EDK II Platforms |Intel® Processor Platforms

Note to developers: Release 0.70 updates the codebase to useUDK2018, and moves to a new branch of edk2-platforms on github (devel-IntelAtomProcessorE3900). Releases prior to 0.69, based on the devel-MinnowBoard3-UDK2017 & devel-MinnowBoard3 branches, are described below for historical purposes.

This codebase is designed for the MinnowBoard 3 platform and Leaf Hill Customer Reference Board (CRB), using theIntel Atom® Processor E3900 Series (formerly Apollo Lake).

Developers can download pre-built UEFI firmware images, utilities, binary object modules, and project release notes. The open source firmware project is available from the TianoCore GitHub:

• https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-platforms/tree/devel-MinnowBoard3-UDK2017
• https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-platforms/tree/devel-MinnowBoard3

MinnowBoard is an open source hardware enabler, encouraging platform experimentation and derivative designs. The project supportsOpen Source Hardware Association principles by making designs publicly available for the community so “anyone can study, modify, distribute, make, and sell the design or hardware based on that design.”

MinnowBoard 3 was a follow-on to theMinnowBoard Max & MinnowBoard Turbot platforms. This design will be migrated toMinnowBoard 3 Module (release date TBD).

Leaf Hill refers to an Intel Customer Reference Board (CRB) using theIntel Atom® Processor E3900 Series (formerly Apollo Lake).

Release 0.69 adds a separate release notes file with instructions for downloading the Leaf Hill CRB source tree and compiling an IFWI image (which slightly differs from MinnowBoard 3).
