11 Clocking

For an Intel 815 chipset platform, there are two clock specifications. One is for a 2-DIMM
solution, and the other is for a 3-DIMM solution. In both specifications only single-ended clocking
is supported. Intel 815 chipset platforms using a future 0.13 micron socket 370 processors cannot
implement differential clocking.

The following bullets list the features of the Intel CK-815 clock generator in a 2-DIMM solution:

Nine copies of 100 MHz SDRAM clocks (3.3V) [SDRAM0…7, DClk]

Seven copies of PCI clock (33 MHz ) (3.3V)

Two copies of APIC clock at 33 MHz, synchronous to processor clock (2.5V)

One copy of 48 MHz USB clock (3.3V) (non-SSC) (type 3 buffer)

One copy of 48 MHz DOT clock (3.3V) (non-SSC) (see DOT details)

Three copies of 3V, 66 MHz clock (3.3V)

One copy of REF clock at 14.31818 MHz (3.3V)
