Board and System Implementation of

Intel

To implement the board it must be configured as shown in Figure 23 and listed in the

following bullets.

• ME system (S0-S1) with Controller Link connected and powered

• DRAM with Channel A DIMM 0 installed and 2 MB reserved for Intel QST FW

execution

• SPI Flash with sufficient space for the Intel QST Firmware

• SST-based thermal sensors to provide board thermal data for Intel QST algorithms

• Intel QST firmware
