Field Programmable Gate Array

The Field Programmable Gate array (FPGA) provides ACPI and LPC support for the PDH bus
and provides these features:

•

ACPI 2.0 interface

•

LPC bus interface to support BMC

•

Decoding logic for PDH devices

BMC

The BMC supports the industry-standard Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI)
specification. This specification describes the management features that have been built into the
system board. These features include: diagnostics (both local and remote), console support,
configuration management, hardware management and troubleshooting.

The BMC provides the following:

•

Compliance with IPMI 1.0

•

Tachometer inputs for fan speed monitoring

•

Pulse width modulator outputs for fan speed control

•

Push-button inputs for front panel buttons and switches

•

One serial port, multiplexed with the system console port

•

Remote access and intelligent chassis management bus (ICMB) support

•

Three I

2

C master/slave ports (one of the ports is used for intelligent platform management

bus (IPMB)

•

Low Pin Count (LPC) bus provides access to three Keyboard Controller Style (KCS) and
one-Block Transfer (BT) interface

•

32-bit ARM7 RISC processor

•

160-pin Low Profile Flat Pack (LQFP) package

•

Firmware is provided for the following interfaces:
— IPMI
— IPMB

SCSI Controller

The SCSI controller is a LSI Logic 53C1030 chip. This chip is fully compliant with the SCSI
Peripheral Interface-4 Specification (SPI-4). It has two independent SCSI channels supporting
devices at speeds up to 320 MB/seconds each. The 53C1030 adheres to the PCI-X addendum, to
the PCI Local Specification, and is hard-wired to PCI ID 1 which corresponds to bit 17 of the PCI
AD bus.
