7.3 Interface Trace Length Compensation
In this section, detailed information is given about the internal component package trace lengths to
enable trace length compensation. Trace length compensation is required for platform design.
These lengths must be considered when matching trace lengths as described in the Intel
®
Xeon™
Processor and Intel
®
E7505 Chipset Platform Design Guide. Note that these lengths represent the
actual lengths from pad to ball.
Different length matching requirements must be followed for each platform interface. These
guidelines are specified in the corresponding sections of the platform design guide. Use of the
Length Matching Spreadsheet is recommended to provide lengths for major interfaces. Contact
your Intel representative for information about the Length Matching Spreadsheet tool.
