The Intel

EP80579 Development Board is shipped as an open system attached to an
acrylic base. Some assembly is required. Standoffs are mounted on the acrylic base to
provide flexibility in changing hardware configurations and peripherals, such as is
necessary in a lab environment. Because the board is not enclosed in a protective
chassis, the user must adhere to safety precautions in handling and operating the
Development Board.

have been identified and located, installation and setup can begin. Figure 17 shows the

green text box are included in the Intel
®
EP80579 Development Kit package.
Components described by a purple text box are optional and are not included in the
Intel
®
EP80579 Development Kit package).
This section describes how to set up the Intel

®
QuickAssist Technology Development Kit for operation. All jumpers are set to
