3 Functional Description
3.1 CPU, Memory and Chipset
Supported Processors
Six-core Intel® Xeon Processor L5638
Quad-core Intel® Xeon Processor L5618
The Intel Xeon® processor 5600 series is the first generation
dual-processor server/workstation solution to implement key new
technologies:
X Integrated Memory controller
X Point-to-point link interface based on Intel® QuickPath
Interconnect (Intel® QPI)
The processor is optimized for performance with the power effi-
ciencies of a low-power micro-architecture to enable smaller, qui-
eter systems.
The Intel® Xeon processors L5638 and L5618 are multi-core pro-
cessors based on 32 nm process technology. Processor features
include two Intel® QPI point-to-point links with 5.86GT/s, 12MB of
shared cache, and an integrated memory controller. The proces-
sors support all the existing Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (SSE2),
Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 (SSE3) and Streaming SIMD
Extensions 4 (SEE4). Also supported are: Execute Disable Bit,
Intel® 64 Technology, Enhanced Intel® SpeedStep Technology,
Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT), and Intel®
Hyper-Threading Technology.
The Intel® Xeon® Processor L5638 has a max. TDP of 60 W and
the Intel® Xeon® Processor L5618 has a max. TDP of 40 W. Both
processors have an elevated case temperature specification. The
elevated case temperatures are intended to meet the short-term
thermal profile requirements of NEBS Level 3. These 2-socket
processors are ideal for thermally constrained form factors in
embedded servers, communications and storage markets.
