2.5.3 VCC Overshoot Specification
The Pentium D processor can tolerate short transient overshoot events where VCC exceeds the VID
voltage when transitioning from a high-to-low current load condition. This overshoot cannot
exceed VID + VOS_MAX (VOS_MAX is the maximum allowable overshoot voltage). The time
duration of the overshoot event must not exceed TOS_MAX (TOS_MAX is the maximum allowable
time duration above VID). These specifications apply to the processor die voltage as measured
across the VCC_SENSE and VSS_SENSE lands.
NOTES:
1. VOS is measured overshoot voltage.
2. TOS is measured time duration above VID.
