Quiet System Technology
To implement the board must be configured as shown in Figure 21 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
