FPGA equipment management system

Abstract

The invention discloses an FPGA equipment management system which comprises hardware equipment (a universal processor, a BMC, a communication bus, a power supply controller, a fan controller, an adjustable clock, an electronic switch, a temperature sensor and the like, wherein the universal processor and the BMC are the core of the system, other accessories are selectable) and management software. The hardware equipment is connected through leading wires on a printed-circuit board or flat cables in a machine box. The management software operates on the universal processor. A user has an access to the management system through a network interface, and long-distance management on an FPGA is completed. The FPGA in the single machine box can be managed effectively, compared with the prior art, the management method of the FPGA in the single machine box is greatly simplified through the system, and the efficiency of application development on the FPGA in the single machine box is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an FPGA array equipment management system. Including power management, thermal management, health management, FPGA programming, chassis built-in device management and other functions. Background technique [0002] FPGA: Field Programmable Gate Array, which is a product of further development on the basis of programmable devices such as PAL, GAL, and CPLD. The establishment and update of its internal logic can be realized by loading programming data to its internal static storage unit. [0003] BMC: Baseboard Management Controller, mainly used for server management. [0004] Management system: It consists of hardware equipment and management software, which jointly complete the management function of a certain equipment or platform. [0005] The existing FPGA devices have the following deficiencies in management: [0006] 1. The FPGA starts up when the system is powered on, without independent power and power consumption con...

Problems solved by technology

[0006] 1. The FPGA starts up with the system powered on, without independent power supply and power consumption control

[0007] 2. The FPGA in the development system is usually provided as a bare device, which needs to be configured by manually setting jumpers or DIP switches, which is cumbersome to operate

In industrial systems, the functions of FPGA are fixed, usually there is no special management system, and the internal logic of FPGA cannot be changed quickly
