Throttle power question

I have noticed that most legacy aircraft when at 100 throttle go to 117 n1. Is there a particular reason for this?

Thanks. I know what N1 is, but it seems that on the newer aircraft the N1 only goes to around 102, with even the CL35 max power being 97.

That would be down to either that is the Max N1 of the aircraft or better development of aircraft

N1 varies on aircraft engine type and how its typically utilized. When I was providing development data, this sheet was shared with developers so that we may have an accurate representation of the N1 value when displayed in app.
