2.2.9.3. Board Management Controller Overview

The Board Management Controller (BMC) is responsible for controlling, monitoring and giving low-level access to board features. The BMC microcontroller interfaces with on-board sensors, the FPGA and the flash. It also controls power and resets. The microcontroller communicates over PCIe I2C using the Platform Level Data Model (PLDM) 1.1.1 protocol.

The firmware that runs on the BMC microcontroller is field upgradeable over PCIe using the remote system update feature.

BMC Features

  • Power up / down sequencing and fault detection with automatic shut-down protection
  • Monitoring of the status of board components (board power and component level temperature sensors)

For more details refer to the Board Management Controller section.
