Platform Environment Control Interface (PECI)

Introduction
PECI offers an interface for thermal monitoring of Intel processor and chipset 
components. It uses a single wire, thus alleviating routing congestion issues. 
 shows an example of the PECI topology in a system with Intel® Xeon® 
Processor 7400 Series. PECI uses CRC checking on the host side to ensure reliable 
transfers between the host and client devices. Also, data transfer speeds across the 
PECI interface are negotiable within a wide range (2 Kbps to 2 Mbps). The PECI 
interface on Intel® Xeon® Processor 7400 Series is disabled by default and must be 
enabled through BIOS.
Note:
1.
Note: The power-on configuration (POC) settings of third party chipsets may produce different PECI 
addresses than those shown in 
. Thermal designers should consult their third party chipset 
designers for the configured PECI addresses.
