Uncomment and update `FILE DATA` statement in `<Your Platform Package>/MicrocodeUpdateTxt/MicrocodeCapsuleTxt.fdf` with path to a Microcode MCB file.  The MCB file is placed in `$(WORKSPACE)/$(OUTPUT_DIRECTORY)/$(TARGET)_$(TOOL_CHAIN_TAG)/IA32/<Your Platform Package>/MicrocodeUpdateTxt/Microcode/Microcode/OUTPUT/`.

`FILE DATA = <your Microcode MCB file path>`

Uncomment and update `PLATFORM_NAME`, `FLASH_DEFINITION`, `OUTPUT_DIRECTORY` section in `<Your Platform Package>/MicrocodeUpdateTxt/MicrocodeCapsuleTxt.dsc` with <Your Platform Package>.

    PLATFORM_NAME                  = <Your Platform Package>
    FLASH_DEFINITION               = <Your Platform Package>/MicrocodeCapsuleTxt/MicrocodeCapsuleTxt.fdf
    OUTPUT_DIRECTORY               = Build/<Your Platform Package>

Uncomment and update statement in `Components` section of `<Your Platform Package>/MicrocodeUpdateTxt/MicrocodeCapsuleTxt.dsc` with path to a Microcode INF file.
