Land Listing and Signal Descriptions
THERMTRIP#
Output
In the event of a catastrophic cooling failure, the processor will
automatically shut down when the silicon has reached a
temperature approximately 20 °C above the maximum T
C
.
Assertion of THERMTRIP# (Thermal Trip) indicates the processor
junction temperature has reached a level beyond where permanent
silicon damage may occur. Upon assertion of THERMTRIP#, the
processor will shut off its internal clocks (thus, halting program
execution) in an attempt to reduce the processor junction
temperature. To protect the processor, its core voltage (V
CC
) must
be removed following the assertion of THERMTRIP#.
Driving of the
THERMTRIP# signal is enabled within 10
μ
s of the assertion of
PWRGOOD (provided V
TT
and V
CC
are valid) and is disabled on de-
assertion of PWRGOOD (if V
TT
or V
CC
are not valid, THERMTRIP#
may also be disabled). Once activated, THERMTRIP# remains
latched until PWRGOOD, V
TT
, or V
CC
is de-asserted. While the de-
assertion of the PWRGOOD, V
TT
, or V
CC
will de-assert THERMTRIP#,
if the processor’s junction temperature remains at or above the trip
level, THERMTRIP# will again be asserted within 10
μ
s of the
assertion of PWRGOOD (provided V
TT
and V
CC
are valid).
TMS
Input
TMS (Test Mode Select) is a JTAG specification support signal used
by debug tools.
TRDY#
Input
TRDY# (Target Ready) is asserted by the target to indicate that it is
ready to receive a write or implicit writeback data transfer. TRDY#
must connect the appropriate pins/lands of all FSB agents.
TRST#
Input
TRST# (Test Reset) resets the Test Access Port (TAP) logic. TRST#
must be driven low during power on Reset.
VCC
Input
VCC are the power pins for the processor. The voltage supplied to
these pins is determined by the VID[7:0] pins.
VCCPLL
Input
VCCPLL provides isolated power for internal processor FSB PLLs.
VCC_SENSE
Output
VCC_SENSE is an isolated low impedance connection to processor
core power (V
CC
). It can be used to sense or measure voltage near
the silicon with little noise.
VCC_MB_
REGULATION
Output
This land is provided as a voltage regulator feedback sense point for
V
CC
. It is connected internally in the processor package to the sense
point land U27 as described in the
Voltage Regulator-Down (VRD)
11.0 Processor Power Delivery Design Guidelines For Desktop
LGA775 Socket.
VID[7:0]
Output
VID[7:0] (Voltage ID) signals are used to support automatic
selection of power supply voltages (V
CC
). Refer to the
Voltage
Regulator-Down (VRD) 11.0 Processor Power Delivery Design
Guidelines For Desktop LGA775 Socket
for more information. The
voltage supply for these signals must be valid before the VR can
supply V
CC
to the processor. Conversely, the VR output must be
disabled until the voltage supply for the VID signals becomes valid.
The VID signals are needed to support the processor voltage
specification variations. See
Table 2
for definitions of these signals.
The VR must supply the voltage that is requested by the signals, or
disable itself.
VID_SELECT
Output
This land is tied high on the processor package and is used by the
VR to choose the proper VID table. Refer to the
Voltage Regulator-
Down (VRD) 11.0 Processor Power Delivery Design Guidelines For
Desktop LGA775 Socket
for more information.
