundary scan operation.
REQ[4:0]# Input/
Output
REQ[4:0]# (Request Command) must connect the appropriate pins of both FSB
agents. They are assert ed b y the current bus owner to define the currently active
transaction type. These signals are source synchronous to ADSTB[0]#.

RESET# Input
Asserting the RESET# signal resets the processor to a known state and invalidates
its internal cac hes without writing back any of their contents. For a power-on
Reset, RESET# must stay active for at least two milliseconds after VCC and BCLK
have reached their proper specifications. On observing active RESET#, both FSB
agents deasserts their outputs within two clocks. All processor straps must be valid
within the specified setup time before RESET# is deasserted. There is a 55-Ω
(nominal) on die pull-up resistor on this sign al.
RS[2:0]# Input RS[2:0]# (Response Status) are driven by the response agent (the agent
responsible for completion of the current transaction), and must connect the
appropriate pins of both FSB agents.
RSVD Reserved
/No
Connect
These pins are RE SE RVE D and must be left unconnected on the board. However, it
is recommended that routing channels to these pins on the board be kept open for
possible future use.
SLP# Input
SLP# (Sleep), when asserted in Stop-Grant state, causes the processor to enter
the Sleep state. D uring Sleep state, the proces sor stops providing internal clock
signals to all units, leaving only the Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) still operating.
Processors in this state does not recognize snoops or interrupts. The processor
recognizes only assertion of the RESET# signal, deassertion of SLP#, and removal
of the BCLK input while in Sleep state. If SLP# is deasserted, the processor exits
Sleep state and returns to Stop-Grant state, restarting its internal clock signals to
the bus and processor core units. If DPSLP# is asserted while in the Sleep state,
the processor exits the Sleep state and transition to the Deep Sleep state.
SMI# Input
SMI# (System M anagement Interrupt) is asserted asynchronously by system logic.
On accepting a System Management Interrupt, the processor saves the current
state and enters System Management Mode (SMM). An SMI Acknowledge
transaction is issued and the processor begins program execution from the SMM
handler.
If an SMI# is asserted during the deassertion of RESET#, then the processor
tristates its outputs.
STPCLK# Input
STPCLK# (Stop Clock), when asserted, causes the processor to enter a low power
Stop-Grant state. The processor issues a Stop-Grant Acknowledge transaction, and
stops providing internal clock signals to all processor core units except the FSB and
APIC units. The processor conti nues to snoop bus transactions and service
interrupts while in Stop-Grant state. When STPCLK# is deasserted, the processor
restarts its internal clock to all units and resumes execution. The assertion of
STPCLK# has no effect on the bus clock; STPCLK# is an asynchronous input.
TCK Input TCK (Test Clock) provides the clock input for the processor Test Bus (also known as
the Test Access Port).
TDI Input TDI (Test Dat a In) transfers serial test data int o the processor. TDI provides the

§
THERMTRIP# Output
The processor protects itself from catastrophic overheating by use of an internal
thermal sensor. This sensor is set well above the normal operating temperature to
ensure that there are no false trips. The processo r stops all execution when the
junction temperature exceeds approximately 125°C. This is signalled to the syst em
by the THERMTRIP# (Thermal Trip) pin.
TMS Input TMS (Test Mode Select) is a JTAG specification support signal used by debug tools.
TRDY# Input TRDY# (Target Ready) is asserted by the target to indicate that it is ready to
receive a write or implicit writeb ack data transfer. TRDY# must connect the
appropriate pins of both FSB agents.
TRST# Input TRST# (Test Reset) resets the Test Access Port (TAP) logic. TRST# must be driven
low during power on Reset.
VCC Input Processor core power supply.
VSS Input Processor core ground node.
VCCA Input VCCA provides isolated power for the internal processor core PLL’s.
VCCP Input Processor I/O Power Supply.
VCC_SENSE Output VCC_SENSE together with VSS_SENSE are voltage feedback signals to Int el MVP-6
that control the 2.1-mΩ loadline at the processor die. It should be used to sense
voltage near the silicon with little noise.
VID[6:0] Output
VID[6:0] (V oltage ID ) pins are used to support automatic selection of power supply
voltages (VCC). Unlike some previous generations of processors, these are CMOS
signals that are driven by the processor. The v oltage su pply for these pins must be
valid before the VR can supply Vcc to the processor. Conversely, the VR output
must be disabled until the voltage supply for the VID pins becomes valid. The VID
pins are needed to support the processor voltage specification variations. See
Table 2 for definitions of these pins. The VR must supply the voltage that is
requested by the pins, or disable itself.
VSS_SENSE Output VSS_SENSE together with VCC_SENSE are voltage feedback signals to Int el MVP-6
that control the 2.1-mΩ loadline at the processor die. It should be used to sense
ground near the si licon with little nois e.

5 Thermal Specifications and
Design Considerations
Maintaining the proper thermal environment is key to reliable, long-term system
operation. A complete thermal solution includes both component and system level
thermal management features. The system/processor thermal solution should be
designed so that the processor remains within the minimum and maximum junction
temperature (Tj) specifications at the corresponding thermal design power (TDP) value
listed in Table 19 through Table 20.
Caution: Operating the processor outside these limits may result in permanent damage to the
processor and potentially other components in the system.

Thermal Specifications and Design Considerations
5.1.1 Thermal Diode
The processor incorporates an on-die PNP transistor whose base emitter junction is
used as a thermal diode, with its collector shorted to ground. The therm al diode can be
read by an off-die analog/digital converter (a thermal sensor) located on the
motherboard or a stand-alone measurement kit. The thermal diode may be used to
monitor the die temperature of the processor for thermal management or
instrumentation purposes but is not a reliable indication that the maximum operating
temperature of the processor has been reached. When using the thermal diode, a
temperature offset value must be read from a processor MSR and applied. See
Section 5.1.2 for more details. Please see Section 5.1.3 for thermal diode usage
recommendation when the PROCHOT# signal is not asserted.
The reading of the external thermal sensor (on the motherboard) connected
to the processor thermal diode signals does not reflect the temperature of the
hottest location on the die. This is due to inaccuracies in the external thermal
sensor, on-die temperature gradients between the location of the thermal diode and the
hottest location on the die, and time based variations in the die temperature
measurement. Time-based v ariations can occur when the sampling r ate of the thermal
diode (by the thermal sensor) is slower than the rate at which the TJ temperature can
change.
Offset between the thermal diode-based temp erature reading and the Intel Thermal
Monitor reading may be characterized using the Intel Thermal Monitor’s Automatic
mode activation of the thermal control circuit. This temperature offset must be taken
into account when using the processor thermal diode to implement power management
events. This offset is different than the diode Toffset value programmed into the
processor Model Specific Register (MSR).
Table 23 to Table 26 provide the diode interface and specifications. The diode model
parameters apply to the traditional thermal sensors that use the diode equation to
determine the processor temperature. Transistor model parameters have been added
to support thermal sensors that use the transistor equation method. The Transistor
model may provide more accurate temperature measurements when the diode ideality
factor is closer to the maximum or minimum limits. Contact your external sensor
supplier for recommendations. The thermal diode is separate from the Intel Thermal
Monitor’s thermal sensor and cannot be used to predict the behavior of the Intel
Thermal Monitor.

2. Characterized across a temperature range of 50-100°C.
3. Not 100% tested. Specified by design characterization.
4. The ideality factor, n, represents the deviation from ideal diode behavior as exemplified by
the diode equation:
IFW = IS * (e qVD/nkT –1)
where IS = saturation current, q = electronic charge, VD = voltage across the diode, k =
Boltzmann Constant, and T = absolute temperature (Kelvin).
5. The series resistance, RT, is provided to allow for a more accurate measurement of the
junction temperature. RT, as defined, includes the lands of the processor but does not
include any socket resistance or board trace resistance between the socket and the
external remote diode thermal sensor. RT can be used by remote diode thermal sensors
with automat ic series resistance cancellation to calibrate out this error term. Another
application is that a temperature offset can be manu ally calculated and programmed into
an offset register in the remote diode thermal sensors as exemplified by the equation:
Terror = [RT * (N-1) * IFWmin] / [nk/q * ln N ]
where Terror = sensor temperature error, N = sensor current ratio, k = Boltzmann
Constant, q = electronic charge.

2. Same as IFW in Table 24.
3. Characterized across a temperature range of 50-100°C.
4. Not 100% tested. Specified by design characterization.
5. The ideality factor, nQ, represents the deviation from ideal transistor model behavior as
exemplified by the equation for the collector current:
IC = IS * (e qVBE/nQkT –1)
where IS = saturation current, q = electronic charge, VBE = voltage across the transistor
base emitter junction (s ame node s as VD), k = Boltzmann Constant, and T = absolute
temperature (Kelvin).
6. The series resistance, RT, provided in the Di ode Model Table (Table 24) can be used for
more accurate readings as needed.
When calculating a temperature based on the thermal diode measurements, a number
of parameters must be either measured or assumed. Most devices measure the diode
ideality and assume a series resistance and ideality trim value, although are capable of
also measuring the series resistance. Calculating the temper ature is then accomplished
using the equations listed under Table 24. In most sensing devices, an expected value
for the diode ideality is designed-in to the temperature calculation equation. If the
designer of the temperature sensing device assumes a perfect diode, the ideality value
(also called ntrim) is 1.000. Given that most diodes are not perfect, the designers
usually select an ntrim value that more closely matches the behavior of the diodes in
the processor. If the processor diode ideality deviates from that of the ntrim, each
calculated temperature offsets by a fixed amount. This temperature offset can be
calculated with the equation:
Terror(nf) = Tmeasured * (1 - nactual/ntrim)
where Terror(nf) is the offset in degrees C, Tmeasured is in Kelvin, nactual is the measured
ideality of the diode, and ntrim is the diode ideality assumed by the temperature
sensing device.
5.1.2 Thermal Diode Offset
In order to improve the accuracy of the diode-based temperature measurements, a
temperature offset value (specified as Toffset) is programmed in the processor MSR
which contains thermal diode characterization data. During manufacturing each
processor thermal diode is evaluated for its behavior relative to the theoretical diode.
Using the equation above, the temperature error created by the difference ntrim and the
actual ideality of the particular processor is calculated.

Thermal Specifications and Design Considerations
84 Datasheet
If the ntrim value used to calculate the Toffset differs from the ntrim value used to in a
temperature sensing device, the Terror(nf) may not be accurate. If desired, the Toffset
can be adjusted by calculating nactual and then recalculating the offset using the ntrim as
defined in the temperature sensor manufacturer’s datasheet.
The ntrim used to calculate the Diode Correction Toffset are listed in Table 26.
5.1.3 Intel® Thermal Monitor
The Intel Thermal Monitor helps control the processor temperature by activating the
TCC (Thermal Control Circuit) when the processor silicon reaches its maximum
operating temperature. The temperature at which the Intel Thermal Monitor activates
the TCC is not user configurable. Bus traffic is snooped in the normal manner and
interrupt requests are latched (and serviced during the time that the clocks are on)
while the TCC is active.
With a properly designed and characterized thermal solution, it is anticipated that the
TCC would only be activated for very short periods of time when running the most
power intensive applications. The processor performance impact due to these brief
periods of TCC activation is expected to be minor and hence not detectable. An under-
designed thermal solution that is not able to prev ent excessiv e activation of the T CC in
the anticipated ambient environment may cause a noticeable performance loss and
may affect the long-term reliability of the processor. In addition, a thermal solution that
is significantly under-designed may not be capable of cooling the processor even when
the TCC is active continuously.
The Intel Thermal Monitor controls the processor temperature by modulating (starting
and stopping) the processor core clocks or by initiating an Enhanced Intel SpeedStep
Technology transition when the processor silicon reaches its maximum operating
temperature. The Intel Thermal Monitor uses two modes to activate the TCC: automatic
mode and on-demand mode. If both modes are activated, automatic mode takes
precedence.
There are two automatic modes called Intel Thermal Monitor 1 and Intel Thermal
Monitor 2. These modes are selected by writing values to the MSRs of the processor.
After automatic mode is enabled, the TCC activates only when the internal die
temperature reaches the maximum allowed value for operation.
When Intel Thermal Monitor 1 is enabled and a high temperature situation exists, the
clocks modulates by alternately turning the clocks off and on at a 50% duty cycle.
Cycle times are processor speed dependent and decreases linearly as processor core
frequencies increase. Once the temperature has returned to a non-critical level,
modulation ceases and TCC goes inactive. A small amount of hysteresis has been
included to prevent rapid active/inactive transitions of the TCC when the processor
temperature is near the trip point. The duty cycle is factory configured and cannot be
modified. Also, automatic mode does not require any additional hardware, software
drivers, or interrupt handling routines. Processor performance decreases by the same
amount as the duty cycle when the TCC is active.
When Intel Thermal Monitor 2 is enabled and a high temperature situation exists, the
processor performs an Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology transition to the LFM.
When the processor temperature drops below the critical level, the processor makes an
Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology transition to the last requested operating point.
The processor also supports Enhanced Multi Threaded Thermal Monitoring (EMTTM).
Table 26. Thermal Diode ntrim and Diode Correction Toffset
Symbol Parameter Value
ntrim Diode Ideality used to calculate Toffset 1.01
Datasheet 85
Thermal Specifications and Design Considerations
EMTTM is a processor feature that enhances Intel Thermal Monitor 2 with a processor
throttling algorithm known as Adaptiv e Intel Thermal Monitor 2. Adaptive Intel Thermal
Monitor 2 transitions to intermediate operating points, rather than directly to the LFM,
once the processor has reached its thermal limit and subsequently searches for the
highest possible operating point. Please ensure this feature is enabled and supported in
the BIOS. Also with EMT TM enabled, the operating system can request the processor to
throttling to any point between Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology frequency and
SuperLFM frequency as long as these features are enabled in the BIOS and supported
by the processor. The Intel Thermal Monitor automatic mode and Enhanced Multi
Threaded Thermal Monitoring must be enabled through BIOS for the processor to be
operating within specifications.
Note: Intel Thermal Monitor 1, Intel Thermal Monitor 2 and EMTTM features are collectively
referred to as Adaptive Thermal Monitoring features. Intel recommends Intel Thermal
Monitor 1 and 2 be enabled on the processors.
Intel Thermal Monitor 1 and 2 can co-exist within the processor. If both Intel Thermal
Monitor 1 and 2 bits are enabled in the auto-throttle MSR, Intel Thermal Monitor 2
takes precedence over Intel Thermal Monitor 1. However, if Force Intel Thermal Monitor
1 over Intel Thermal Monitor 2 is enabled in MSRs via BIOS and Intel Thermal Monitor
2 is not sufficient to cool the processor below the maximum operating temperature,
then Intel Thermal Monitor 1 also activates to help cool down the processor.
If a processor load based Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology transition (through
MSR write) is initiated when a Intel Thermal Monitor 2 period is active, there are two
possible results:
1. If the processor load based Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology transition target
frequency is higher than the Intel Thermal Monitor 2 transition-based target
frequency, the processor load-based transition deferrs until the Intel Thermal
Monitor 2 event has been completed.
2. If the processor load-based Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology transition target
frequency is lower than the Intel Thermal Monitor 2 transition-based target
frequency, the processor transitions to the processor load-based Enhanced Intel
SpeedStep Technology target frequency point.
The TCC may also be activ ated via on-demand mode. If bit 4 of the ACPI Intel Thermal
Monitor control register is written to a 1, the TCC activates immediately independent of
the processor temper ature. When using on-demand mode to activate the T CC, the duty
cycle of the clock modulation is programmable via bits 3:1 of the same ACPI Intel
Thermal Monitor control register. In automatic mode, the duty cycle is fixed at 50% on,
50% off, however in on-demand mode, the dut y cycle can be progr ammed from 12.5%
on/ 87.5% off , to 87.5% on/12.5% off in 12.5% increments. On-demand mode may be
used at the same time automatic mode is enabled, however, if the system tries to
enable the TCC via on-demand mode at the same time automatic mode is enabled and
a high temperature condition exists, automatic mode takes precedence.
An external signal, PROCHOT# (processor hot) is asserted when the processor detects
that its temperature is above the thermal trip point. Bus snooping and interrupt
latching are also active while the TCC is active.
Besides the thermal sensor and thermal control circuit, the Intel Thermal Monitor also
includes one ACPI register, one performance counter register, three MSR, and one I/O
pin (PROCHOT #). All are available to monitor and control the state of the Intel Thermal
Monitor feature. The Intel Thermal Monitor can be configured to generate an interrupt
upon the assertion or deassertion of PROCHOT#.
PROCHOT# is not be asserted when the processor is in the Stop Grant, Sleep, Deep
Sleep, and Deeper Sleep low power states, hence the thermal diode reading must be
used as a safeguard to maintain the processor junction temperature within maximum
specification. If the platform thermal solution is not able to maintain the processor
Thermal Specifications and Design Considerations
86 Datasheet
junction temperature within the maximum specification, the system must initiate an
orderly shutdown to prevent damage. If the processor enters one of the above low
power states with PROCHOT# already asserted, PROCHOT# will remain asserted until
the processor exits the low power state and the processor junction temperature drops
below the thermal trip point.
If Intel Thermal Monitor automatic mode is disabled, the processor will be operating out
of specification. Regardless of enabling the automatic or on-demand modes, in the
event of a catastrophic cooling failure, the processor will automatically shut down when
the silicon has reached a temperature of approximately 125°C. At this point the
THERMTRIP# signal will go active. THERMTRIP# activation is independent of processor
activity and does not generate any bus cycles. When THERMTRIP# is asserted, the
processor core voltage must be shut down within the time specified in Chapter 3.
In all cases the Intel Thermal Monitor feature must be enabled for the processor to
remain within specification.
5.1.4 Digital Thermal Sensor
The processor also contains an on die Digital Thermal Sensor (DTS) that can be read
via an MSR (no I/O interface). Each core of the processor will have a unique digital
thermal sensor whose temperature is accessible via the processor MSRs. The DTS is the
preferred method of reading the processor die temperature since it can be located
much closer to the hottest portions of the die and can thus more accurately track the
die temperature and potential activation of processor core clock modulation via the
Intel Thermal Monitor. The DTS is only valid while the processor is in the normal
operating state (the Normal package level low power state).
Unlike traditional thermal devices, the DTS will output a temperature relative to the
maximum supported operating temperature of the processor (TJ,max). It is the
responsibility of software to convert the relative temperature to an absolute
temperature. The temper ature returned by the DTS will always be at or below TJ,max.
Catastrophic temperature conditions are detectable via an Out Of Spec status bit. This
bit is also part of the DTS MSR. When this bit is set, the processor is operating out of
specification and immediate shutdown of the system should occur. The processor
operation and code execution is not guaranteed once the activation of the Out of Spec
status bit is set.
The D TS-relative temperature readout corresp onds to the Intel Thermal Monitor 1/Intel
Thermal Monitor 2 trigger point. When the DTS indicates maximum processor core
temperature has been reached, the Intel Thermal Monitor 1 or 2 hardware thermal
control mechanism will activate. The DTS and Intel Thermal Monitor 1/Intel Thermal
Monitor 2 temperature may not correspond to the thermal diode reading because the
thermal diode is located in a separate portion of the die and thermal gradient between
the individual core DTS. Additionally, the thermal gradient from DTS to thermal diode
can vary substantially due to changes in processor power, mechanical and thermal
attach, and software application. The system designer is required to use the DTS to
guarantee proper operation of the processor within its temperature operating
specifications.
Changes to the temperature can be detected via two progr amm able thresholds located
in the processor MSRs. These thresholds have the capability of generating interrupts
via the core's local APIC. Refer to the Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software
Developer’s Manual for specific register and programming details.
Datasheet 87
Thermal Specifications and Design Considerations
5.1.5 Out of Specification Detection
Overheat detection is performed by monitoring the processor temperature and
temperature gradient. This feature is intended for graceful shut down before the
THERMTRIP# is activated. If the processor’ s Intel Thermal Monitor 1 or 2 are triggered
and the temper ature remains high, an “Out Of Spec” status and sticky bit are latched in
the status MSR register and generates thermal interrupt.
5.1.6 PROCHOT# Signal Pin
An external signal, PROCHOT# (processor hot), is asserted when the processor die
temperature has reached its maximum operating temperature. If Intel Thermal Monitor
1 or 2 is enabled, then the TCC will be active when PROCHOT# is asserted. The
processor can be configured to generate an interrupt upon the assertion or deassertion
of PROCHOT#. Refer to the Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer’s
Manual for specific register and programming details.
The processor implements a bi-directional PROCHOT# capability to allow system
designs to protect various components from overheating situations. The PROCHOT#
signal is bi-directional in that it can either signal when the processor has reached its
maximum operating temperature or be driven from an external source to activate the
TCC. The ability to activate the TCC via PROCHOT# can provide a means for thermal
protection of system components.
Only a single PROCHOT# pin exists at a package level of the processor. When either
core's thermal sensor trips, the PROCHOT# signal will be driven by the processor
package. If only Intel Thermal Monitor 1 is enabled, PROCHOT# will be asserted and
only the core that is above TCC temperature trip point will have its core clocks
modulated. If Intel Thermal Monitor 2 is enabled, then regardless of which core(s) are
above TCC temperature trip point, both cores will enter the lowest programmed Intel
Thermal Monitor 2 performance state. It is important to note that Intel recommends
both Intel Thermal Monitor 1 and 2 to be enabled.
When PROCHOT# is driven by an external agent, if only Intel Thermal Monitor 1 is
enabled on both cores, then both processor cores will hav e their core clocks modulated.
If Intel Thermal Monitor 2 is enabled on both cores, then both processor cores will
enter the lowest programmed Intel Thermal Monitor 2 performance state. It should be
noted that F orce Intel Thermal Monitor 1 on Intel Thermal Monitor 2, enabled via BIOS,
does not have any effect on external PROCHOT#. If PROCHOT# is driven by an external
agent when Intel Thermal Monitor 1, Intel Thermal Monitor 2, and Force Intel Thermal
Monitor 1 on Intel Thermal Monitor 2 are all enabled, then the processor will still apply
only Intel Thermal Monitor 2.
PROCHOT# may be used for thermal protection of voltage regulators (VR). System
designers can create a circuit to monitor the VR temperature and activate the TCC
when the temperature limit of the VR is reached. By asserting PROCHOT# (pulled-low)
and activating the TCC, the VR will cool down as a result of reduced processor power
consumption. Bi-directional PROCHOT# can allow VR thermal designs to target
maximum sustained current instead of maximum current. Systems should still provide
proper cooling for the VR and rely on bi-directional PROCHOT# only as a backup in case
of system cooling failure. The system thermal design should allow the power delivery
circuitry to operate within its temper ature specification even while the processor is
operating at its TDP. With a properly designed and characterized thermal solution, it is
anticipated that bi-directional PROCHO T# would only be asserted for very short periods
of time when running the most power intensive applications. An under-designed
thermal solution that is not able to prevent excessive assertion of PROCHOT# in the
anticipated ambient environment may cause a noticeable performance loss.
