Functional Architecture Intel® Workstation Board S5000XVN TPS 3.1 Intel® 5000X Memory Controller Hub (MCH) The Memory Controller Hub (MCH) is a single 1432-pin FCBGA package, which includes the following core platform functions: ƒ System Bus Interface for the processor subsystem ƒ Memory Controller ƒ PCI-Express Ports including the Enterprise South Bridge Interface (ESI) ƒ FBD Thermal Management ƒ SMBUS Interface This section provides a high-level overview of some of these core functions as they pertain to this workstation board. You can obtain additional information from the Intel S5000 Server Board Family Datasheet and the Intel 5000 Series Chipset Memory Controller Hub Datasheet. 3.1.1 System Bus Interface The MCH is configured for symmetric multi-processing across two independent front side bus (FSB) interfaces that connect to the Intel® Xeon® processors. Each front side bus on the MCH uses a 64-bit wide 667, 1066, or 1333 MHz data bus. The 1333-MHz data bus is capable of transferring data at up to 10.66 GB/s. The MCH supports a 36-bit wide address bus, capable of addressing up to 64 GB of memory. The MCH is the priority agent for both front side bus interfaces, and is optimized for one processor on each bus. 3.1.2 Processor Support The workstation board supports one or two Intel® Xeon® processors 5000 sequence with system bus speeds of 667 MHz, 1066 MHz, and1333 MHz, and core frequencies starting at 2.66 GHz. This workstation board does not support previous generations of the Intel® Xeon® processor. Note: Only Intel® Xeon® processors 5000 Sequence that support system bus speeds of 667 MHz, 1066 MHz, and 1333 MHz are supported on this workstation board. For a list of supported processors, refer to the following table.
