Stop-Grant State
When the STPCLK# signal is asserted, the Stop-Grant state of the processor is entered 20 bus
clocks after the response phase of the processor-issued Stop Grant Acknowledge special bus cycle.
Since the GTL+ signals receive power from the FSB, these signals should not be driven (allowing
the level to return to V
addition, all other input signals on the FSB should be driven to the inactive state.
BINIT# will not be serviced while the processor is in Stop-Grant state. The event will be latched
and can be serviced by software upon exit from the Stop Grant state.
RESET# will cause the processor to immediately initialize itself, but the processor will stay in
Stop-Grant state. A transition back to the Normal state will occur with the de-assertion of the
STPCLK# signal.
A transition to the HALT/Grant Snoop state will occur when the processor detects a snoop on the
FSB (see
While in the Stop-Grant State, SMI#, INIT#, BINIT# and LINT[1:0] will be latched by the
processor, and only serviced when the processor returns to the Normal State. Only one occurrence
of each event will be recognized upon return to the Normal state.
While in Stop-Grant state, the processor will process a FSB snoop.
