4.4.3.3.5. Unsupported Devices

The HAL provides a wide variety of native devices support for Intel-supplied peripherals. However, your system may require a device or peripheral that Intel does not offer. In this case, one or both of the following two options is available for you:

  • Obtain a device through Intel third-party program
  • Incorporate your own device

Incorporating your own custom peripheral is a two-stage process. First you must incorporate the peripheral in the hardware using Platform Designer, and then you must develop a device driver.
