Intelligent Platform Management Controller
The blade provides an Intelligent Platform Management Controller (IPMC) unit based an
the 8−bit Atmel ATmega AVR microcontrollers. The IPMC is fully compliant to the IPMI
V1.5 standard and provides the following interfaces:

S IPMB0A and IPMB0B available via the backplane
S IPMB−L connected to rear transition module
S IPMB−L connected to rear transition module
a
S I2C interfaces connected to on−board PMCs slots and sensors
S Analog−to−Digital Conversion (ADC)interfaces connected to on−board sensors
S Digital I/O interfaces connected to on−board sensors
One of the main tasks of the IPMC is to control the power up and power down of the
blade. For this purpose the IPMC is connected to the on−board power supply module via
control and status lines. Various on−board IPMI sensors provide detailed information on
the current power status of the blade to any interested party connected to the IPMI
network.
