# HP EliteBook 2560p
This page is about the notebook [HP EliteBook 2560p].
## Release status
HP EliteBook 2560p was released in 2011 and is now end of life.
It can be bought from a secondhand market like Taobao or eBay.
## Required proprietary blobs
The following blobs are required to operate the hardware:
1. EC firmware
2. Intel ME firmware
EC firmware can be retrieved from the HP firmware update image, or the firmware
backup of the laptop. EC Firmware is part of the coreboot build process.
The guide on extracting EC firmware and using it to build coreboot is in
document [HP Laptops with KBC1126 Embedded Controller](hp_kbc1126_laptops).
Intel ME firmware is in the flash chip. It is not needed when building coreboot.
## Programming
The flash chip is located between the memory slots and the PCH,
covered by the base enclosure, which needs to be removed according to
the [Maintenance and Service Guide] to access the flash chip. An SPI
flash programmer using 3.3V voltage such as a ch341a programmer, and
an SOIC-8 clip can be used to read and flash the chip in-circuit.
Pin 1 of the flash chip is at the side near the PCH.
For more details have a look at the general [flashing tutorial].
## Debugging
The board can be debugged with EHCI debug. The EHCI debug port is the back
bottom USB port.
Schematic of this laptop can be found on [Lab One].
