Processor core power rail
Processor power for I/O
Processor I/O supply voltage for DDR3
Graphics core power supply.
VCCPLL provides isolated power for internal processor PLLs
System Agent power supply
VIDALERT#, VIDSCLK, and VIDSCLK comprise a three signal serial
synchronous interface used to transfer power management information
between the processor and the voltage regulator controllers. This serial
VID interface replaces the parallel VID interface on previous
processors.
Voltage selection for VCCSA
VCC_SENSE and VSS_SENSE provide an isolated, low impedance
connection to the processor core voltage and ground. They can be
used to sense or measure voltage near the silicon.
VAXG_SENSE and VSSAXG_SENSE provide an isolated, low
impedance connection to the V
be used to sense or measure voltage near the silicon.
VCCIO_SENSE and VSS_SENSE_VCCIO provide an isolated, low
impedance connection to the processor V
They can be used to sense or measure voltage near the silicon.
VDDQ_SENSE and VSSD_SENSE provides an isolated, low
impedance connection to the V
be used to sense or measure voltage near the silicon.
VCCSA_SENSE provide an isolated, low impedance connection to
the processor system agent voltage. It can be used to sense or
measure voltage near the silicon.
Processor ground node
Non-Critical to Function: These pins are for package mechanical
reliability.
