Electrical Specifications
The Intel® Xeon® processor 7500 series package pin electrical specification is outlined 
in this section. The Intel® Xeon® processor 7500 series interfaces to other 
components of the platform via connections established at Intel
®
 QuickPath 
Interconnect (Intel® QPI), Intel
®
 Scalable Memory Interconnect (Intel
®
 SMI), system 
management interfaces, power, reset, clock and debug signals. The electrical 
characteristics of all such signals, categorized per the I/O type, are documented in this 
section.
2.1
Processor Maximum Ratings
 specifies absolute maximum and minimum ratings. Within operational 
maximum and minimum limits, functionality and long-term reliability can be expected. 
Processor maximum ratings outlined in 
 are applicable for all Intel® Xeon® 
processor 7500 series SKUs. 
At conditions outside operational maximum ratings, but within absolute maximum and 
minimum ratings, neither functionality nor long-term reliability can be expected. If a 
device is returned to conditions within operational maximum and minimum ratings 
after having been subjected to conditions outside these limits, but within the absolute 
maximum and minimum ratings, the device may be functional, but with its lifetime 
degraded depending on exposure to conditions exceeding the functional operation 
condition limits.
At conditions exceeding absolute maximum and minimum ratings, neither functionality 
nor long-term reliability can be expected. Moreover, if a device is subjected to these 
conditions for any length of time, then when returned to conditions within the 
functional operating condition limits, it will either not function, or its reliability will be 
severely degraded.
Although the processor contains protective circuitry to resist damage from static 
electric discharge, precautions should always be taken to avoid high static voltages or 
electric fields.
