Application: Computer system with flexible architecture (Patent ID: US20240193104A1)
The patent filed by Quanta Computer Inc. describes a configurable computer system architecture that includes a power distribution board with a configuration identification strapping, internal communication channels, and multiple nodes with processors and baseboard management controllers (BMCs). The BMCs can be configured to operate in different modes based on the configuration identified by the strapping, allowing for independent operation of nodes or combining them into a single device with master and slave BMC roles. The system architecture also includes features like DIMM modules, additional processors, firmware defining BMC functions, and network interface configurations.
The method outlined in the patent involves configuring a computer system with multiple nodes by powering on BMCs, reading configurations from the identification strapping, and setting BMCs as master or slave based on the identified configuration. The master BMC controls the power-on sequence of nodes and performs management functions for the system, while the slave BMC handles specific tasks like sensor monitoring. The method also covers scenarios with multiple nodes operating as a single device, communication through network interfaces, and internal communication channels utilizing various buses. Additionally, the method details the use of DC-SCM boards, different configurations for multiple nodes, and the role of the configuration identification strapping in defining the system setup.
