AMD Athlon™ XP Processor Model 8 Data Sheet

Preliminary Information

See “Frequency Identification (FID[3:0])” on page 33 for the
DC characteristics for FID[3:0].

FSB_Sense[1:0] Pins

FSB_Sense[1:0] pins are either open circuit (logic level of 1) or
are pulled to ground (logic level of 0) on the processor package
with a 1 k

Ω resistor. In conjunction with a circuit on the

motherboard, these pins may be used to automatically detect
the front-side bus (FSB) setting of this processor. Proper
detection of the FSB setting requires the implementation of a
pull-up resistor on the motherboard. Refer to the AMD Athlon™
Processor-Based Motherboard Design Guide
, order# 24363 and the
technical note FSB_Sense Auto Detection Circuitry for Desktop
Processors
, order# TN26673 for more information.

Table 27 is the truth table to determine the FSB of desktop
processors.

The FSB_Sense[1:0] pins are 3.3-V tolerant.

FLUSH# Pin

FLUSH# must be tied to V

CC_CORE

with a pullup resistor. If a

debug connector is implemented, FLUSH# is routed to the
debug connector.

IGNNE# Pin

IGNNE# is an input from the system that tells the processor to
ignore numeric errors.

INIT# Pin

INIT# is an input from the system that resets the integer
registers without affecting the floating-point registers or the
internal caches. Execution starts at 0_FFFF_FFF0h.

INTR Pin

INTR is an input from the system that causes the processor to
start an interrupt acknowledge transaction that fetches the
8-bit interrupt vector and starts execution at that location.

JTAG Pins

TCK, TMS, TDI, TRST#, and TDO are the JTAG interface.
Connect these pins directly to the motherboard debug
connector. Pull TDI, TCK, TMS, and TRST# up to V

CC_CORE

with

pullup resistors.
