Product Overview

The AT8060 is a single width ATCA compliant processor blade. It implements Intel's next generation Xeon
dual processors codename Sandybridge on Romley platform. The AT8060 uses the full bandwidth of the four
DDR3 memory channels with 4 VLP DDR3 Sockets per CPU. High speed interfaces such as dual 10GBase-KX4 in
the fabric interface can deliver maximum performance using the PCIe ports from the processors. Dual 8GT/s
QPI interfaces between both CPUs provide 40GByte/s/direction for a minimum latency on memory access and
CPU process.
The chipset, the Patsburg-B, is connected to the processors via a DMI2 interface and to various I/O
components.
Three Ethernet controllers from Intel are implemented to provide high speed interfaces in the fabric
interface (82599), the base interface (82576) and on both Board and RTM faceplates (Powerville).
Additional I/O interfaces can be added with RTM and AMC cards using the x8 PCIe Gen2 provided for each. 4
SAS2 interfaces are connected to RTM interace from the PCH for storage. The AT8060 operates in two power
level modes, a regular power mode up to 225W for NEBS-like operation and a High Power mode up to 350W
for higher-class chassis applications.
