1-9 Overview of the Nuvoton WPCM450 Controller

The Nuvoton WPCM450R Controller is a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) that supports 2D/VGA-compatible Graphics cores, 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 a host system via PCI interface to communicate 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 func- tions. 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.
