Push-Pull (PP) Drivers
The AMD Athlon XP processor model 10 supports push-pull
(PP) drivers. The system logic configures the processor with the
configuration parameter called SysPushPull (1=PP). The
impedance of the PP drivers is set to match the impedance of
the motherboard by two external resistors connected to the ZN
and ZP pins.
