7.2.16 Power and Ground Signals

The 750GX provides the following connections for power and ground:

VDD—The VDD signals provide the supply voltage connection for the processor core.

OVDD—The OVDD signals provide the supply voltage connection for the system interface drivers.

AVDD—The AVDD power signal provides power to the clock generation phase-locked loop. See the PowerPC 750GX Datasheet for information on how to use this signal.

GND and OGND—The GND and OGND signals provide the connection for grounding the 750GX. On the 750GX, there is no electrical distinction between the GND and OGND signals.
