• Unit Interval (UI) — Signaling convention that is binary and unidirectional. In
this binary signaling, one bit is sent for every edge of the forwarded clock, whether
it is a rising edge or a falling edge. If a number of edges are collected at instances
t , t

• Jitter — Any timing variation of a transition edge or edges from the defined Unit
Interval.
• Storage Conditions — Refers to a non-operational state. The processor may be
installed in a platform, in a tray, or loose. Processors may be sealed in packaging or
exposed to free air. Under these conditions, processor lands should not be
connected to any supply voltages, have any I/Os biased, or receive any clocks.
• OEM — Original Equipment Manufacturer.
