I don't really want to derail the thread any further, and this is becoming a little tedious.

Where in intels data sheet what? Relate one voltage range to the other? If that's indeed what you mean, in the section I quoted.

By what reasons do I stand by my statement? Not sure what you mean by that.

I don't have a strong personal will to interpret the data sheet in any way at all. Everyone I have spoken to regarding it or seen referring to it interprets it the same way I do.

Ok, say you are right, and the functional limits intel refer to are not 0.85v - 1.3625v. What are they then?

It's clear that 1.45v is the absolute max correct? They state that in the range outside the functional range but within the absolute maximum will somewhat damage the processor. So the upper limit of the functional range you seem to believe is above the maximum VID of 1.3625v must be below 1.45v. So what is it? Why is there no mention of another voltage between 1.3625v and 1.45v if this is an important design specification?

Instead of attempting to get me to explain what I and many others see as an obvious statement, why don't you explain the reasoning for your opinion? Why is 0.85 - 1.3625v not the functional range they refer to?
