Sun Microsystems SUN BLADE 150 - Openboot PROM Jumpers CPU Speed Selection

C-14 Sun Blade 150 Service Manual • June 2002
TABLE C-3 lists all the clocks present on the system. Each of the clocks listed is
generated by the clock generator or a dedicated crystal.
C.7.2 OpenBoot PROM Jumpers CPU Speed Selection
When the system is powered on, the CPU clock speed is determined by the default
hardware settings (200MHz) of the MC12429. The OpenBoot PROM firmware then
needs to know the exact CPU speed so that the OpenBoot PROM can reprogram the
MC12429 accordingly through the OpenBoot PROM serial programming interface.
The CPU speeds and jumper settings are provided in the CPU release notes.
FIGURE C-9 shows the jumper settings for the 550 MHz and 650 MHz CPUs.
