Introduction
The 2nd Generation Intel
®
Core™ processor family desktop, Intel
®
Pentium
®
processor
family desktop, and Intel
®
Celeron
®
processor family desktop are the next generation
of 64-bit, multi-core desktop processor built on 32- nanometer process technology.
Based on a new micro-architecture, the processor is designed for a two-chip platform
consisting of a processor and Platform Controller Hub (PCH). The platform enables
higher performance, lower cost, easier validation, and improved x-y footprint. The
processor includes Integrated Display Engine, Processor Graphics, PCI Express* ports,
and Integrated Memory Controller. The processor is designed for desktop platforms. It
supports up to 12 Processor Graphics execution units (EUs). The processor is offered in
an 1155-land LGA package.
Figure 1-1 shows an example desktop platform block
diagram.
This document provides DC electrical specifications, signal integrity, differential
signaling specifications, pinout and signal definitions, interface functional descriptions,
thermal specifications, and additional feature information pertinent to the
implementation and operation of the processor on its respective platform.
