Thermal Specifications and Design Considerations
5.2.5
THERMTRIP# Signal
Regardless of whether or not the Thermal Monitor feature is enabled, in the event of a catastrophic
cooling failure, the processor will automatically shut down when the silicon has reached an
elevated temperature (refer to the THERMTRIP# definition in
cooling failure, the processor will automatically shut down when the silicon has reached an
elevated temperature (refer to the THERMTRIP# definition in
). At this point, the FSB
signal THERMTRIP# will go active and stay active as described in
activation is independent of processor activity and does not generate any bus cycles.

T
CONTROL
and Fan Speed Reduction
T
CONTROL
is a temperature specification based on a temperature reading from the thermal diode.
The value for T
CONTROL
will be calibrated in manufacturing and configured for each processor.
When T
DIODE
is above T
CONTROL
, then T
C
must be at or below T
C-MAX
as defined by the thermal

; otherwise, the processor temperature can be maintained at
T
CONTROL
(or lower) as measured by the thermal diode.
The purpose of this feature is to support acoustic optimization through fan speed control.
5.2.7
Thermal Diode
The processor incorporates an on-die thermal diode. A thermal sensor located on the system board
may monitor the die temperature of the processor for thermal management/long term die
temperature change purposes.

Devices found to have an ideality factor of 1.0183 to 1.023 will create a temperature error approximately 2 °C higher than
the actual temperature. To minimize any potential acoustic impact of this temperature error, T

tween the socket and the external remote diode thermal sensor. RT can be used by remote diode thermal sensors with
automatic series resistance cancellation to calibrate out this error term. Another application is that a temperature offset
can be manually calculated and programmed into an offset register in the remote diode thermal sensors as exemplified
by the equation:
