Further Information

The 16-way set associative, single-ported 16-MB cache for the Dual-Core Intel Xeon Processor 7100 Series uses a 0.624 μm2 cell in a 65-nm 8-metal technology. Low power techniques are implemented in the L3 cache to minimize both leakage and dynamic power. Sleep transistors are used in the SRAM array and peripherals, reducing the cache leakage by more than 2X. Only 0.8% of the cache is powered up for a cache access. Dynamic cache line disable (Intel Cache Safe Technology) with a history buffer protects the cache from latent defects and infant mortality failures.
