Datasheet Volume One of Two
• CPU Microcode Update Revision: Reflects the revision number for the microcode
update and power control unit firmware updates on the processor sample. The
revision data is a unique 32-bit identifier that reflects a combination of specific
versions of the processor microcode and PCU control firmware.
• Machine Check Status: Returns error information as logged by the MCA Error
Source Log register. See Figure 2-26 for details. The power control unit will assert
the relevant bit when the error condition represented by the bit occurs. For
example, bit 29 will be set if the package asserted MCERR, bit 30 is set if the
package asserted IERR and bit 31 is set if the package asserted CAT_ERR_N. The
CAT_ERR_N may be used to signal the occurrence of a MCERR or IERR.
2.5.2.6.13 Package Power SKU Unit Read
This feature enables the PECI host to read the units of time, energy and power used in
the processor and DRAM power control registers for calculating power and timing
parameters. In Figure 2-27, the default value of the power unit field [3:0] is 0011b,
energy unit [12:8] is 10000b and the time unit [19:16] is 1010b. Actual unit values are
calculated as shown in Table 2-9.
