Thermal Trip Signal (SOCHOT#)

The processor provides SOCHOT# signal to indicate that it has exceeded some temperature limit. The limit is set by BIOS. The temperature limit is compared to the present temperature. If the present temperature is greater than the programmed value then the pin is asserted.

SOCHOT# is an O/D output and requires a Pull-up on the motherboard.

The processor evaluates the temperature from the thermal sensor against the programmed temperature limit every 1 second.
