Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 5300 Series Datasheet
Monitor software enabling multiple, independent software environments inside a single 
platform. Further details on Intel Virtualization Technology can be found at

The Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 5300 Series are intended for high performance 
server and workstation systems. The processors support a Dual Independent Bus (DIB) 
architecture with one processor on each bus, up to two processor sockets in a system. 
The DIB architecture provides improved performance by allowing increased FSB speeds 
and bandwidth. The processors will be packaged in an FC-LGA6 Land Grid Array 
package with 771 lands for improved power delivery. It utilizes a surface mount 
LGA771 socket that supports Direct Socket Loading (DSL).
Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 5300 Series based platforms implement 
independent core voltage (V
CC
) power planes for each processor. FSB termination 
voltage (V
TT
) is shared and must connect to all FSB agents. The processor core voltage 
utilizes power delivery guidelines specified by VRM/EVRD 11.0 and its associated load 
line (see Voltage Regulator Module (VRM) and Enterprise Voltage Regulator-Down 
(EVRD) 11.0 Design Guidelines
 for further details). VRM/EVRD 11.0 will support the 
power requirements of all frequencies of the processors including Flexible Motherboard 
Guidelines (FMB) (see 
). Refer to the appropriate platform design 
guidelines for implementation details.
The Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 5300 Series support 1333, or 1066 MHz Front 
Side Bus operation. The FSB utilizes a split-transaction, deferred reply protocol and 
Source-Synchronous Transfer (SST) of address and data to improve performance. The 
processor transfers 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 a 2X address bus. In addition, the 
Request Phase completes in one clock cycle. Working together, the 4X data bus and 2X 
address bus provide a data bus bandwidth of up to 10.66 GBytes (1333 MHz), or 8.5 
GBytes (1066 MHz) per second. The FSB is also used to deliver interrupts.
Signals on the FSB use Assisted Gunning Transceiver Logic (AGTL+) level voltages. 
 contains the electrical specifications of the FSB while implementation 
details are fully described in the appropriate platform design guidelines (refer to 
).
