SMBus Device Addressing
Of the addresses broadcast across the SMBus, the memory components claim those of the form 
“1010XXYZb”. The “XX” and “Y” bits are used to enable the devices on the processor at adjacent 
addresses. The Y bit is hard-wired on the processor to GND (‘0’) for the Scratch EEPROM and 
pulled to 3.3V (‘1’) for the processor information ROM. The “XX” bits are defined by the 
processor socket via the SMA0 and SMA1 pins on the Itanium 2 processor connector. These 
address pins have a weak pull-down (10 k
Ω) to ensure that the memory components are in a known 
state in systems which do not support the SMBus, or only support a partial implementation. The 
“Z” bit is the read/write bit for the serial bus transaction.
The thermal sensing device internally decodes 1 of 3 upper address patterns from the bus of the 
form “0011XXXZb”, “1001XXXZb” or “0101XXXZb”. The device’s addressing, as implemented, 
uses SMA2 and SMA1 and includes a Hi-Z state for the SMA2 address pin. Therefore, the thermal 
sensing device supports six unique resulting addresses. To set the Hi-Z state for SMA2, the pin 
must be left floating. The system should drive SMA1 and SMA0, and will be pulled low (if not 
driven) by the 10 k
Ω pull-down resistor on the processor substrate. Attempting to drive either of 
these signals to a Hi-Z state would cause ambiguity in the memory device address decode, possibly 
resulting in the devices not responding, thus timing out or hanging the SMBus. As before, the “Z” 
bit is the read/write bit for the serial bus transaction.

address pin connections and how they affect the addressing of the devices.
Note:
Addresses of the form “0000XXXXb” are Reserved and should not be generated by an SMBus 
master. Also, system management software must be aware of the processor select in the address for 
the thermal sensing device.
