Electrical Specifications 7.10 Platform Environmental Control Interface (PECI) DC Specifications PECI is an Intel proprietary interface that provides a communication channel between Intel processors and chipset components to external thermal monitoring devices. The processor contains a Digital Thermal Sensor (DTS) that reports a relative die temperature as an offset from Thermal Control Circuit (TCC) activation temperature. Temperature sensors located throughout the die are implemented as analog-to-digital converters calibrated at the factory. PECI provides an interface for external devices to read the DTS temperature for thermal management and fan speed control. For the PECI command set supported by the processor, refer to the appropriate processor Thermal and Mechanical Specifications and Design Guidelines for additional information (see Section 1.7). 7.10.1 DC Characteristics The PECI interface operates at a nominal voltage set by VTT. The set of DC electrical specifications shown in Table 7-11 is used with devices normally operating from a VTT interface supply. VTT nominal levels will vary between processor families. All PECI devices will operate at the VTT level determined by the processor installed in the system. For specific nominal VTT levels, refer to Table 7-6. Table 7-11.
