our current system makes use of the Xeon D-1559 CPUs which have a FIVR (fully integrated voltage regulator). we have had issues with long boot delay due to waiting for the de-assertion of the FIVR FAULT. I can't find any information on if the D-1700 or D-2700 series CPUs also make use of this hardware. The assumption is yes since it aids in reducing power consumption and is typically the goal of the D series CPUs.
if anyone has insight on this or a pointer to some datasheet or block diagram to help confirm the presence or lack thereof FIVR hardware
Additionally, you may contact your Intel account representative, if you do not have a rep, you may contact Intel authorized distributor to check on this enquiry.
that document didn't answer my question. I also don't have a rep or contact for an authorized distributor. the people I have asked that design the cards with this part on it do not know the answer, even though they probably should, but are worried that sharing that info breaches their NDA with intel, even though it seems like a piece of information that should just be available.
Since we have not seen an update, we will be closing this forum case from our end. If you need any additional information, please submit a new question as this thread will no longer be monitored.
