A motherboard can sustain mechanical shock anytime the system is moved, shipped or dropped. Boards that are not properly designed to withstand these shocks can experience a catastrophic failure of the BGA surface-mount component(s) or reduced lifetime due to solder-joint damage from the mechanical shock event.
The Motherboard Mechanical Layout Tool (MBMLT) is a concept tool designed to provide predicted relative mechanical shock risk information regarding placement of the chipset/PCH for a particular motherboard configuration. Use this tool to find an optimum chipset location from a mechanical shock standpoint.

Intel provides an EFI-standard based Intel® Boot Loader Development Kit (Intel® BLDK) that allows creation of customized and optimized initialization firmware solutions for embedded Intel® processor-based platforms.
This white paper provides step-by-step instructions on how to modify the Intel® BLDK code base to support network booting (PXE boot) for Intel® Atom™ Processor E6xx Series with Intel® Platform Controller Hub EG20T reference board codenamed Crown Bay.
- Digital Signage Developers wanting to implement Intel® vPro™ Technology into their Open Pluggable Specification (OPS) compliant display panels can now view a white paper that outlines designing the power delivery system for these panels. One key usage of Intel® vPro technology is out-of-band remote manageability. This feature enables a remote user to perform a power operation (i.e. Power On/Off) on OPS based digital signage regardless of its power state from a remote location among other things. There is an implication on the power delivery design on both the OPS module and the display panel.
- The ANSI T10 standard provides a way to check the integrity of data read and written from the host bus adapter to the disk and back through the Storage Area Network (SAN) fabric. This check is implemented through the data integrity field (DIF) defined in the T10 standard. Part of the DIF definition is the 8-byte footer which contains the CRC. Now available is an optimized function to compute a 16-bit CRC, as defined in the T10 DIF Standard using PCLMULQDQ instruction.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Why does the Intel® Embedded website include some Intel embedded platforms and not others?
|
This site supports leading embedded platforms based on Intel's latest technology. These platforms are selected on the basis of performance/watt, low power, reduced thermals and system-on-a-chip (SOC) integration. Selected platforms include validated combinations of processors and chipsets that are supported by available application reference designs, software and development tools (including loaner tools) and training.
|
Will you add new platforms – and if so, when?
|
New platforms will be added as new Intel embedded processors and chipsets are launched, and as new collateral, documentation, tools and software become available. See the embedded product line card for more information on Intel’s embedded product lines. |
