The Development Kit contains a baseboard with two Dual-Core Intel Xeon processors LV, Intel® E7520 MCH, 6300ESB, and other system board components and peripheral connectors. Various software and documentation are also included in the kit.

In addition to the included Dual-Core Intel® Xeon® processors LV 2.0 GHz processors, the following processors are also supported with this Development Kit:

Dual-Core Intel® Xeon® processor LV 1.66 GHz (dual-processor capable)

Dual-Core Intel® Xeon® processor ULV 1.66 GHz (dual-processor capable)

Celeron® processor 1.66 GHz (uni-processor only)

Celeron® processor 1.83 GHz (uni-processor only)

If you wish to use one of these options instead of the included processors, please contact your Intel sales representative. You will be sent new processor(s) and will need to download the latest microcode updates and BIOS revision specific to your new processor(s). There are currently two versions of BIOS. One version supports the LV and ULV versions, while the other version supports Celeron version.

Note: The evaluation board is shipped as an open system with standoffs allowing for maximum flexibility in changing hardware configuration and peripherals in a lab environment. Since the board is not in a protective chassis, the user is required to observe extra precautions when handling and operating the system. Some assembly is required before use.
