Chrome EC
The wiki is being retired!
Documentation is now handled by the same processes we use for code: Add something to the Documentation/ directory in the coreboot repo, and it will be rendered to https://doc.coreboot.org/. Contributions welcome!
Chrome EC
The Chrome EC is used in almost all Chrome OS devices, and an increasing number of accessories, like Google's Type C chargers. It is based on the Chromium EC code base.

Building in the ChromiumOS environment
Getting started building EC images quickly
Building outside of the ChromiumOS chroot
You will need:
- GNU Make 4.1 (older versions are having trouble with the Makefiles)
- an ARM cross compiler (I used coreboot's armv7-a-eabi- toolchain)
Patching up the code:
