1.1 Terminology

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 where the name does not imply an active state but describes part of a binary sequence (such as address or data), the “#” symbol implies that the signal 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 packaging 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.

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 central power management logic ensures that the entire processor enters the respective package low power state by initiating a P_LVLx (P_LVL2, 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 processor’s 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_LVLx 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.

2.1.1 Core Low Power State Descriptions

2.1.1.1 Core C0 State

This is the normal operating state for cores in the processor.

2.1.1.2 Core C1/AutoHALT Powerdown State

C1/AutoHALT is a low power state entered when a core executes the HALT instruction. Figure 2. Package Low Power States Table 1. Coordination of Core Low Power States at the Package Level † — Deeper Sleep includes the Deeper Sleep state and Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep state.

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 Powerdown 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_LVL2 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_LVL3 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_LVL4 I/O read to the P_BLK or an MWAIT(C4) instruction. The processor core behavior 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.

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 V CCP) 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 interrupts 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 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.

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 Sleep state is entered through assertion of the DPSLP# pin while in 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 mu st 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 DPSLP# 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 Deeper 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 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.

Exit from Deeper Sleep or Intel Enhanced Deeper Sleep state is initiated by DPRSTP# deassertion when either core requests a core state 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 re duces 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 corre sponding 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 Read support. When enabled, the CPU issues a P_LVL5 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 th e current 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 point occurs. — An interrupt is generated for the up and down Intel Thermal Monitor transitions 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 request a lower operating point called SuperLFM (due to Dynamic FSB Frequency Switching) and a higher operating point Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology mode.

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 change 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 temporarily operate at a higher 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 Technology mode enabling requires:

  • Exposure, via BIOS, of the opportunistic frequency as the highest ACPI P state.
  • Enhanced Multi-Threaded Th ermal 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 (I CC_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 point 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.

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. Enhanced Intel 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:

  • D y n a m i c F S B P o w e r D o w n
  • BPRI# control for address and control input buffers
  • Dynamic Bus Parking
  • Dynamic On Die Termination disabling
  • L o w 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 Parking 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

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

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 fracture 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 transient 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.

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 n

Thermal Specifications and Design Considerations EMTTM is a processor feature that enhances Intel Thermal Monitor 2 with a processor throttling algorithm known as Adaptive 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 EMTTM 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 activated 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 temperature. When using on-demand mode to activate the TCC, 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 duty cycle can be programmed from 12.5% 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

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 (T J,max). It is the responsibility of software to convert the relative temperature to an absolute temperature. The temperature 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 DTS-relative temperature readout corresponds 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 programmable 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.

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 temperature 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 have 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 Force 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 temperature specification even while the processor is operating at its TDP. With a properly designed and characterized thermal solution, it is anticipated that bi-directional PROCHOT# 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.
