AMD Athlon™ Processor
Voltage Regulation Design
Application Note

Document # 22651.pdf - on the AMD Athlon Web Site.


"Voltage and current specifications are provided in the
AMD Athlon™ Processor Data Sheet, order# 21016. However,
additional information is required to design an appropriate
power supply for the AMD Athlon processor. Table 1 shows the
electrical requirements of the processor not included in the
data sheet along with power supply design targets. These
projected values allow designers to support future processors
on the same motherboard, thereby allowing upgradeability.

"This large range allows motherboard designers to
prepare for the next generation of processors from AMD."

Our great garage thinker! What makes you think
that AMD "generation" of Athlons is limited to
current 650MHz only? Your power of deduction is
truly amazing for a brain of less than one ounce!
