Notes: No Specifications for Min/Max PL1/PL2 values. Hardware default of PL1 Tau=1s, By including the benefits available from power and thermal management features the recommended is to use PL1 Tau=28s. PL2- SoC opportunistic higher Average Power – Reactive, Limited Duration controlled by Tau_PL1 setting. PL1 Tau - PL1 average power is controlled via PID algorithm with this Tau, The larger the Tau, the longer the PL2 duration. System cooling solution and designs found to not being able to support the Performance Tau PL1, adjust the TauPL1 to cooling capability. A recommendation to set all power delivery especially PL2 and PL1 based on platform power and thermal capability via BIOS.

Notes: The package C-state power is the worst case power in the system configured as follows: Memory configured for DDR4 and populated with two DIMMs per channel. DMI and PCIe links are at L1 Specification at DTS = 50 °C and minimum voltage loadline. Specification at DTS = 35 °C and minimum voltage loadline. These DTS values in Notes 2 - 3 are based on the TCC Activation MSR having a value of 100, Refer Thermal Management Features. These values are specified at VCC_MAX and VNOM for all other voltage rails for all processor frequencies. Systems should be designed to ensure the processor is not to be subjected to any static VCC and ICC combination wherein VCCP exceeds VCCP_MAX at specified ICCP. Refer the loadline specifications. Thermal Processor Base Power (a.k.a TDP) should be used for processor thermal solution design targets. Processor Base Power is not the maximum power that the processor can dissipate. Processor Base Power (a.k.a TDP) is measured at DTS = -1. Processor Base Power(a.k.a TDP) is achieved with the Memory configured for DDR Platform Compatibility Guide (PCG) (previously known as FMB) provides a design target for meeting all planned processor frequency requirements. Not 100% tested. Specified by design characterization.

Notes: Digital Thermal Sensor (DTS) based fan speed control is recommended to achieve optimal thermal performance. Intel recommends full cooling capability at approximately the DTS value of -1, to minimize TCC activation risk. For example, if TCONTROL = 20 ºC, Fan acceleration operation will start at 80 ºC (100 ºC - 20 ºC).
