Intel® Cyclone® V RunBMC Card

Disclaimer: The Intel® Cyclone® V RunBMC Card has been designed and enabled by Intel as a proof of concept (PoC) solution and technology enabling. For further details on Cyclone V SoC FPGAs and the next-generation SoC FPGAs from Intel that can run the OpenBMC firmware, please use the contact information provided on this web page.

This module is compliant with the OCP RunBMC v1.4.1 specification. It enables the use of
Intel’s Cyclone V SoC FPGAs as a baseboard management controller (BMC) solution. Intel’s Cyclone V
SoC FPGAs embed a hardened dual-core Arm Cortex-A9 subsystem closely coupled with the FPGA fabric.

Such a combination provides an easy way of enabling the OpenBMC firmware with great flexibility in
adjusting the BMC hardware with a mix of hard intellectual property (IP) cores from the Arm subsystem and soft IP cores running on the FPGA fabric.
