2.0 Introduction

This document describes the required changes to Intel® Xeon™ processor-based

platforms in order to provide Intel® Xeon™ processor with 512 KB L2 cache compatibility.

The information in this document should be used in conjunction with specifications

1.80 GHz, 2 GHz, and 2.20 GHz Datasheet and Intel® Xeon™ Processor at 1.40 GHz,

1.50 GHz, 1.70 GHz and 2 GHz Datasheet,as well as information provided in other

processor related design guides listed in the References section below. Design decisions

should always be based on information contained in the latest applicable processor

datasheet. For proper and reliable processor operation, the designer must ensure that the

requirements in this guideline are fully satisfied.

2.1 Audience

This document is targeted at the following audience:

•Intel Xeon processor-based system developers who want to ensure system

compatibility with the Intel Xeon processor with 512 KB L2 cache.

Intel® Xeon™ Processor with 512 KB L2 Cache System Compatibility Guidelines

3.0 Compatibility

Implementing the changes outlined in this document will help assure that an Intel®

Xeon™ processor-based system design will be compatible with the Intel Xeon processor

with 512 KB L2 cache. Compatibility is likely to be ultimately limited by the ability of the

system to supply the required current and to adequately cool the processor.

4.0 SM_VCC

SM_VCC must be connected to the system 3.3 volt power supply since the Intel® Xeon™

processor with 512 KB L2 cache drives the voltage identification (VID) outputs using core

circuitry powered by the SM_VCC supply.

Refer to Section 6.0 for further considerations involving the power sequencing

requirements of SM_VCC

5.0 603-Pin Socket Pin Definition Changes

The Intel® Xeon™ processor with 512 KB L2 cache is mechanically and electrically

compatible with the same 603-pin socket used for the Intel Xeon processor. However, in

order to support the increased frequencies offered by the Intel Xeon processor with 512

KB L2 cache, "Reserved" and "N.C." pins from the original Intel Xeon processor pin

definition have been designated as either VCC or VSS. Intel Xeon processor-based

platforms need to redefine the 603-pin socket pin map as listed in the “New Name”

column of Table 1 to allow compatibility with the Intel Xeon processor with 512 KB L2

cache.

6.0 VCC Power Sequencing

As outlined in Section 4.0, a 3.3 volt power supply must be connected to the Intel®

Xeon™ processor with 512 KB L2 cache SM_VCC pins (AE28 & AE29). SM_VCC is the

supply voltage used for the SMBus functions and for the VID output signal circuits. The

VID signals are programmed by Intel during the manufacturing process so that the VRM

output voltage will be set correctly. As indicated in Figure 1, the VID outputs will be valid

within 10 milliseconds after the time at which the 3.3 volt supply reaches 95% of its

nominal value. For a power supply that adheres to the ATX12V power supply design

guidelines, PWR_OK will be generated no less than 100 milliseconds after all of its

outputs reach their respective 95% values (please refer to the document ATX/ATX12V

Power Supply Design Guide). Similarly, for a power supply that adheres to the Server

System Infrastructure (SSI) power supply specification, PWR_OK will be generated no

less than 100 milliseconds after all of its outputs are within their respective regulation

limits (please refer to the document MPS Power Supply: A Server System Infrastructure

(SSI) Specification For Midrange Chassis Power Supplies).PWR_OKmaybeusedto

enable the output of the VRM (VCC) using the OUTEN signal. The VRM PWRGD output,

in conjunction with the rest of the system’s powergood logic, may be used to generate the

PWRGOOD input to the processor. PWR_OK will be deasserted when any output of an

ATX12V-compliant or SSI-compliant power supply falls below regulation limits. It is

important to maintain SM_VCC at any time the output of the VRM is enabled. Driving the

VRM’s OUTEN with the PWR_OK signal will ensure correct sequencing at both power up

and power down.

Intel® Xeon™ Processor with 512 KB L2 Cache System Compatibility Guidelines

7.0 Power and Signal Levels

The VID for the Intel® Xeon™ processor with 512 KB L2 cache is 1.500 volts compared to

a VID level of 1.700 volts for the Intel Xeon processor. The Intel Xeon processor with 512

KB L2 cache still uses a single core voltage supply (VCC) to supply the termination voltage

(VTT). Table 2 outlines changes to the way AGTL+ signal level specifications are defined

for the Intel Xeon processor with 512 KB L2 cache. The Intel Xeon processor with 512 KB

L2 cache defines the VIH and VIL specifications based on a percentage of the GTLREF

level instead of a fixed voltage offset level. In Table 2, use a value of GTLREF = 2/3*VCC

for both processors. It is important to simulate the system bus to ensure that these levels

are met. Other bus electrical characteristics are expected to be compatible with the Intel®

Xeon™ processor specifications. Refer to the processor datasheets given in Section 2.2

for complete details regarding all processor specifications referenced in this section.

NOTE: These values are for reference only. The latest processor datasheet contains the actual specifications

for the processor. If the specifications in this table conflict with the specifications found in the datasheet,

the datasheet supersedes.

8.0 VRM 9.0 and VRM 9.1

Voltage regulator designs for Intel® Xeon™ processor-based platforms were initially

basedonIntel’sVRM 9.0 DC-DC Converter Design Guidelines. However, to provide

additional VRM high current capability for new platforms, Intel created an updated voltage

regulator design guide entitled VRM 9.1 DC-DC Converter Design Guidelines. Intel Xeon

processor platforms intending to support the Intel Xeon processor with 512 KB L2 cache

are not required to upgrade to VRM 9.1 and may continue to use VRM 9.0 voltage

regulator solutions. However, new platforms should consider implementing VRM 9.1 since

it provides the most recent voltage regulator design guidelines for the Intel Xeon

processor with 512 KB L2 cache.

9.0 Core Frequency to System Bus Ratio Determination

The core frequency to system bus ratio for the Intel® Xeon™ processor is configured by

driving the ratio select signals (LINT[1]/NMI, A20M#, IGNNE#, and LINT[0]/INTR) with

appropriate ratio encoding values during processor power-on reset. The Intel Xeon

processor with 512 KB L2 cache implements a new method for setting the core frequency

to system bus ratio and will ignore the ratio select signals at power-on reset. The Intel
