Notes:
1. See “Absolute Maximum Ratings” on page 59 for filter recommendations.
2. The maximum current values listed above are not guaranteed to be the highest obtainable. These values are dependent on many factors
including the type of applications running, clock rates, use of internal functional capabilities, external interface usage, case temperature,
and the power supply voltages. Your specific application can produce significantly different results. V
DD
current and power are primarily
dependent on the applications running and the use of internal chip functions (DMA, PCI, Ethernet, and so on). OV
DD
current and power
are primarily dependent on the capacitive loading, frequency, and utilization of the external buses.
3. Typical current is estimated at 667MHz with V
DD
= +1.5V, OV
DD
= +3.3V, SV
DD
= +2.5V, and
T
C
= +85°C, while running Linux and a test
application that exercises each core with representative traffic.
4. Maximum current is estimated at 667MHz with V
DD
= +1.6V, OV
DD
= +3.6V, SV
DD
= +2.7V,
T
C
= +85°C, and a best-case process (which
drives worst-case power), while running Linux and a test application that exercises each core with representative traffic.

4. The preceding equations assume that the chip is mounted on a board with at least one signal and two power planes.
5. Values in the table were achieved with a JEDEC standard board: 114.5mm x 101.6mm x 1.6mm, 4 layers.
6. Values for an attached heat sink were achieved with a 35mm x 35mm x 15mm unit (see Thermal Management below), attached with a
0.1mm thickness of adhesive having a thermal conductivity of 1.3W/mK.
