Lists each Intel Quark SoC X1000 Core signal and describes its function.
Describes the testability of the Intel
cache testing, translation lookaside buffer (TLB) testing, and JTAG.
Documents the CPUID function, which is used to determine the Intel
X1000 Core identification and processor-specific information.
The pound symbol (#) appended to a signal name indicates that
the signal is active low.
Variables are shown in italics. Variables must be replaced with
correct values.
New terms are shown in italics.
Instruction mnemonics are shown in upper case. When you are
programming, instructions are not case-sensitive. You may use
either upper or lower case.
Hexadecimal numbers are represented by a string of
hexadecimal digits followed by the character H. A zero prefix is
added to numbers that begin with A through F. (For example, FF
is shown as 0FFH.) Decimal and binary numbers are
represented by their customary notations. (That is, 255 is a
decimal number and 1111 1111 is a binary number. In some
cases, the letter B is added for clarity.)
The following abbreviations are used to represent units of
measure:
A amps, amperes
mA milliamps, milliamperes
µA microamps,
microamperes
Mbyte megabytes
Kbyte kilobytes
Gbyte gigabyte
W watts
KW kilowatts
mW milliwatts
µW microwatts
MHz megahertz
ms milliseconds
ns nanoseconds
