EKEY

Socket Electronic Key

Used to distinguish between packages with different pins assignment. Connect this pin to the Enable signal of the first VR in sequence. Or as appropriate, to shut down complete power to SOC/platform when a wrong package is being used.

NA NA SE S-Processor Line
SKTOCC#

Socket Occupied: Pulled down directly (0 Ohms) on the processor package to the ground. There is no connection to the processor silicon for this signal. System board designers may use this signal to determine if the processor is present.

CFG[17:0]

Configuration Signals: The CFG signals have a default value of '1' if not terminated on the board.

Intel recommends placing test points on the board for CFG pins.

  • CFG[1:0]: Reserved configuration lane.
  • CFG[2]: S-Processor Line

    PCI Express* Static x16 Lanes Numbering Reversal

  • CFG[3]: Reserved configuration lane.
  • CFG[4]: Reserved
  • CFG[5] S-Processor Line PCI Express* Bifurcation
    • 0 = 2 x8 PCI Express*
    • 1 = 1 x16 PCI Express* (default)
  • CFG[6]: Reserved configuration lanes.
  • CFG[7]: Reserved configuration lanes.
  • CFG[13:8]: Reserved configuration lanes.
  • CFG[14]: S-Processor Line PEG60 Lane Reversal:
    • 1 - (Default) Normal
    • 0 - Reversed
  • CFG[17:15]: S-Processor Line Reserved configuration lanes.
