Functional Architecture

3.Functional Architecture

This chapter provides a high-level description of the functionality distributed between the architectural blocks of the SE7501WV2 server board.

3.1Processor and Memory Subsystem

The E7501 chipset provides a 36-bit address, 64-bit data processor host bus interface, operating at 400MHz and 533Mz in the AGTL+ signaling environment. The MCH component of the chipset provides an integrated memory controller, an 8-bit Hub Interface, and three 16-bit Hub Interfaces.

The Hub Interface provides the interface to two 64-bit, 133-MHz, Rev 1.0 compliant PCI-X buses via the P64H2. The SE7501WV2 server board directly supports up to 12 GB of ECC memory, using six DDR266 compliant registered ECC DIMMs. (Will support DDR200 modules when 400MHz processors are installed.) The ECC implementation in the MCH can detect and correct single-bit errors, detect multiple-bit errors, and support the Intel® Single Device Data Correction features.

3.1.1Processor Support

The SE7501WV2 server board supports one or two Intel® Xeon™ processors in the Socket 604 INT3/FCPGA package. When two processors are installed, all processors must be of identical revision, core voltage, and bus/core speed. When only one processor is installed, it should be in the socket labeled CPU-1 and the other socket must be empty. The support circuitry on the server board consists of the following:

•Dual Socket 604 INT3/FCPGA CPU sockets supporting 533 MHz (will support 400 MHz processors running at 400 Mhz speed.)

•Processor host bus AGTL+ support circuitry
