1-9 Overview of the Winbond WPCM450R Controller

(For X8DTL-6F Only)

The Winbond WPCM450R Controller is a Baseboard Management Controller

(BMC) that supports the 2D/VGA-compatible Graphics Core with the PCI interface,

Virtual Media, and Keyboard/Video/Mouse Redirection (KVMR) modules. With

blade-oriented Super I/O capability built-in, the WPCM450R Controller is ideal for

legacy-reduced server platforms.

The WPCM450R interfaces with the host system via a PCI interface to commu-

nicate with the Graphics core. It supports USB 2.0 and 1.1 for remote keyboard/

mouse/virtual media emulation. It also provides LPC interface to control Super IO

functions. The WPCM450R is connected to the network via an external Ethernet

PHY module.

The WPCM450R communicates with onboard components via six SMBus inter-

faces, fan control, and Platform Environment Control Interface (PECI) buses.
