4.1 Overview
A complete management mechanism is strength of AdvancedTCA. An on board IPMC
(Intelligent Platform Management Controller) is in charge of collecting board
information (e.g. sensor events, health status, hot swap, etc.), log events to a
repository, and forwards them to the ShMC (Shelf Manager Controller). The shelf
manager will take actions based on these messages as needed.
4.2 Intelligent Platform Management Controller
A NXP LPC1768 microprocessor and a Lattice LatticeXP2 FPGA form the
management block of the MIC-5332. The system management solution is based on
Advantech IPMI Core G02 which is Advantech’s ATCA System Management
implementation. Its core is a NXP LPC1768 Cortex-M based CPU running on an
RTOS. For the list of supported IPMI commands by Advantech, please refer to
Appendix A, IPMI/PICMG Command Subset Supported by IPMC
.
A Lattice LFXP2F17 FPGA is used to provide additional connectivity for the IPMC and
payload. It provides extension interfaces with configurable routing options as well as
some additional stand-alone functionality.
One of the very basic benefits of Advantech IPMI Core G02 is the high level of
flexibility. Its modular structure allows the same firmware core to be
used on different
xTCA platforms, sharing
a high percentage of identical code.
