Introduction The Intel® Core™ i7 processor family for LGA2011 socket are the next generation of 64-bit, multi-core desktop processors built on 22-nanometer process technology. Based on the low-power/high-performance Intel® Core™ i7 processor micro-architecture, the processor is designed for a two-chip platform instead of to the traditional three-chip platforms (processor, Memory Controller Hub, and Platform Controller Hub). The twochip platform consists of a processor and the Platform Controller Hub (PCH) enabling higher performance, easier validation, and improved x-y footprint. Refer to...

Processor Platform Block Diagram Example Processor Feature Details • Up to 6 execution cores • Each core supports two threads (Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology), up to 12 threads per socket • 32KB instruction and 32-KB data first-level cache (L1) for each core • 256KB shared instruction/data mid-level (L2) cache for each core • Up to 15MB last level cache (LLC): up to 2.5MB per core instruction/data last level cache (LLC), shared among all cores

PCI Express* • The PCI Express* port(s) are fully-compliant with the PCI Express* Base Specification, Revision 3.0 (PCIe 3.0) • Support for PCI Express* 3.0 (8.0 GT/s), 2.0 (5.0 GT/s), and 1.0 (2.5 GT/s) • Up to 40 lanes of PCI Express* interconnect for general purpose PCI Express* devices at PCIe* 3.0 speeds that are configurable for up to 10 independent ports • 4 lanes of PCI Express* at PCIe* 2.0 speeds when not using DMI2 port (Port 0), also can be downgraded to x2 or x1 • Negotiating down to narrower widths is supported, see Figure 1-2: — x16 port (Port 2 and Port 3) may negotiate down...

PCI Express* Lane Partitioning and Direct Media Interface Gen 2 (DMI2) Port 0 DMI / PCIe Direct Media Interface Gen 2 (DMI2) • Serves as the chip-to-chip interface to the PCH • The DMI2 port supports x4 link width and only operates in a x4 mode when in DMI2 • Operates at PCI Express* 1.0 or 2.0 speeds • Transparent to software • Processor and peer-to-peer writes and reads with 64-bit address support • APIC and Message Signaled Interrupt (MSI) support. Will send Intel-defined “End of Interrupt” broadcast message when initiated by the processor. • System Management Interrupt (SMI), SCI, and...

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). Refer to the Processor Thermal Mechanical Specifications and Design Guide for additional details on PECI services available in the processor (Refer to the Related Documents section). • 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 processor thermal and estimated power information,...

Package Summary The processor socket type is noted as LGA2011. The processor package is a 52.5 x 45 mm FC-LGA package (LGA2011). Refer to the Processor Thermal Mechanical Specification and Design Guide (see Related Documents section) for the package mechanical specifications.

Terminology (Sheet 2 of 3) Term Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT) for Directed I/O. Intel VT-d is a hardware assist, under system software (Virtual Machine Manager or operating system) control, for enabling I/O device virtualization. Intel VT-d also brings robust security by providing protection from errant DMAs by using DMA remapping, a key feature of Intel VT-d. Any timing variation of a transition edge or edges from the defined Unit Interval (UI).
