Connect to both processors and ICH3-S.
•
Trace impedance = 50

± 10%.
•
Route traces using 5/10 mil spacing.
•
Try to keep signals on the same layer for the
whole bus, but not at expense of AGTL+ SS
I/O.
•
Maximum agent to agent length is 9". Place
pull-up resistor within 3" of Processor 1.

Trace impedance = 50
Ω
± 10%.
•
Route traces using 5/15 mil spacing.
•
Do not route a stub to Processor 1.
•
Keep signals on the same layer for the entire
length of the bus.
•
Route traces with at least 50% of the trace
width directly over a reference plane.
•
The distance from the pin of one agent to the
pin of the next must be between 3" and 10".
•
Total bus length must not exceed 20".
•
AGTL+ Common Clock Signals.
•
Asserted to indicate the validity of
the transaction address on the

•
Refer to
BCLK[1:0]
•
BCLKs to all processors should be length
matched, and the BCLK to the MCH should
be offset accordingly. See
