FSB Signal Groups

The front side bus signals have been combined into groups by buffer type. GTL+ input
signals have differential input buffers that use GTLREF[1:0] as a reference level. In this
document, the term "GTL+ Input" refers to the GTL+ input group as well as the GTL+
I/O group when receiving. Similarly, "GTL+ Output" refers to the GTL+ output group as
well as the GTL+ I/O group when driving.
With the implementation of a source synchronous data bus comes the need to specify
two sets of timing parameters. One set is for common clock signals that are dependent
upon the rising edge of BCLK0 (ADS#, HIT#, HITM#, and so on) and the second set is
for the source synchronous signals that are relative to their respective strobe lines
(data and address) as well as the rising edge of BCLK0. Asychronous signals are still
present (A20M#, IGNNE#, and so on) and can become active at any time during the
clock cycle.
and asynchronous.

signals are used to support a debug port interposer. In systems with the debug port
implemented on the system board, these signals are no connects.
