3. Functional Architecture
The Intel
®
Server Board S5500WB is a purpose build, power-optimized server used in a 1U
rack. Memory and processor socket placement is made to minimize the amount of fan power
required to cool these components. Voltage Regulators (VRDs) are optimized for a particular
range of memory and CPU power that suits the target Internet Portal Datacenter (IPDC)
segment of the market. The VRDs are also designed to be highly power-efficient, balancing the
needs of being small in size and also cost-effective. There are two SKUs: a 12-V only SKU and
an SSI-compliant SKU.
