Electrical Specifications
2. These voltages are target only. A variable voltage source should exist on systems in the event that a different voltage is required.
See Ararat Voltage Regulator Module Design Guide for more information.
3. Uncore, Core, and Cache voltage and Current Rating are at the Package Pad.
4. The voltage specification requirements are measured across the VCCCORESENSE and VSSCORESENSE pins using an oscilloscope
set to a 100 MHz bandwidth and probes that are 1.5 pF maximum capacitance and 1 MOhm minimum impedance at the processor
socket. The maximum length of ground wire on the probe should be less than 5 mm. Ensure external noise from the system is
not coupled into the scope probe.
5. The voltage specification requirements are measured across the VCCCACHESENSE and VSSCACHESENSE pins using an
oscilloscope set to a 100 MHz bandwidth and probes that are 1.5 pF maximum capacitance and 1 mOhms minimum impedance
at the processor socket. The maximum length of ground wire on the probe should be less than 5 mm. Ensure external noise from
the system is not coupled into the scope probe.
6. Warm boot reset, only in downward direction.
7. Min and Max range is spec at the die for both VCCIO. This range includes 50 mV p-p AC noise. It also includes any DC and AC
tolerances at package pin.
8. The FMB remote sense tolerance is ±2.5% for DC to 20 MHz at the package, where ±1.5% is allotted for a DC to 1 MHz range
and an additional ±1% for 1 MHz to 20 MHz. Similarly, ±6.4% is allotted for DC to 20 MHz at the die. It is expected that VCCIO
regulators meet ±1.5% at the remote sense location based on the general remote sense termination point location as described
, VR Sense Point (Representation). For future processor compatibility, it is strongly recommended that the platform
query the PIROM to assure VCCIO is set to the appropriate level prior to powering up the VCCIO supply.
9. All voltage regulation measurements taken at remote sense termination points.
10.For peak-to-peak Ripple and Noise (R&N) measured with full bandwidth (BW) of the scope (Min 1 GHz BW scope is required):
set scope diff probe and the scope at full BW (capture waveform A, channel 1).
11.For peak-to-peak Ripple and Noise (R&N) measured above 1 MHz:
Step 1 = set both: scope diff probe and/or the scope at 1 MHz BW limit (capture waveform B, channel 2).
Step 2 = calculate A-B (use scope Math function: subtract channel 1 - channel 2).

Notes:
1. ICC_CORE_TDC is the sustained (DC equivalent) current that the processor core is capable of drawing indefinitely and should be
used for the Ararat voltage regulator temperature assessment. The Ararat voltage regulator is responsible for monitoring its
temperature and asserting the VR_FAN_N, VR_THERMALERT_N, VR_THERMTRIP_N signals sequentially to inform the processor
and platform of a thermal excursion. Of the three signals, only VR_THERMALTERT_N is monitored by the processor. Please see
the Ararat Voltage Regulator Module Design Guide for further details. The processor is capable of drawing ICC_CORE_TDC
indefinitely. Refer to
for further details on the average processor current draw over various time durations. This
parameter is based on design characterization and is not tested.
