Intel® Xeon® Processor 7500 Datasheet, Volume 1
PWRGOOD
I
The processor requires this signal to be a clean indication that all Intel® Xeon® 
processor 7500 series clocks and power supplies are stable and within their 
specifications. “Clean” implies that the signal will remain low (capable of sinking 
leakage current), without glitches, from the time that the power supplies are turned 
on until they come within specification. The signal must then transition 
monotonically to a high state. PWRGOODcan be driven inactive at any time, but 
clocks and power must again be stable before a subsequent rising edge of 
PWRGOOD.
The PWRGOOD signal must be supplied to the processor at 1.1V. This signal is used 
to protect internal circuits against voltage sequencing issues. It should be driven 
high throughout boundary scan operation. VCCSTBY33 signal should be stable for 10 
SYSCLOCKs before PWRGOOD is asserted.
QPI[3:0]_DRx_D[P/N][19:0], 
QPI[3:0]_CLKRX_D[P/N]
I
These Intel® QuickPath Interconnect input data signals provide means of 
communication between two Intel® QuickPath Interconnect ports via one uni-
directional transfer link (In). The Rx links, are terminally ground referenced. These 
signals can be configured as a full width link with 20 active lanes, a half width link 
with 10 active lanes or as a quarter width link with five active lanes.
Example: QPI4RPDAT[0] represents Intel® QuickPath Interconnect port 5 Data, lane 
0,receive signal and Positive bit of the differential pair.
QPI[3:0]_DTX_D[P/
N][19:0],QPI[3:0]_clkTX_D[P/N]
O
These Intel® QuickPath Interconnect output data signals provide means of 
communication between two Intel® QuickPath Interconnect ports via one uni-
directional transfer link (Out).The links, Tx, are terminally ground referenced. These 
signals can be configured as a full width link with 20 active lanes, a half width link 
with 10 active lanes or as a quarter width link with five active lanes.
Example: QPI4RPDAT[0] represents Intel® QuickPath Interconnect port 5 Data, lane 
0,Transmit signal and Positive bit of the differential pair.
RESET_N
I
Asserting the RESET_N signal resets the processor to a known state and invalidates 
its internal caches without writing back any of their contents. BOOTMODE[0:1] 
signals are sampled at the active-to-inactive transition of RESET_N for selecting 
appropriate BOOTMODE. Also RUNBIST is sampled at the active-to-inactive 
transition of RESET_N to select BIST operation.
RSVD
These Pins are reserved and should be treated as NO CONNECT, left unconnected. 
RUNBIST
I
This input pin is sampled on a active-to-inactive transition of RESET_N. If sampled 
high, this enables BIST (Recommended).
SKTDIS_N
I
Sampled with the rising edge of RESET_N input. Asserted, signal will disable the 
socket, tri-state I/O. 
SKTID[2:0]
I
Socket ID strapping pins.
 
These pins determine the addresses to be used on the 
SMBus to access the processor.
SKTOCC_N
O
Static signal, asserted low when the socket is occupied with processor. 
SM_WP
I
WP (Write Protect) can be used to write protect the Scratch EEPROM. The Scratch 
EEPROM is write-protected when this input is pulled high to VCCSTBY33.
