Intel 6.2Measured Power Consumption, STL2 Server Board TPS, Devices, 3.3V, +12V, Total Wattage

Power Consumption STL2 Server Board TPS

The total power calculation assumes a system configuration containing dual Pentium® III 1 GHz processors with the VRM for both processors supplied by the 5V source, four 1 GHz DIMMs, all PCI slots containing 10W cards, two USB devices, keyboard & mouse, three chassis fans, and two processor fan heat sinks.

6.2Measured Power Consumption

A STL2 FAB 2 server board was configured with dual 866 MHz processors, both supplied by the 5V voltage regulation modules (VRMs), and four 1GB PC133 SDRAM DIMMs (Infineon part number HYS72V128320GR).

The system was configured with Microsoft Windows NT 4.0. Test software utilized during the power consumption measurement consisted of the Hipower test suite, used to simulate medium processor activity, and the WinMTA memory stress test suite, used to simulate high memory activity.

The STL2 server board measured power consumption including the memory and processor power is listed in the following table.
