Processor Information ROM (PIROM)
The lower half (128 bytes) of the SMBus memory component is an electrically 
programmed read-only memory with information about the processor. This information 
is permanently write-protected. 
provides the formats of the data fields included in the Processor Information ROM 
(PIROM).
The PIROM consists of the following sections:
• Header
• Processor Data
• Processor Core Data
• Cache  Data
• Package  Data
• Part Number Data
• Thermal Reference Data
• Feature Data
• Other Data
Table 7-6.
