+Overview
+--------
+QorIQ LS1012A Development System (LS1012AQDS) is a high-performance
+development platform, with a complete debugging environment.
+The LS1012AQDS board supports the QorIQ LS1012A processor and is
+optimized to support the high-bandwidth DDR3L memory and
+a full complement of high-speed SerDes ports.
