Technical Specifications
Technical Summary
The Wistron Starlord KBL-R motherboard (Board Number 16888, Revision A00) is built for the KabyLake-R CPU platform. The board supports both UMA-only and discrete Optimus graphics configurations, with the dGPU option utilizing an NVIDIA N17S-G1 chip paired with GDDR5 memory. System memory is DDR4, installed in two SODIMM slots (Channel A and Channel B). The embedded controller is a MEC1416SM, and the audio codec is a Realtek ALC3253. The BIOS is stored on a 16MB Quad Read Flash ROM. Power management is handled by a multi-rail system including an ISL88739 charger and multiple DC-DC converters such as the SY8288RAC-GP, NCP81208MNTXG-GP, and TPS51225RUKR-GP. Connectivity features include a Realtek RTS5176 card reader, a TUSB546-DCI USB hub, and an NGFF WLAN module. Thermal monitoring is provided by a NUVOTON NCT7718W sensor.
