6.2 Processor Information ROM
An electrically programmed read-only memory (ROM) provides information about the Itanium 2
processor. The checksum bits for each category provide error correction and serve as a mechanism
to check whether data is corrupted or not. This information is permanently write-protected.
Table 6-4 shows the data fields and formats provided in the memory.
Note: The data, in byte format, is written and read serially with the most significant bit first.

NOTES:
1. Though this addressing scheme is targeted for up to four-way MP systems, more processors can be supported by using a
multiplexed (or separate) SMBus implementation.
