NXP® ARM7 microcontroller with 512 kB f irmware flash and automatic rollback
strategy
The MMC carries out IPMI commands such as monitoring several onboard tempera-
ture conditions, board voltages and the power supply status, and managing hot
swap operations.
The MMC is accessible via a local IPMB (IPMB-L) and one host Keyboard Controller
Style Interface (KCS)
One MMC system EEPROM for FRU data and f irmware private data
The AM4024(E) has full hot swap capability.
Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 1.2 for enhanced hardware- and sof tware-based
data and system security

» FRU inventory functionality
» IPMI Watchdog functionality (power-cycle, reset)
» Board monitoring and control extensions:
» Graceful shutdown support
» uEFI BIOS fail-over control: selection of the SPI boot flash (standard/re-
covery)
» Field-upgradable IPMI f irmware:
» Via the KCS, IPMB or IOL interfaces
» Download of firmware does not break the currently running firmware or
payload activities
» Two flash banks with rollback capability: manual rollback or automatic in case
of upgrade failure
