Bit Description
15:9 Reserved
8:0 TS Reading (TSR) — RO. The die temperature with resolution of 1/2 degree C and an offset of -
50C. Thus a reading of 0x121 is 94.5C.
Bit Description
7 Policy Lock-Down Bit — R/W. When written to 1, this bit prevents any more writes to the register
(offset 04h) and to CTT (offset 10h)
6:1 Reserved
0 Catastrophic Power-Down Enable — R/W. When set to 1, the power management logic (PMC)
transitions to the S5 state when a catastrophic temperature is detected by the sensor. The
transition to the S5 state must be unconditional (like the Power Button Override Function). The
thermal sensor and response logic is in the core/main power well; therefore, detection of a
catastrophic temperature is limited to times when this well is powered and out of reset.
