+<h1><a name="SpdData">Memory Timing Data</a></h1>
+<p>
+ Memory timing data is located in the flash. This data is in the format of

+ (SPD) data.
+ Use the following steps to load the SPD data:

+ <li>Edit Kconfig to add the DISPLAY_SPD_DATA" value which enables the
+ display of the SPD data being passed to MemoryInit
+ </li>

+ <li>Read the SPD data either from the spd.bin file or using I2C or SMBUS</li>
+ <li>Fill in the pei_data structure with SPD data for each of the DIMMs</li>
+ <li>Set the DIMM channel configuration</li>
+ </ol>
+ </li>
