The loadlines specify voltage limits at the die measured at the VCC_SENSE and VSS_SENSE lands. Voltage 
regulation feedback for voltage regulator circuits must also be taken from processor VCC_SENSE and 
VSS_SENSE lands. Please refer to the appropriate platform design guide for further details on regulator and 
decoupling implementations.

 Overshoot Specifications
The Intel Xeon Processor 5500 Series can tolerate short transient overshoot events 
where V
CC
 exceeds the VID voltage when transitioning from a high-to-low current load 
condition. This overshoot cannot exceed VID + V
OS_MAX
 (V
OS_MAX
 is the maximum 
allowable overshoot above VID). These specifications apply to the processor die voltage 
as measured across the VCC_SENSE and VSS_SENSE lands.
