Platform Environment Control Interface (PECI)
The Platform Environment Control Interface (PECI) uses a single wire for self-clocking 
and data transfer. The bus requires no additional control lines. PECI also includes 
variable data transfer rate established with every message. In this way, it is highly 
flexible even though underlying logic is simple.
The PECI bus offers:
• A wide speed range from 2 Kbps to 2 Mbps
• CRC check byte used to efficiently and automatically confirm accurate data delivery
• Synchronization at the beginning of every message minimizes device timing 
accuracy requirements
Note:
The PECI commands described in this document apply primarily to the processor E7 v2 
product family.
