Electrical Specifications
Notes:
1. Refer to Chapter 6 for signal description details.
2. DDR{0/1/2/3} refers to DDR3 Channel 0, DDR3 Channel 1, DDR3 Channel 2 and DDR3 Channel 3.
Notes:
1. Refer to Table 7-17 for details on the RON (Buffer on Resistance) value for this signal.
7.3 Power-On Configuration (POC) Options

Several configuration options can be configured by hardware. The processor samples

its hardware configuration at reset, on the active-to-inactive transition of RESET_N, or

upon assertion of PWRGOOD (inactive-to-active transition). For specifics on these

options, refer to Table 7-7.

The sampled information configures the processor for subsequent operation. These

configuration options cannot be changed, except by another reset transition of the

latching signal (RESET_N or PWRGOOD).

Notes:
1. Output tri-state option enables Fault Resilient Booting (FRB). The RESET_N signal is used to latch
PROCHOT_N for enabling FRB mode.
2. BIST_ENABLE is sampled at RESET_N de-assertion (on the falling edge).
3. This signal is sampled after PWRGOOD assertion.
