Figure 22. Package Power Control
Turbo Time Parameter
Turbo Time Parameter is a mathematical parameter (units in seconds) that controls
the Intel Turbo Boost Technology algorithm using an average of energy usage. During
a maximum power turbo event of about 1.25 x TDP, the processor could sustain
Power_Limit_2 for up to approximately 1.5 the Turbo Time Parameter. See the
appropriate processor Thermal Mechanical Design Guidelines for more information
(see Related Documents section). If the power value and/or Turbo Time Parameter is
changed during runtime, it may take a period of time (possibly up to approximately 3
to 5 times the Turbo Time Parameter, depending on the magnitude of the change and
other factors) for the algorithm to settle at the new control limits.
