RESERVED
All RESERVED lands must remain unconnected. Connection of these 
lands to V

, or to any other signal (including each other) 
can result in component malfunction or incompatibility with future 
processors.
RS[2:0]#
Input
RS[2:0]# (Response Status) are driven by the response agent (the 
agent responsible for completion of the current transaction), and 
must connect the appropriate pins/lands of all processor FSB 
agents.
SKTOCC#
Output
SKTOCC# (Socket Occupied) will be pulled to ground by the 
processor. System board designers may use this signal to determine 
if the processor is present.
SMI#
Input
SMI# (System Management Interrupt) is asserted asynchronously 
by system logic. On accepting a System Management Interrupt, the 
processor saves the current state and enter System Management 
Mode (SMM). An SMI Acknowledge transaction is issued, and the 
processor begins program execution from the SMM handler.
If SMI# is asserted during the de-assertion of RESET#, the 
processor will tri-state its outputs.
STPCLK#
Input
STPCLK# (Stop Clock), when asserted, causes the processor to 
enter a low power Stop-Grant state. The processor issues a Stop-
Grant Acknowledge transaction, and stops providing internal clock 
signals to all processor core units except the FSB and APIC units. 
The processor continues to snoop bus transactions and service 
interrupts while in Stop-Grant state. When STPCLK# is de-asserted, 
the processor restarts its internal clock to all units and resumes 
execution. The assertion of STPCLK# has no effect on the bus clock; 
STPCLK# is an asynchronous input.
TCK
Input
TCK (Test Clock) provides the clock input for the processor Test Bus 
(also known as the Test Access Port).
TDI
Input
TDI (Test Data In) transfers serial test data into the processor. TDI 
provides the serial input needed for JTAG specification support.
TDO
Output
TDO (Test Data Out) transfers serial test data out of the processor. 
TDO provides the serial output needed for JTAG specification 
support.
TESTHI[13:0]
Input
TESTHI[13:0] must be connected to the processor’s appropriate 
power source (refer to VTT_OUT_LEFT and VTT_OUT_RIGHT signal 
description) through a resistor for proper processor operation. See 
 for more details.
