Power Dissipation
Table 59 and Table 60 contain the application power dissipation
of the low-power and standard-power AMD-K6-2E+ processor
during normal and reduced power states. Table 61 on page 290
shows the supported voltages and operating frequencies for
low-power versions of AMD-K6-2E+ processors enabled with
AMD PowerNow! technology.

Notes:
1.
2. This specification applies to components using a CLK frequency of 66 MHz.
3. The active application power measurements were taken by running a suite of embedded benchmarks covering four major
embedded market segments: automotive, office automation, networking, and telecommunications.
4. AMD PowerNow! technology Power Saving Mode represents averaged values measured while running the processor in the lowest
settings supported by AMD PowerNow! technology.
5. The maximum power dissipated in the normal clock control state must be taken into account when designing a solution for thermal
dissipation for the AMD-K6-2E+ processor.
6. Maximum power is determined for the worst-case instruction sequence or function for the listed clock control states with
V

= Nominal V
CC2
as listed in Table 55 on page 286 and V
CC3
= 3.3 V.
7.
The CLK signal and the internal PLL are still running, but most internal clocking has stopped.
8. The CLK signal, the internal PLL, and all internal clocking has stopped.
9. The lowest operating V
CC
is 1.4 V.
This specification applies to components using a CLK frequency of 100 MHz.
