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. |
Why is some content locked?
|
Intel private information (indicated by a lock symbol) may only be disclosed to third parties under a valid Corporate Non-Disclosure Agreement (CNDA). Access to locked content on the Intel® Embedded website is limited to users who have received approval of their Privileged Registration Request. |

When using search features, should I use the standard search box or Find it fast?
|
The standard search box located in the upper right-hand corner of the pages searches intel.com/embedded and other Intel sites including ark.intel.com, developer.intel.com, intel.com and software.intel.com Find it fast searches intel.com/embedded and allows you to refine your search criteria to specific topics (example: hardware) and document categories (example: benchmarks) and retrieves content that corresponds to your selections. Keyword search retrieves all documents that correspond to the selected keyword. |

What is the difference between the two users levels, Basic and Privileged?
|
The Basic User level provides open access to public content on the site. Registering as a Basic User lets you share ideas and insights and collaborate with other members of the Intel® embedded community. The Privileged User level provides Basic User benefits plus password-protected access to confidential Intel information located on the site, including schematic and layout files and specification models, in addition to technical training, electronic support and Intel’s Embedded Hardware Test Tool Loan Program. |
What is the registration process?
|
To register as a Basic User, complete the online registration form, including your acceptance of the Registered Basic User Terms & Conditions. To register as a Privileged User, complete the online registration form which includes submission of your business profile and acceptance of Registered Privileged User Terms & Conditions.

How do I qualify for Privileged User status?
|
To qualify for Privileged User status, a valid Corporate Non-Disclosure Agreement (CNDA) must exist between your company and Intel Corporation. If a CNDA does not exist, your eligibility for a CNDA will be reviewed our registration administrator and the Intel field sales representative in your area. Please submit your request using a company e-mail address, not a personal e-mail domain. |
