DMI_RX_DN[3:0]
DMI_RX_DP[3:0]
DMI2 Receive Data Input
DMI_TX_DP[3:0]
DMI_TX_DN[3:0]
DMI2 Transmit Data Output
Table 6-8. Intel QPI Port 0 and 1 Signals
Signal Name Description
QPI{0/1}_CLKRX_DN/DP
Reference Clock Differential Input. These pins provide the PLL
reference clock differential input. The Intel QPI forward clock
frequency is half the Intel QPI data rate.
QPI{0/1}_CLKTX_DN/DP
Reference Clock Differential Output. These pins provide the PLL
reference clock differential input. The Intel QPI forward clock
frequency is half the Intel QPI data rate.
QPI{0/1}_DRX_DN/DP[19:00] Intel QPI Receive data input.
QPI{0/1}_DTX_DN/DP[19:00] Intel QPI Transmit data output.
Table 6-9. Intel QPI Miscellaneous Signals
Signal Name Description
QPI_RBIAS
This input is used to control Intel QPI bias currents. QPI_RBIAS is
required to be connected as if the link is being used even when
Intel QPI is not used.
QPI_RBIAS_SENSE
Provides dedicated bias resistor sensing to minimize the voltage
drop caused by packaging and platform effects.
QPI_RBIAS_SENSE is required to be connected as if the link is
being used even when Intel QPI is not used.
QPI_VREF_CAP
Intel QPI voltage reference used to measure the actual output
voltage and comparing it to the assumed voltage.
