2.2.9 
Operating System Implications of Low-power States 
There are a number of architectural features of the mobile Pentium III processor that do not 
function in the Quick Start or Sleep state as they do in the Stop Grant state. The time-stamp 
counter and the performance monitor counters are not guaranteed to count in the Quick Start or 
Sleep states. The local APIC timer and performance monitor counter interrupts should be disabled 
before entering the Deep Sleep state or the resulting behavior will be unpredictable. 
2.2.10 
Intel SpeedStep Technology 
Some mobile Pentium III processors will be offered with Intel SpeedStep technology. The Intel 
SpeedStep technology allows the processor switch between two core frequencies without having 
to reset the processor or change the system bus frequency. The processor has two bus ratios 
programmed into it instead of one and the GHI# signal controls which one is used. After reset, the 
processor will start in the lower of its two core frequencies, the “Battery Optimized” mode. An 
operating mode transition to the high core frequency can be made by putting the processor into the 
Deep Sleep state, raising the core voltage, setting GHI# low, and returning to the Normal state. 
This puts the processor into the “Maximum performance” mode. A transitioning back to the low-
core frequency can be made by reversing these steps.  
2.3 GTL+ 
Signals 
The mobile Pentium III processor system bus signals use a variation of the low-voltage swing GTL 
signaling technology. The mobile Pentium III processor system bus specification is similar to the 
Pentium II processor system bus specification, which is a version of GTL with enhanced noise 
margins and less ringing.  
The GTL+ system bus depends on incident wave switching and uses flight time for timing 
calculations of the GTL+ signals, as opposed to capacitive derating. Analog signal simulation of 
the system bus including trace lengths is highly recommended. Contact your field sales 
representative to receive the IBIS models for the mobile Pentium III processor.   
The GTL+ system bus of the Pentium II processor was designed to support high-speed data 
transfers with multiple loads on a long bus that behaves like a transmission line. However, in 
mobile systems the system bus only has two loads (the processor and the chipset) and the bus 
traces are short. It is possible to change the layout and termination of the system bus to take 
advantage of the mobile environment using the same GTL+ I/O buffers. In mobile systems the 
GTL+ system bus is terminated at one end only. This termination is provided on the processor 
core (except for the RESET# signal). Refer to the Mobile Pentium
®
 III Processor GTL+ System 
Bus Layout Guideline for details on laying out the GTL+ system bus.

Mobile Pentium III Processor CPUID 
The CPUID instruction does not distinguish between the Pentium 
III
 processor and the mobile 
Pentium 
III
 processor. After a power-on RESET or when the CPUID version information is 
loaded, the EAX register contains the values shown in  
Table 4. After the L2 cache is initialized, the CPUID cache/TLB descriptors will be the values 
shown in Table 5.
