Datasheet Volume One
Overview
• Home snoop based coherency
•3-bit Node ID
• 46-bit physical addressing support
• No Intel QuickPath Interconnect bifurcation support
• Differential signaling
• Forwarded clocking
• Up to 8.0 GT/s data rate (up to 16 GB/s direction peak bandwidth per port)

— Slow boot speed initialization at 50 MT/s
• Common reference clocking (same clock generator for both sender and receiver)
• Intel® Interconnect Built-In-Self-Test (Intel® IBIST) for high-speed testability
• Polarity and Lane reversal (Rx side only)
1.2.5 Platform Environment Control Interface (PECI)
The PECI is a one-wire interface that provides a communication channel between a
PECI client (the processor) and a PECI master (the PCH).
• Supports operation at up to 2 Mbps data transfers
• Link layer improvements to support additional services and higher efficiency over
PECI 2.0 generation
• Services include CPU thermal and estimated power information, control functions
for power limiting, P-state and T-state control, and access for Machine Check
Architecture registers and PCI configuration space (both within the processor
package and downstream devices)
• PECI address determined by SOCKET_ID configuration
• Single domain (Domain 0) is supported
