Intel To Reveal Nehalem Clocking Architecture Details
Intel will present a paper on June 19 discussing the clocking architecture details of its next-generation Nehalem micro-architecture, scheduled for a release in Q4 of this year. According to the company, Nehalem will include configurable clocking, fastlock low-skew PLLs, high reference clock frequencies, analog supply tracking system, adaptive frequency clocking, a low jitter QuickPath interconnect and integrated memory controller clock generation, as well as jitter-attenuating DLLs.
QuickPath will support of 25 GB/s and 32 GB/s, depending on the processor model. Intel said that the processor core, the memory system, and IO feature decoupled frequency and voltages and the chip frequency is capable of adapting to the power supply voltage and droops. Especially noteworthy is that Nehalem can switch into different power states much faster than Core: Intel claims that the PLL lock time has been accelerated by 56% in Nehalem.

Will present a paper January 19th? Of what year? 2009? I'm confused....
June 19th maybe?
January 19 paper release and a Q4 product release? Typo? If the product is what they say it is, AMD better look out.
Please, Please proofread. January or June?
Why would intel release a paper next year if the release of the processors are Q4 of this year.
why would they want all the technical specifications out before it was released... you tell the tech and what not... and the specs... but not how it all works... then its like... here i just did all this work you can copy it
Agreeing with bc...PLEASE proofread.
Above and beyond the dates of the paper being published and the chip released, what do you mean by:
"QuickPath will support of 25 Gb/s and 32 GB/s"?
gigabits or gigabytes...... cmon noobs
It will be Gigabytes.
And June 19th sounds about right.
As for the other stuff, sounds neat. Nice to see that the chip will be able to adapt for voltage droop and such.
I see review after review with stupid typos that mess the whole article up. Come on and fix these mistakes it is not what I would expect from a professional website.
Wouldn't it be nice if there was an update with link to the actual paper?
