ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 7, 2004---- Aptio(TM) Evaluation Kit allows customers to evaluate EFI and Aptio firmware on a stable hardware solution
-- Includes an Intel i875 chipset-based motherboard, documentation, utilities and applications
American Megatrends Inc.(AMI), a leader in BIOS and firmware solutions, announces the Aptio(TM) Evaluation Kit, a complete solution for developers evaluating next-generation BIOS solutions based on the Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) and the Intel(R) Platform Innovation Framework for EFI ('the Framework').
AMI's Aptio solution is available for testing and evaluation using the Aptio Evaluation Kit, an AMI motherboard based on the Intel i875 chipset complete with an Aptio firmware solution. This motherboard allows software developers, testers and firmware engineers to evaluate the Framework 'out of the box'.
'AMI is very excited about the release of its Aptio Evaluation Kit,' said S. Shankar, AMI's president. 'The focus of AMI's engineers has not only been to create a solution under EFI, but a complete set of development tools, utilities and add-ons for the EFI environment. We are shipping the Aptio Evaluation Kit and are prepared for the product release of Aptio later this month.'
Aptio is AMI's next-generation BIOS firmware based on the Intel Platform Innovation Framework for EFI, a new purpose-built architecture that represents the future of platform firmware enabling. AMI will be demonstrating Aptio at booth 742, in the Exhibitor Showcase, at the Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco, CA September 7-9, 2004. Aptio is designed for OEM/ODM customers developing EFI and Framework solutions for upcoming products. Aptio currently allows customers to develop new features on proven and stable silicon before migrating to their next-generation platforms. Along with silicon enabling components, Aptio can be expanded using a variety of drivers, development tools, support utilities and pre-boot application solutions:
-- Development Applications: Visual eBIOS (VeB) and AMI Debug for EFI
-- Support Utilities: AMI Flash Utility suite, Change Logo Utility, SMBIOS data management
Hope And Change Logo
-- AMI PreBoot Application (PBA) environment, allows OEM/ODM to store and execute pre-boot applications in a protected and hidden disk partition
-- AMI Graphical Setup Environment and Graphical Boot Manager, dramatically enhances the user experience when configuring the system
-- Graphical Execution Environment, used to rapidly develop GUI applications for EFI
-- Compatibility Support Module (CSM), providing 'legacy BIOS' compatibility based on AMIBIOS8(TM)
'The Aptio Evaluation Kit is one example of how AMI has applied its experience to Intel's technology, taking the Framework from concept to a product-strength solution,' said Brian Richardson, EFI Product Manager at AMI. 'Aptio is designed so an OEM or ODM customer can use the Framework to produce a viable next-generation product.'
