System Management Controller

A dedicated System Management Controller (SMC) on the CP308 manages system relevant
tasks and supports SMC commands and sensors.
The SMC can measure onboard voltages and temperature values, and control and supervise
fans and other CompactPCI cards in a system. The control and supervision of CompactPCI
cards is performed via the I²C bus (IPMB) on the CompactPCI connector J1.
The SMC communicates with the processor via the Keyboard Controller Style (KCS) interface,
which is at the I/O location 0xCA2 and 0xCA3.
To read status information (e.g. POST code) and configure some CPLD registers, the SMC can
directly communicate with the onboard CPLD chip via an I²C interface.
