Design and implementation of a baseboard management controller on ZYNQ chip
With the large-scale development of data centers such as supercomputers and cloud compu-ting,the architecture of motherboards has become increasingly complex,and cost control has become more stringent.The commonly used BMC design solutions have limited scalability,and there is an urgent need to design a low-cost and efficient BMC solution.An integrated development platform based on Vivado and Yocto Project is proposed.A XILINX ZYNQ series FPGA chip is selected and its internal hard core ARM is used to run OpenBMC.The design expands peripherals through AXI bus,which has strong extensibility and high flexibility,thus realizing the dual management of BMC and FPGA,saving space and cost of the motherboard.
