CPU Use condition definition

[Dieter_Mathis]

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen!

I am reviewing the Product Release Qualification Report for the Intel Pentium Silver Processor N5030. On page 9 chapter 4.2 Use Condition Definition are the active and Inactive Operation Time mentioned.

My question is to the Inactive Operation:

The definiton for inactive operation is - time spent in idle and/or standby states.

Does this mean it doesn't matter in which of the 7 idles states the CPU is - the time is to account to the inactive time?

Thanks you to make this more clear for me.

Hello Dieter_Mathis,

Thank you so much for patiently waiting on our response.

Upon further checking in the report, chapter 4.2, in the notes section, here's what is stated:

Inactive operation equates to time spent in idle and/or standby states.

Which means that any status in idle and/or standby should be considered an inactive operation.

Please let us know if you have any questions.
