Technical Summary

The Quanta Z8G project is a motherboard designed around the Intel Gemini Lake (Broxton-P) platform with an integrated PCH. The system memory architecture supports dual-channel DDR4 at up to 2400 MHz via two SO-DIMM slots. The embedded controller is an IT8987, and the audio subsystem is handled by an ALC255 codec. The BIOS is stored on an 8M SPI ROM. Power management is managed by a combination of ICs including the RT3601EAGQW, RT8231BGQW, G5335QT2U, and RT6256BGQUF, while battery charging is controlled by a BQ24780SRUYR. Networking is provided by a Realtek RTL8411B-CG 10/100/1000 Ethernet controller. The board also integrates an NPCT650 TPM module and multiple card reader ICs including the G5719CTB1U, M5671RE1U, and G9661MF11U.
