Introduction
The Intel

Pentium

D processor extends Intel's Desktop dual-core product line. The Pentium D
processor uses Flip-Chip Land Grid Array (FC-LGA4) package technology, and plugs into a 775-
land LGA socket, referred to as the LGA775 socket. The Pentium D processor, like the Intel
land LGA socket, referred to as the LGA775 socket. The Pentium D processor, like the Intel

microarchitecture and
maintains the tradition of compatibility with IA-32 software.

as an enhancement to Intel's IA-32 architecture, on server and workstation platforms.
This enhancement enables the processor to execute operating systems and applications written to

The Pentium D processor functions as two physical processors in one package. This allows a
duplication of execution resources to provide increased system responsiveness in multitasking
environments, and headroom for next generation multithreaded applications and new usages.

environments, and headroom for next generation multithreaded applications and new usages.
The Pentium D processor supports all the existing Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (SSE2) and
Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 (SSE3). Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 (SSE3) are 13 additional
instructions that further extend the capabilities of Intel processor technology. These new
instructions enhance the performance of optimized applications for the digital home such as video,
image processing, and media compression technology.

The processor’s Intel NetBurst microarchitecture FSB uses a split-transaction, deferred reply
protocol like the Intel Pentium 4 processor. The Intel NetBurst microarchitecture FSB uses Source-
Synchronous Transfer (SST) of address and data to improve performance by transferring data four
times per bus clock (4X data transfer rate, as in AGP 4X). Along with the 4X data bus, the address
bus can deliver addresses two times per bus clock and is referred to as a "double-clocked" or 2X
address bus. Working together, the 4X data bus and 2X address bus provide a data bus bandwidth
of up to 6.4 GB/s.

The Pentium D processor includes the Execute Disable Bit capability. This feature, combined with
a supported operating system, allows memory to be marked as executable or non-executable. If
code attempts to run in non-executable memory the processor raises an error to the operating
system. This feature can prevent some classes of viruses or worms that exploit buffer over run
vulnerabilities and can thus help improve the overall security of the system. See the Intel

Intel will enable support components for the processor including heatsink, heatsink retention
mechanism, and socket. Manufacturability is a high priority; hence, mechanical assembly may be
completed from the top of the baseboard and should not require any special tooling.
