METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MANAGING A SYSTEM HARDWARE USING A MICRO CONTROLLER AND A STANDARD I2C BUS PROTOCOL

摘要

PURPOSE: A system hardware managing system is provided to be capable of maintaining a system stability, and of improving a system reliability by diagnosing a system trouble rapidly and exactly. CONSTITUTION: A system hardware managing system comprises a micro system management controller(20) which controls a management of a micro system. A host interface module(10) enables a user to control hardware information through an interface with a host(11). An I2C slave device interface module(40) controls and obtains information of a hardware at a micro controller by use of an I2C bus protocol. A control interface module(50) processes input information of a control plate(51), and an I2C bus multiplexer(30) multiplexes an I2C bus.
