Electrical Specifications 

The processor DC specifications in this section are defined at the processor 
pins, unless noted otherwise. See 

 for the processor pin listings and 

 for signal definitions.

• The DC specifications for the DDR3 signals are listed in 

 Control Sideband 

and Test Access Port (TAP) are listed in 

•

 lists the DC specifications for the processor and are valid only while 

meeting specifications for junction temperature, clock frequency, and input 
voltages. Care should be taken to read all notes associated with each parameter.

• AC tolerances for all DC rails include dynamic load currents at switching frequencies 

up to 1 MHz.

Noise measurements on SENSE pins for all voltage supplies should be made with a  

20-MHz bandwidth oscilloscope.
