Hi!

Are these SoCs x86-based?

Yes, these are ARM SoCs. Please see Andrew's answer as well.

Understood, thanks.

English? "This value will determine when this controller"?


Could I change it like below?:

"This value will determine in which time frame this controller
samples PECI
signal for data read back"

I guess... I'm not native speaker, I guess this could be improved
some
more.


I agree this wording is still confusing.

The problem is that the key subject, the time of the sampling, is in the descriptive clause "in which time frame".

"This value will determine the time frame in which the controller will sample"

or perhaps phrase it as saving a specific sample from the over-clock, or a phase of the clock.


Yes, that looks more better. I'll change the wording as you suggested. Thanks a lot!

Jae

Best regards,
