C3.
Processor Thermal Specification Change and TDP Redefined
The Thermal Design Power (TDP) for Celeron processors has been redefined. Table 2 details TDP for
Celeron processors. The updated TDP values are based on device characterization and do not reflect any
silicon design changes to lower processor power consumption. Absolute power consumption has not
changed; however, the max thermal design power specifications are being updated to reflect actual silicon
performance. The TDP values represent the thermal design point required to cool Celeron processors in the
platform environment. This replaces column 3 and column 4, Processor Power and Processor Core Power,
from Table 37 of the
Intel
®
Celeron
®
Processor Datasheet
.
Additional derating of the thermal design power and design requirements will result in a processor Tj
max temperature specification violation and will affect proper functionality of the processor
. Operation
of a processor outside of the specifications will result in undetermined behavior that may result in immediate
system failure or degradation of the processor’s functional lifetime. Note that the TDP specifications are
thermal design requirements only
and do not reflect voltage regulation or power delivery specification
changes.
