Clock Tree
• Single BCLK input comes
from PCH in <1MHz steps
• Acceptable input to CPU
limited by PIC Express
*
(PCIe) and DMI PLL interface:
100MHz x ±5-7% PEG/DMI @ 5:5
125MHz x ±5-7% PEG/DMI @ 5:4
167MHz x ±5-7% PEG/DMI @ 5:3
• Frequency Relationships
f(GT) = BCLK/2*GT Ratio
f(Core) = BCLK*Core Ratio
f(Ring) = BCLK*Ring Ratio
f(DDR) = BCLK*1.33*DDR Ratio
-Or-
f(DDR) = BCLK*1.00*DDR Ratio
