US15W - Bios Release Notes Clarification

RDool1 — Mon, 12 Apr 2010 08:28:38 GMT

Hello,

I would like to have some more clarification on this note.

From the bios release notes for the Poulsbo, you can see that for the latest bios, there is a section where it says that:"S3 is not supported by processor" (See attached Picture)

http://edc.intel.com/Download.aspx?id=1150&returnurl=/Platforms/Atom-Z5xx/default.aspx http://edc.intel.com/Download.aspx?id=1150&returnurl=/Platforms/Atom-Z5xx/default.aspx" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://edc.intel.com/Download.aspx?id=1150&returnurl=/Platforms/Atom-Z5xx/default.aspx

Now if you check the Atom Design Guide Doc ID# 364622, Table 86 & 87 confirms that S3 is supported.

Is this a mistake? I would appreciate if you could clarify this point.

Thank you for your assistance.

Kind Regards,Aryan.
