Notes:
1.
These values are specified at V
CC_MAX
for all processor frequencies. Systems must be designed to ensure
the processor is not to be subjected to any static V
CC
and I
CC
combination wherein V
CC
exceeds V
CC_MAX
at
specified ICC. See the loadline specifications in the Datasheet.
2.
Thermal Design Power (TDP) should be used for processor thermal solution design targets. TDP is not the
maximum power that the processor can dissipate. TDP is measured at maximum T
CASE
.
3.
These specifications are based on initial silicon characterization. These specifications may be further
updated as more characterization data becomes available.
4.
Power specifications are defined at all VIDs found in the Datasheet. The Intel
®
Xeon
®
processor C5500/
C3500 series may be shipped under multiple VIDs for each frequency.
5.
FMB (Flexible Motherboard) guidelines provide a design target for meeting all planned processor frequency
requirements.
