The Headland HT12 was a chipset commonly found in many late 286 motherboards from the early 90s. These boards have either socketed or soldered CPUs, mainly Harris or AMD, which can reach up to 16MHz operation, with hardware EMS support.
The maximum amount of RAM is 4MB. These boards usually came with AMIBIOS and onboard diagnostics written into the ROM.
The manufacturer of some of these board is unknown, so it has been documented here as the Headland HT12.

Memory
Hardware EMS
This motherboard works with the HT12 chipset drivers, which provide an EMS interface allowing a chosen amount of memory above 1MB to be accessed as EMS. Thus it is possible for this board to be configured to have conventional, EMS, XMS and Int15 extended memory available, all at the same time.
UMBs
The chipset does not natively support backfilling unused parts of upper memory with UMBs. However if EMS support is not required, third party drivers can use the hardware EMS facility to make a small amount of memory available in as UMBs.
