Intel® Firmware Support Package

Intel® Firmware Support Package (Intel® FSP) provides key programming information for initializing Intel® silicon and can be easily integrated into a boot loader of the developer’s choice. It is easy to adopt, scalable to design, reduces time-to-market, and is economical to build.

Intel FSP Components

• CPU, memory controller, and Intel® chipset initialization functions as a binary package: Provides silicon initialization ingredients, preserves existing features and frameworks, and fits into existing boot loaders
• Integration guide: Describes the APIs available to communicate with Intel FSP and to integrate it with a boot-loader solution

Benefits

• No cost or royalties: Intel FSP helps to reduce bill of materials (BOM) costs
• Re-usability: Intel FSP can be used as a plug-in component to easily support future-generations of products
• Greater flexibility: Helps to meet the diverse boot-loader needs of Intel® processor-based systems
• Reduced boot time: Allows for fast-boot implementations
• Broader roadmap: Support many products on Intel® IA road map
• More solutions: Can be integrated with real-time operating system (RTOS) board support packages, hypervisor solutions, and open-source firmware solutions
• Ecosystem support: Ecosystem available to integrate into value-add boot solutions
