CK-408 Updates for Systems based on Intel Pentium M
Processor / Intel Celeron M Processor and Intel 855PM
Chipset
To maximize the power savings on systems based on Intel Pentium M processor / Intel Celeron M
processor and Intel 855PM chipset, additional registers have been added to the CK-408 clock generator
to allow option to tri-state the CPU[2:0] host clocks during CPU_STOP# or PWRDWN assertion. The
option to have CPU[2:0] driven (default) or tri-stated can be programmed via the serial I
2
C bus interface
to the CK-408 clock driver. If the tri-state feature on the CPU[2:0] signals is chosen, it is recommended
that the STP_CPU# signal from the ICH4-M drive the CK-408’s CPU_STOP# signal. Also, it is
recommended that the ICH4-M’s DPSLP# signal be connected to the DPSLP# pin of the processor and
MCH. Functionally, the ICH4-M’s STP_CPU# and DPSLP# signals are equivalent. However,
STP_CPU# is powered by the main I/O well (3.3 V) and is sent to the CK-408 whereas DPSLP# is
driven to the processor interface voltage (1.05 V).

CK-408 PWRDWN# Signal Connections
For Intel Pentium M processor / Intel Celeron M processor based systems that support the S1M state, the
PWRDWN# input of the CK-408 clock chip is
required
to be driven by
both
the SLP_S1# and
SLP_S3# signals from the Intel 82801DBM ICH4-M, i.e. the PWRDWN# pin of the CK-408 should be
driven by the output of the logical AND of the SLP_S1# and SLP_S3# signals. This configuration best
allows CPU[2:0] to be tri-stated during S1-M or lower (numerically higher) states.
For systems that do not support S1M but do support the S3 state, the PWRDWN# input of the CK-408
clock chip should be connected to the SLP_S3# output of the ICH4-M. It is
not
recommended that
PWRDWN# be pulled-up to the CK-408’s 3.3-V power supply if the S3 state is the second highest,
power consuming state supported by the platform (i.e., S1M and S2 not supported). The advantage of
using SLP_S3# rather than the 3.3-V supply to qualify PWRDWN# is that it reduces the likelihood of
the CK-408 clocks driving into unpowered components and potentially damaging the clock input
buffers. Also SLP_S3# can help reduce power consumption because it will be asserted before the 3.3-V
supply will be shut off, thus minimizing the amount of time that the clocks will be left toggling.
