The 750 incorporates a thermal management assist unit (TAU) composed of a thermal sensor, digital-to-ana-
log converter, comparator, control logic, and dedicated special-purpose registers (SPRs). See the PowerPC
740 and PowerPC 750 User’s Manualfor more information on the use of this feature. Specifications for the
thermal sensor portion of the TAU are found in the table below.

Note:
1. The temperature is the junction temperature of the die. The thermal assist unit's (TAU) raw output does not indicate an absolute temperature, but it
must be interpreted by software to derive the absolute junction temperature. For information on how to use and calibrate the TAU, contact
ppcsupp@us.ibm.com. This specification reflects the temperature span supported by the design.
2. The comparator settling time value must be converted into the number of CPU clocks that need to be written into the THRM3 SPR. For parts with
nominal operating frequencies (speed sort) above 266 MHz, the settling time = 20
