Type
D[63:0]# (Data) are the data signals. These signals provide a 64-
bit data path between the processor FSB agents, and must connect
the appropriate pins/lands on all such agents. The data driver
asserts DRDY# to indicate a valid data transfer.
D[63:0]# are quad-pumped signals and will, thus, be driven four
times in a common clock period. D[63:0]# are latched off the
falling edge of both DSTBP[3:0]# and DSTBN[3:0]#. Each group of
16 data signals correspond to a pair of one DSTBP# and one
DSTBN#. The following table shows the grouping of data signals to
data strobes and DBI#.

Furthermore, the DBI# signals determine the polarity of the data
signals. Each group of 16 data signals corresponds to one DBI#
signal. When the DBI# signal is active, the corresponding data
group is inverted and therefore sampled active high.
DBI[3:0]# (Data Bus Inversion) are source synchronous and
indicate the polarity of the D[63:0]# signals.The DBI[3:0]# signals
are activated when the data on the data bus is inverted. If more
than half the data bits, within a 16-bit group, would have been
asserted electrically low, the bus agent may invert the data bus
signals for that particular sub-phase for that 16-bit group.

DBR# (Debug Reset) is used only in processor systems where no
debug port is implemented on the system board. DBR# is used by a
Output
debug port interposer so that an in-target probe can drive system
reset. If a debug port is implemented in the system, DBR# is a no
connect in the system. DBR# is not a processor signal.
DBSY# (Data Bus Busy) is asserted by the agent responsible for
driving data on the processor FSB to indicate that the data bus is in
Input/
use. The data bus is released after DBSY# is de-asserted. This
Output
signal must connect the appropriate pins/lands on all processor FSB
agents.
