Introduction—Processor

Term	Description
MLC	Mid-Level Cache
MSI	Message Signaled Interrupt
MSL	Moisture Sensitive Labeling
MSR	Model Specific Registers
	Non-Critical to Function. NCTF locations are typically redundant ground or non-critical
NCTF	reserved, so the loss of the solder joint continuity at end of life conditions will not
	affect the overall product functionality.
ODT	On-Die Termination
OLTM	Open Loop Thermal Management
PCG	Platform Compatibility Guide (PCG) (previously known as FMB) provides a design
	target for meeting all planned processor frequency requirements.
	Platform Controller Hub. The chipset with centralized platform capabilities including
PCH	the main I/O interfaces along with display connectivity, audio features, power
	management, manageability, security, and storage features.
	The Platform Environment Control Interface (PECI) is a one-wire interface that
PECI	provides a communication channel between Intel processor and chipset components
	to external monitoring devices.
	Case-to-ambient thermal characterization parameter (psi). A measure of thermal
Ψ ca	solution performance using total package power. Defined as (TCASE - TLA ) / Total
	Package Power. The heat source should always be specified for Y measurements.
	PCI Express* Graphics. External Graphics using PCI Express* Architecture. It is a
PEG	high-speed serial interface where configuration is software compatible with the
	existing PCI specifications.
PL1, PL2	Power Limit 1 and Power Limit 2
PPD	Pre-charge Power-down
Processor	The 64-bit multi-core component (package)
	The term “processor core” refers to Si die itself, which can contain multiple execution
Processor Core	cores. Each execution core has an instruction cache, data cache, and 256-KB L2
	cache. All execution cores share the L3 cache.
Processor Graphics	Intel Processor Graphics
Rank	A unit of DRAM corresponding to four to eight devices in parallel, ignoring ECC. These
	devices are usually, but not always, mounted on a single side of a SO-DIMM.
SCI	System Control Interrupt. SCI is used in the ACPI protocol.
SF	Strips and Fans
SMM	System Management Mode
SMX	Safer Mode Extensions
	A non-operational state. The processor may be installed in a platform, in a tray, or
	loose. Processors may be sealed in packaging or exposed to free air. Under these
	conditions, processor landings should not be connected to any supply voltages, have
Storage Conditions	any I/Os biased, or receive any clocks. Upon exposure to “free air” (that is, unsealed
	packaging or a device removed from packaging material), the processor must be
	handled in accordance with moisture sensitivity labeling (MSL) as indicated on the
	packaging material.
SVID	Serial Voltage Identification
TAC	Thermal Averaging Constant
