Description

INT

10

1

Digital Output

Interrupt active low open-drain output. This output is enabled when
Bit 1 in the Configuration Register is set to 1. The default state is
disabled.

DACOut/NTEST_IN

11

1

Analog
Output/Digital
Input

0V to +1.25V amplitude 8-bit DAC output. When forced high by an
external voltage the NAND Tree Test mode is enabled which
provides board-level connectivity testing. Refer to Section 11.0 on
NAND Tree testing.

RESET

12

1

Digital I/O

Master Reset, 5 mA driver (open-drain), active low output with a
20 ms minimum pulse width. Available when enabled via Bit 4 in
the Configuration register. It acts as an active low power on
RESET input.

GND

13

1

GROUND

Internally connected to all circuitry. The ground reference for all
analog inputs and the DAC output. This pin needs to be
connected to a low noise analog ground plane for optimum
performance of the DAC output.

Vccp2

14

1

Analog Input

Analog input for monitoring −12V or Vccp2. Selectable by
choosing the appropriate external resistor divider values such that
the input to the LM81 is scaled to +2.5V. See

Section 4.0.

+12Vin

15

1

Analog Input

Analog input for monitoring +12V.

+5Vin

16

1

Analog Input

Analog input for monitoring +5V.

+3.3Vin

17

1

Analog Input

Analog input for monitoring +3.3V.

+2.5Vin

18

1

Analog Input

Analog input for monitoring +2.5V.

Vccp1

19

1

Analog Input

Analog input for monitoring Vccp, a processor voltage that is
nominally at +2.5V.

VID4-VID0

20-24

5

Digital Inputs

Supply Voltage readouts from the Pentium/PRO power supplies
that indicate the operating voltage or the processor (e.g. 1.5V to
2.9V). The values are read in the VID/Fan Divisor Register and
the VID4 Register.
