"Attachment is the EC code used in A-test board, the current size is
18K. But Quanta is still working on battery management code now. The
size will grow +rapidly, please reserve 64K for final EC.

The SPI ROM is 1MB in A-test board, please combine the EC code in the
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
lowest (ie. beginning) address of flash.

The EC takes care 1) Event detect 2) Power on/off 3) battery management
4) Keyboard/mouse etc.

The EC code control the power on sequence, it run before the BIOS

The EC code can not be compressed.
