2.9  Service processor

The service processor is an embedded controller based on a PowerPC 405GP processor 
(PPC405) implementation running the service processor internal operating system. The 
service processor operating system contains specific programs and device drivers for the 
service processor hardware. 

The key components include a flexible service processor-base (FSP-B) and an extender 
chipset (FSP-E). Figure 2-10 illustrates the service processor.

Figure 2-10   Service processor block diagram

The flexible service processor core is a five-stage pipeline instruction processor and contains 
32-bit general purpose registers. The flash ROM contains a compressed image of a software 
load.
