Revision Guide
The purpose of the AMD-751™ System Controller Revision Guide is to communicate updated product
information on the AMD-751™ system controller to designers of computer systems and software
developers. This guide consists of three major sections:
s Product Marking Identification: This section, which starts on page 2, provides product types,
product revisions, OPNs (Ordering Part Numbers), and product marking information.
s Product Errata: This section, which starts on page 3, provides a detailed description of product
errata, including potential effects on system operation and suggested workarounds. An erratum is
defined as a deviation from the product’s specification. A product errata may cause the behavior of
the AMD-751 system controller to deviate from the published specifications.
s Revision Determination: This section, which starts on page 11, describes the registers that identify
the current revision of the part.
s Technical and Documentation Support: This section, which starts on page 12, provides a listing of
available technical support resources.
Revision Guide Policy
Occasionally AMD identifies deviations from or changes to the specification of the AMD-751 system
controller. These changes are documented in the AMD-751 System Controller Revision Guide as errata.
Descriptions are written to assist system and software designers in using the AMD-751 and corrections
to AMD’s documentation on the AMD-751 system controller are included. This release documents
currently characterized product errata.
