2.3Push-Pull (PP) Drivers

The AMD Athlon XP processor model 8 supports push-pull (PP) drivers. The system logic configures the processor with the configuration parameter called SysPushPull (1=PP). The impedance of the PP drivers is set to match the impedance of the motherboard by two external resistors connected to the ZN and ZP pins.

See “ZN and ZP Pins” on page 80 for more information.

2.4AMD Athlon™ System Bus Signals

The AMD Athlon system bus is a clock-forwarded, point-to- point interface with the following three point-to-point channels:

A 13-bit unidirectional output address/command channel

A 13-bit unidirectional input address/command channel

A 72-bit bidirectional data channel

For more information, see Chapter 8, “Electrical Data” on page 31 and the AMD Athlon™ System Bus Specification, order# 21902.
