 Processor 7000 Series Datasheet
The BCLK[1:0] inputs directly control the operating speed for the FSB interface. The processor 
core frequency is configured during reset by using values stored internally during manufacturing. 
The stored value sets the highest bus fraction at which the particular processor can operate. If lower 
speeds are desired, the appropriate ratio can be configured by setting bits [15:8] of the 
IA32_FLEX_BRVID_SEL_MSR.  
Clock multiplying within the processor is provided by the internal phase locked loop (PLL), which 
requires a constant frequency BCLK[1:0] input, with exceptions for spread spectrum clocking. 
Processor DC and AC specifications for the BCLK[1:0] inputs are provided in 
.  The 
Dual-Core Intel Xeon processor 7000 series utilizes differential clocks. Details regarding 
BCLK[1:0] driver specifications are provided in the CK409 Clock Synthesizer/Driver Design 
Guidelines

Front Side Bus Clock Select (BSEL[1:0])
The BSEL[1:0] signals are hardwired outputs used to select the frequency of the processor input 
clock (BCLK[1:0]). 
 defines the possible combinations of the signals and the frequency 
associated with each combination. The required frequency is determined by the processor, chipset, 
and clock synthesizer. All processors must operate at the same FSB frequency.
The Dual-Core Intel Xeon processor 7000 series operates at 667 MHz FSB frequency (selected by 
a 166 MHz BCLK[1:0] frequency, respectively). Individual processors operate at the FSB 
frequency specified by BSEL[1:0].
For more information about these pins, refer to 
 and the appropriate platform design 
guide.
