I2C is a two-wire communications bus/protocol developed by NXP. SMBus is a subset of the I2C bus/protocol and was developed by Intel.
Implementations of the I2C bus/protocol may require licenses from various entities, including NXP Semiconductors N.V.
Intel® 64 architecture requires a system with a 64-bit enabled processor, chipset, BIOS and software. Performance will vary depending on the
specifichardware and software you use. Consult your PC manufacturer for more information. For more information, visit
http://www.intel.com/content/
www/us/en/architecture-and-technology/microarchitecture/intel-64-architecture-general.html.
Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT) requires a computer system with an enabled Intel® processor, BIOS, and virtual machine monitor
(VMM).Functionality, performance or other benefits will vary depending on hardware and software configurations. Software applications may not
becompatible with all operating systems. Consult your PC manufacturer. For more information, visit
http://www.intel.com/go/virtualization.
The original equipment manufacturer must provide TPM functionality, which requires a TPM-supported BIOS. TPM functionality must be initialized
andmay not be available in all countries.
For Enhanced Intel SpeedStep® Technology, see the Processor Spec Finder at
http://ark.intel.com/
or contact your Intel representative for
moreinformation.
Intel® AES-NI requires a computer system with an AES-NI enabled processor, as well as non-Intel software to execute the instructions in the
correctsequence. AES-NI is available on select Intel® processors. For availability, consult your reseller or system manufacturer. For more information,
