Specification Update

Preface
6 Specification Update
Nomenclature
Errata are design defects or errors. Errata may cause the Intel
®
Celeron
®
processor
400 series’s behavior to deviate from published specifications. Hardware and software
designed to be used with any given stepping must assume that all errata documented
for that stepping are present on all devices.
QDF Number – A several digit code used to distinguish between engineering
samples. These processors are used for qualification and early design validation. The
functionality of these parts can range from mechanical only to fully functional. The
NDA specification update has a processor identification information table that lists
these QDF numbers and the corresponding product sample details.
Specification Changes are modifications to the current published specifications.
These changes will be incorporated in the next release of the specifications.
Specification Clarifications describe a specification in greater detail or further
highlight a specification’s impact to a complex design situation. These clarifications
will be incorporated in the next release of the specifications.
Documentation Changes include typos, errors, or omissions from the current
published specifications. These changes will be incorporated in the next release of the
specifications.
Note: Errata remain in the specification update throughout the product’s lifecycle, or until a
particular stepping is no longer commercially available. Under these circumstances,
errata removed from the specification update are archived and available upon request.
Specification changes, specification clarifications and documentation changes are
removed from the specification update when the appropriate changes are made to the
appropriate product specification or user documentation (datasheets, manuals, etc.).
