Introduction
The Intel
®
 Pentium
®
 dual-core processor E6000 and E5000 series are based on the 
Enhanced Intel
®
 Core™ microarchitecture. The Intel Enhanced Core™ 
microarchitecture combines the performance of previous generation Desktop products 
with the power efficiencies of a low-power microarchitecture to enable smaller, quieter 
systems. The Intel Pentium dual-core processor E6000 and E5000 series are 64-bit 
processors that maintain compatibility with IA-32 software. 
Note:
In this document, the Intel
®
 Pentium
®
 dual-core processor E6000 and E5000 series 
may be referred to as "the processor."
Note:
In this document, unless otherwise specified, the Intel
®
 Pentium
®
 dual-core processor 
E5000 series refers to the Intel
®
 Pentium
®
 dual-core processor E5200, E5300, and 
E5400. 
Note:
In this document, unless otherwise specified, the Intel
®
 Pentium
®
 dual-core processor 
E6000 series refers to the Intel
®
 Pentium
®
 dual-core processor E6500 and E6300.
The processors use Flip-Chip Land Grid Array (FC-LGA8) package technology, and plugs 
into a 775-land surface mount, Land Grid Array (LGA) socket, referred to as the 
LGA775 socket. 
The processors are based on 45 nm process technology. The processors feature the 
Intel
®
 Advanced Smart Cache, a shared multi-core optimized cache that significantly 
reduces latency to frequently used data. The processors feature an 800 MHz or 
1066 MHz front side bus (FSB) and 2 MB of L2 cache. The processors support all the 
existing Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (SSE2), Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 (SSE3), 
and Supplemental Streaming SIMD Extension 3 (SSSE3). The processors support 
several Advanced Technologies: Execute Disable Bit, Intel
®
 64 architecture, and 
Enhanced Intel SpeedStep
®
 Technology. The Intel
®
 Pentium
®
 dual-core processor 
E6000 series supports Intel
®
 Virtualization Technology (Intel
®
 VT). 
The processor's front side bus (FSB) use a split-transaction, deferred reply protocol. 
The FSB uses Source-Synchronous Transfer of address and data to improve 
performance by transferring data four times per bus clock (4X data transfer rate). 
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 8.5 GB/s. 
Intel has enabled 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.
1.1
Terminology
A ‘#’ symbol after a signal name refers to an active low signal, indicating a signal is in 
the active state when driven to a low level. For example, when RESET# is low, a reset 
has been requested. Conversely, when NMI is high, a nonmaskable interrupt has 
occurred. In the case of signals where the name does not imply an active state but 
describes part of a binary sequence (such as address or data), the ‘#’ symbol implies 
that the signal is inverted. For example, D[3:0] = ‘HLHL’ refers to a hex ‘A’, and 
D[3:0]# = ‘LHLH’ also refers to a hex ‘A’ (H= High logic level, L= Low logic level).
