AMD Athlon™ XP Processor Model 10 Data Sheet

Preliminary Information

CLKIN, RSTCLK
(SYSCLK) Pins

Connect CLKIN with RSTCLK and name it SYSCLK. Connect
CLKIN# with RSTCLK# and name it SYSCLK#. Length match
the clocks from the clock generator to the Northbridge and
processor.

See “SYSCLK and SYSCLK#” on page 77 for more information.

CONNECT Pin

CONNECT is an input from the system used for power
management and clock-forward initialization at reset.

COREFB and
COREFB# Pins

COREFB and COREFB# are outputs to the system that provide
processor core voltage feedback to the system.

CPU_PRESENCE# Pin

CPU_PRESENCE# is connected to VSS on the processor
package. If pulled-up on the motherboard, CPU_PRESENCE#
may be used to detect the presence or absence of a processor in
the Socket A-style socket.

DBRDY and DBREQ#
Pins

DBRDY and DBREQ# are routed to the debug connector.
DBREQ# is tied to V

CC_CORE

with a pullup resistor.

FERR Pin

FERR is an output to the system that is asserted for any
unmasked numerical exception independent of the NE bit in
CR0. FERR is a push-pull active High signal that must be
inverted and level shifted to an active Low signal. For more
information about FERR and FERR#, see the “Required
Circuits” chapter of the AMD Athlon™ Processor-Based
Motherboard Design Guide
, order# 24363.
