Datasheet, Volume 1

The following notes apply to 

1

The TDPs given are not the maximum power the processor can generate. Analysis indicates that 

real applications are unlikely to cause the processor to consume the theoretical maximum power 

dissipation for sustained periods of time.

2

TDP workload may consist of a combination of a CPU-core intensive and a graphics-core 

intensive applications.

3

The thermal solution needs to ensure that the processor temperature does not exceed the 

maximum junction temperature (Tj,max) limit, as measured by the DTS and the critical 

temperature bit.

4

The processor junction temperature is monitored by Digital Temperature Sensors (DTS). For DTS 

accuracy, refer to 

.

5

Digital Thermal Sensor (DTS) based fan speed control is required to achieve optimal thermal 

performance. Intel recommends full cooling capability well before the DTS reading reaches 

Tj,Max. An example of this is Tj,Max – 10 ºC.

6

The idle power specifications are not 100% tested. These power specifications are determined 

by the characterization at higher temperatures and extrapolating the values for the junction 

temperature indicated.

7

At Tj of Tj,max

8

At Tj of 50 ºC

9

At Tj of 35 ºC

10

Can be modified at runtime by MSR writes, with MMIO and with PECI commands

11

'Turbo Time Parameter' is a mathematical parameter (unit in seconds) that controls the 

processor turbo algorithm using a moving average of energy usage. Avoid setting the Turbo 

Time Parameter to a value less than 0.1 seconds. Refer to 

12

Shown limit is a time averaged power, based upon the Turbo Time Parameter. Absolute product 

power may exceed the set limits for short durations or under virus or uncharacterized 

workloads.

13

. If the power 

value and/or ‘Turbo Time Parameter’ is changed during runtime, it may take a short period of 

time (approximately 3 to 5 times the ‘Turbo Time Parameter’) for the algorithm to settle at the 

new control limits.

14

This is a hardware default setting and not a behavioral characteristic of the part.

15

For controllable turbo workloads, the limit may be exceeded for up to 10 ms

16

Tjmax for some Dual Core SV SKUs in rPGA package will be 85 °C. Refer to Dear Customer 

Letters (DCLs) or contact your field representative to get details of SKUs that have Tjmax of 

85 °C.
