4.3.1 Thermal Trip – THRMTRIP
The thermal trip function is multiplexed on the GEVENT2 pin. The THRMTRIP status cannot be used to
generate SCI or SMI#.

4.3.2 Temperature Alert – TALERT
The temperature alert function is multiplexed on the GPIO64 pin. It can be programmed to generate SMI#,
SCI, or IRQ13 through GPE. It can also be programmed to generate SMI# without using GPE.
