®
QST
To implement Intel QST, the board must be configured as shown in Figure 7-3 and
listed below:
• 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

QST Platform Requirements
Note: Simple Serial Transport (SST) is a single wire bus that is included in the ICH8 to
provide additional thermal and voltage sensing capability to the Intel Management
Engine (ME).
