Description

用於大型可縮放處理器設施之模組化運算供應之系統及方法中之系統板及節點卡 [相關申請案/優先權主張]
本申請案根據美國法典第35編第120條主張以下申請案之權利：2012年6月19日申請之標題為「Node Cards For A System And Method For Modular Compute Provisioning In Large Scalable Processor Installations」之美國專利申請案第13/527,498號，及2012年6月19日申請之標題為「System Board For System And Method For Modular Compute Provisioning In Large Scalable Processor Installations」之美國專利申請案第13/527,505號，該等申請案二者又根據美國法典第35編第119條(e)款主張2011年10月31日申請之標題為「System And Method For Modular Compute Provisioning In Large Scalable Processor Installations」之美國臨時專利申請案第61/553,555號之權利，該等申請案中各自之全文以引用方式併入本文中。
發明領域
本揭示案大體上係關於在一系統設計中供應模組化運算資源。
發明背景
伺服器系統一般提供固定數目之選項。舉例而言，通常存在固定數目之CPU插座、記憶體DIMM插槽、PCI快速IO插槽及固定數目之硬碟機架，因為該等選項提供未來之可升級性，所以其常常無載出廠。 預期客戶將判斷出未來的需要且選擇將滿足目前及未來需要之伺服器機殼種類。一直以來，且尤其就x86類伺服器而言，可達成對未來需要之預測，因為產品自一代至另一代之改良係遞增的。
隨著功率最佳化、可縮放伺服器之出現，預測未來需要之能力已變得不再明顯。舉例而言，在2U機殼內之此類高密度、低功率伺服器中，可能以遞增方式裝入120個運算節點。使用此伺服器作為資料儲存裝置，使用者可能僅需要4個運算節點，但可能希望80個儲存驅動器。 使用同類伺服器作為專注於分析學之純運算功能，使用者可能僅需要120個運算節點且不需要儲存驅動器。可縮放伺服器之特性使其適合於更多需要不同系統組態之不同應用。由於多樣性日益增加，預測必須縮放之系統特徵的能力變得愈加困難。
需要提供電腦系統之小型子單元，該等子單元經模組化且可彼此連接以形成大型、高度可組態可縮放伺服器。因此，需要建立一種系統及方法以模組化地縮放此等功率最佳化、高密度、可縮放伺服器中之運算資源。依據本發明之一實施例，係特地提出一種系統板，其包含：一基板，其具有一或多個連接器，其中一組電力信號及一組通訊信號於該一或多個連接器之間進行通訊；一或多個乙太網路實體連接，其連接至一外部實體；及一或多個節點卡，其中各系統板連接至該連接器，且各節點卡藉由該組電力信號供電且藉由該組通訊信號進行通訊。

較佳實施例之詳細說明
本揭示案尤其適用於以下說明且描述之系統板及節點卡之實例，且本揭示案將描述於此文中。然而，將瞭解，因為所揭示之系統及節點卡可以屬於本揭示案之範疇內之不同方式來實施，故本揭示案具有較廣適用性，並且因為可使用系統及節點卡之所有各種應用均屬於本揭示案之範疇內，故本揭示案可用於任何應用。
圖1A示出系統40之一實例，該系統可包括系統板42，在該系統板上可安裝一或多個節點卡。系統板42可裝配於典型伺服器機殼44內且系統板可具有插入該系統板內之一或多個節點卡單元46(以下參看圖2來描述)。需要若干功能來完成完整的經典伺服器，該經典伺服器包括與一或多個節點卡46或節點卡群集建立介面之乙太網路PHY，及伺服器控制功能(風扇控制、按鈕等)。系統板42為將節點卡46連結至此等 組件之組件。在「構件塊」小於所需系統之情況下，或當「構件塊」不為獨立時，若需要階層式硬體分區，則系統板42為所希望的。系統板的作用可包括：乙太網路連接性、子系統中之介於節點卡之間或成組節點卡之間的內部組構(fabric)連接(圖1中之組構設計)及機殼控制與管理。系統板為在節點卡之間連接組構鏈路且允許該等組構鏈路與外部世界通訊之組件。一旦進行組構設計、硬體分區及儲存判斷，系統板42即可將系統組件緊連在一起，且系統之輸入/輸出(I/O)可包括：用於與SFP網路裝置通訊之管理資料輸入/輸出(MDIO)；用於內部組構鏈路之組合PHY；儲存及乙太網路存取；用於偵錯之UART與JTAG埠；及用於機殼組件控制及通訊之SMBus與GPIO。
節點卡上之組構連接可經設計以平衡：SoC PHY之使用、鏈路冗餘、鏈路頻寬及於邊緣連接器處8個鏈路之使用中之彈性。節點卡可與「系統板」結合使用，其中系統板為節點卡提供電力且為脫離系統板之互連(諸如乙太網路收發器)提供連接。系統板可容納一或多個節點卡。在容納一個以上節點卡之情況下，系統板建立伺服器之群集，該等伺服器利用整合於SoC中之伺服器至伺服器互連或組構，或卡上之分離功能。此系統板可以多種形狀製得，包括諸如ATX之工業標準形狀因數，或以客戶形狀因數製得。系統板可為刀鋒型或可裝配於諸如2U或為任何其他尺寸之標準機殼中。
圖1B示出系統板42之更多詳情。系統板42可允許一或多個節點卡46(諸如圖1B中之實例中的460、461、462、...、46n)插入系統板中。系統板42亦可容納管理系統板及節點卡之管理資料輸入/輸出系統60(以下參看圖3來描述)、為系統板42以及一或多個節點卡46分配電力之電力系統70(以下參看圖4至圖5來描述)，及於各節點卡上之節點之間、於節點卡之間且為外部實體提供通訊路徑之交換組構100(以下參看圖7來描述)，該外部實體諸如系統板、其他電腦系統及類似物。
圖2示出可耦接至系統板之節點卡46的實例，諸如節點卡。節點卡可具有單晶片系統(SOC)單元48、至各種通訊及儲存路徑之一或多個PHY 50及以上簡單描述之一或多個其他介面52。節點卡46亦可具有記憶體54、一或多個其他已知模組56(諸如時鐘、晶體、溫度感測器、調整器及電源)，該等已知模組亦為節點卡之部分。節點卡亦可具有SD卡單元58。
圖3示出系統板之管理資料輸入/輸出(MDIO)60。圖2中之節點卡可支援1G及10G乙太網路速度。對於10G鏈路速度，收發器64需要XAUI至SFP+轉換。此實例表明可用2條SFP+至XAUI鏈路以便系統板可使用1或2條輸出鏈路。圖3示出用於4條SFP輸出鏈路66系統板設計之MDIO連接性62，該設計利用開關68來共享MDIO信號。FPGA_GNT[X]為仲裁器之輸出，該輸出允許由各種插槽存取以經由乙太網路PHY收發器64與SFP裝置通訊。
系統板亦提供機殼管理機構，該機殼管理機構可包括風扇控制、用於乙太網路收發器之機殼使用者介面(按鈕、LED等)與系統電壓調整、如圖1所示之系統板中之節點卡插槽(為各節點卡提供電力)及SATA裝置。現更加詳細地描述系統板之電力系統之一實例。
圖4及圖5示出用於系統板之電力系統70的詳情，該電力系統例如為網路系統64及66供電。系統板電力系統應能夠產生且分配節點卡及系統組件所需之DC電壓；具有組織化之電力定序，該電力定序為一種用於各插槽及/或系統組件(總處於動態控制或在動態控制之下)之預定電力控制；且能夠提供動態電力控制。系統板設計利用諸如FPGA之機殼管理單元72與節點卡通訊，以便滿足組件之適當電力開啟順序及動態電力控制。機殼管理單元72可負責用於機殼之電力開啟/關閉順序，且電力系統具有一或多個電力FET 74，該等FET可用於動態地控制高功率乙太網路PHY及網路系統64、66之元件。電力系統亦可為固持節 點卡(諸如節點卡)之各插槽提供12V，以便為各節點卡提供電力。此外，系統板上之各節點卡(或多節點)插槽具有CARD_EN信號(例如在圖5所示)以啟用3.3V、1.8V及0.9V導軌來使節點卡或節點卡之節點的電力開啟/關閉。在電力系統中，就PS_ON#接地而言(在圖4所示)，12V電源可在供應AC電力時為系統板加電。控制面板78上之電力開關76使系統板之各插槽的電力開啟/關閉，但不自機殼管理單元72移除電力，且按下電力開關76按鈕導致機殼管理單元72停止所有插槽電力。
電力系統可具有由機殼管理單元72控制之中間模式，且彼等模式欲啟用10G收發器64或啟用其他插槽。電力系統之較低可運作電力狀態如下：對系統板供電，大部分10G收發器電力FET被關閉，對插槽0供電且啟用，且停用插槽0上之節點1及2。最小網路系統裝置需要保持開啟狀態以便針對插槽0維持單個網路連接，從而為通訊通道提供較高階控制系統。對於意外電力損耗，機殼管理單元72將當前系統電力組態儲存至本地非依電性儲存裝置80中，且當復原AC電力時復原此組態。
圖5示出具有系統板42上之機殼管理單元72之電力系統70的更多詳情。機殼管理單元72可連接至一或多個調整器79，該或該等調整器轉換且調整系統的電壓，諸如3.3伏特電源及1.8伏特I/O電源。
機殼可具有與溫度控制(風扇及溫度感測器)及使用者介面(按鈕、LED、LCD)相關之若干雜項組件。節點卡I/O已加以界定用於此等組件之通訊及控制。在系統板設計中，機殼管理單元72起到控制風扇、使用者介面特徵及經由SMBus連接與節點卡之通訊的作用。以下功能概述用於系統通訊及控制之節點卡I/O：
●用於與系統板裝置通訊之SMBus時鐘信號。
●用於與系統板裝置通訊之SMBus資料信號。
●中斷以向節點報告系統事件。
●向節點報告發生於外部之熱跳脫事件。
●出於通用目的與系統板一起使用。
●CPLD_REQ及CPLD_GNT用於節點之間之主仲裁。
●CPLD_REQ及CPLD_GNT用於節點之間之主仲裁。
SB12(圖6中所示者之一實例)為每一插槽接收一節點卡之12插槽系統板90(在2012年6月19日申請之同在申請中的專利申請案第13/527,498號中描述，該申請案以引用方式併入本文中)。該系統板意欲用於支撐EATX主機板之2U機殼中。儘管對組構路由而言SB12主要為被動的，但存在其執行之一些其他功能，該等功能包括介於節點卡之間之組構互連、用於外部網路連接性之自XAUI至SFP+機箱之轉換(需要[Tom]：刪除Vitesse，因為亦有其他收發器供應者；10Gb收發器)、區域DC電壓調整、UART信號自插槽1至4至外部RS-232埠之多工傳輸、風扇控制及/或電力定序及插槽之啟用/停用。在圖6中之實例中，SB 12具有一或多個節點卡四節點板92及一或多個能量驅動器94，該或該等節點卡四節點板及能量驅動器在2011年10月28日申請之標題為「System And Method For Modular Compute Provisioning In Large Scalable Processor Installations」之同在申請中的專利申請案第13/284,855號中更加詳細地描述，該申請案之全文以引用方式併入本文中。
圖7示出系統板之組構互連100之詳情。該組構互連經設計以平衡對可縮放頻寬、冗餘鏈路及系統板內之實體路由擁塞之需要。存在眾多其他樹狀拓撲，該等樹狀拓撲可在此階層上實施。對於自XAUI至SFP+機箱之轉換，要使用乙太網路收發器。簡言之，圖8中之組構圖中之一組箭頭102連接至Vitesse收發器，該收發器接著連接至SFP+機箱。在SFP+機箱內，使用者可自由地安裝可相容SFP模組(1Gb或10Gb)(銅線或光纖)來滿足其需要。亦可使用具有積體SFP連接器之SFP 纜線。該組構亦將一或多個節點卡46以及各節點卡(N0至N3)中之一或多個節點彼此連接於一起以便其可彼此通訊。
圖8示出系統板之機殼管理單元72之詳情。此裝置將用在系統板上來實現機殼管理功能且針對系統板組態/協調而用於節點卡。此裝置將在多個系統板(1至24個插槽)上工作而無需改進，但若需要則可加以改進，例如技術者可在3插槽系統板上使用較小裝置(所需的I/O較少)。此裝置亦可放大以支援僅受系統組構之可允許尺寸限制之插槽數量。在一實施例中，機殼管理單元72可為FPGA。
機殼管理單元72可具有外部網路插槽，該等外部網路插槽為節點卡插槽，該等節點卡插槽具有至系統板SFP之連接以便連接至外部網路，且內部組構為XAUI連接，該等連接存在於節點卡(二者皆在系統板卡上)之間，及其中安裝有節點卡之插槽之間。系統可具有主節點(在節點卡中之一者內)，該主節點已被指派來控制其他節點及/或其他節點卡。主節點卡為安裝於外部網路插槽中之節點卡上的單個節點卡，該外部網路插槽經指定以執行機殼管理功能(經由節點控制器執行)。 若欲支援仲裁，則另一外部網路插槽中之節點卡可經交換以起到此作用。主節點卡為安裝於乙太網路插槽中之系統板卡，且系統暫存器空間122為經由節點卡SMBus 120(其包括用於諸如機殼重置、開啟/關閉電力、插槽重置、故障狀態等事物之位元數)可存取之公用系統暫存器。([Tom]吾人可討論此最後一安排，以確認其用意。)SMBus並不向外部路由至任何正規機殼。
機殼管理單元72之電力管理包括程式碼及I/O信號以支援系統板及節點卡組件之電力開啟及重置需求。所安裝系統板卡之電力開啟由機殼管理單元72及主節點卡控制。插槽電力及時序可經固接連線至機殼管理單元72，但亦可經由主節點卡控制。
機殼管理單元72亦執行系統板資源之仲裁，且系統板資源可每次 由主節點卡藉助於介於4個主節點卡之間的受機殼管理單元72控制之仲裁來存取。GPIO CPLD_REQ及CPLD_GNT經由外部網路插槽(插槽0至插槽3)連接至節點卡。
MDIO匯流排(MII匯流排)為主節點卡之共用資源。該MDIO匯流排由主節點卡使用來存取乙太網路收發器之媒體獨立介面以達成其組態。應注意，一個主節點卡具有存取未連接至其之收發器之MDIO的能力。外部插槽節點卡將需要協調以避免衝突。
一組UART 124為一種系統板DB9/RS232收發器，其為主節點卡之共用資源。僅主節點卡將對收發器進行存取且能夠使用其UART介面以自機殼與外部通訊。
系統板組態輸入
系統板具有用於系統組態之以下輸入，該等輸入由機殼管理單元72讀取且可經由系統暫存器空間用於主節點卡：
●板Rev ID--根據需要使用以提供板版本/總成之間之區別。
●系統板ID--根據需要使用以提供不同系統板之間，例如系統板之OEM(原始設備製造商)變體之間的區別。
●插槽存在--亦使用相同信號來啟用對插槽之供電。當首先安裝一卡時，機殼管理單元72將由該卡之向該信號的內部上拉(pullup)來偵測該卡之存在。機殼管理單元72將在系統暫存器空間中記錄此存在狀態。此外，當機殼管理單元72經由此信號啟用對該插槽之供電時，其將驅動線路變低。存在狀態經由所偵測且儲存於系統暫存器空間中之原始存在而喚回。
機殼控制面板126包括任何按鈕、LED或位於機殼上供使用者輸入之其他裝置。控制面板由機殼管理單元72驅動且可經由系統暫存器空間由主節點卡存取。風扇由風扇控制單元128驅動，該風扇控制單元為機殼管理單元72之部分且經由系統暫存器空間由主節點卡控制。
JTAG用於更新機殼管理單元72上之韌體影像。此藉由介於插槽0中之節點卡邊緣連接器與機殼管理單元72之間的JTAG連接來執行。其他節點卡插槽將不加以連接以保持JTAG匯流排未被佔用。
系統板可含有多個實體連接器，含有介於用於電力及傳訊之實體連接器之間的路由及一或多個乙太網路實體連接，其中該等實體連接器連接至一PCB，一或多個伺服器位於該PCB上。在一實施例中，連接器可能為PCIe。介於連接器之間之路由可使用XAUI及/或SGMII。電力可為12v或施加至系統板之較高電壓，其中該12v係於系統板上自AC產生。系統板可位於裝配至機架中之機殼中，及/或該系統板可為刀鋒型。系統板可包括置放於機殼內之額外系統，在機殼內，電力及信號路由通過一板，該板與板上之一或多個連接器連接，從而無需任何額外導線即可形成橋。系統板可具有ATX形狀因數。若使用SGMII，則SGMII可自一實體連接器路由至用於連接至標準乙太網路纜線之1G位元PHY。當使用來自額外連接器之一或多個SGMII信號時，該等信號被路由至額外乙太網路PHY，從而啟用欲線路中繼至系統板之多個乙太網路纜線。系統板亦可具有用於乙太網路之調整。系統板亦具有一裝置，該裝置自XAUI通向輸出，該輸出通向PHY及/或在該設備上具有SFP機箱。
在另一態樣中，機殼控制器72可具有啟用向各連接器傳訊之系統控制器。系統控制器可以眾多方式實施，諸如可規劃邏輯(FPGA)或冷邏輯(cold logic)(標準微控制器或固定功能ASIC)。系統控制器可為具有記憶體及GPIO介面之任何類型處理器。系統控制器可包括SMBus仲裁，其中機殼管理器具有控制該仲裁之鎖。在一實施例中，在系統板上可能不存在不同於機殼管理單元與乙太網路收發器之處理器。機殼控制器可具有用於乙太網路及機殼管理單元之調整器。
電力按鈕可自機殼路由至機殼控制器，以便當按下電力按鈕時通 知一或多個節點卡，且該節點卡將訊息發送至所有節點卡以便適度地停機。可能存在串列埠連接器以使得機殼管理器可經由串列埠與外部裝置通訊。系統控制可啟用且控制乙太網路PHY及節點卡。給定節點卡可具有至系統控制器之數位鏈路，從而啟用節點卡內之伺服器來與系統控制器通訊或控制系統控制器。在節點卡內亦可能存在一個以上伺服器，該等伺服器可經由多個獨立鏈路及一共用數位鏈路中之一個與系統控制器通訊。共用數位鏈路為具有數位控制之SMBus通道，該等數位控制啟用該通道之仲裁。系統控制可具有燈及插槽啟用之機殼控制。連接器介面可具有XAUI、電力及數位啟用信號。可能存在一節點卡，該節點卡可藉由將指令給予機殼管理器來控制其他伺服器之啟用，以便藉由與機殼管理器(該機殼管理器經由數位GPIO啟用或停用一插槽)通訊而啟用或停用另一槽中之伺服器或一組伺服器。在系統中，藉由向連接至控制伺服器啟用之機殼管理器之伺服器發送訊息，任何伺服器可請求關機。
系統控制器或系統板可具有一或多個溫度感測器。溫度感測器可連接至系統控制器，從而啟用待讀取且待由系統控制器控制之溫度感測器。藉由與系統控制器通訊，節點卡可獲取溫度資訊，其中系統控制器係自系統板上之一或多個溫度感測器獲取溫度資訊。另外，一個以上伺服器可獲取溫度資訊。
系統板可能具有連接至風扇之輸出。藉由設定獨立於系統控制器或節點卡之系統板上之DIP開關或其他值，可設定風扇速度。系統板上可存在風扇。機殼控制器單元可使用獨立於節點卡之溫度感測器輸入而對風扇速度做出決策。另外，一個節點卡可自機殼管理器獲取溫度資訊且可對風扇速度做出決策且可告知機殼管理器如何設置風扇。在其他實施例中，主伺服器可自各伺服器獲取關於溫度之資訊且做出風扇決策，接著與機殼管理器對話以改變風扇速度。
系統板亦可包括驅動器及SATA且系統板可容納能量驅動器，包括供電及啟用。SATA通道包含於系統板內允許介於節點卡內之能量驅動器與伺服器之間的連接性，而無需使用眾多佈纜。碟片亦可安裝於系統板上，該等碟片利用所嵌入之SATA通道。

節點卡
現更加詳細地描述可插入系統板中之節點卡的若干不同實例。此等節點卡調節經設計用於伺服器應用之高度積體SoC，該等SoC啟用迄今尚不可用之密度及系統設計選項。卡可經界定而具有一或多個伺服器之功能性，且此等卡可鏈接於一起以在極其密集的實施例中形成伺服器群集。卡之高階描述將包括實施伺服器功能性之高度積體SoC、 DRAM記憶體、諸如電壓調整之支援電路、及時鐘。該卡之輸入/輸出將為電力及伺服器至伺服器互連及/或伺服器至乙太網路PHY連接性。亦可添加SATA連接來與驅動器建立介面。圖10中展示具有一或多個單晶片系統(SOC)系統之節點卡的一實例。
各節點卡46上之組構連接可經設計以平衡：SoC PHY之使用、鏈路冗餘、鏈路頻寬及於邊緣連接器處8條鏈路之使用中之彈性。與圖11中所示相似，節點卡46可與系統板結合使用，其中系統板為節點卡提供電力且為脫離系統板之互連(諸如乙太網路收發器)提供連接。系統板可容納一或多個節點卡。在容納一個以上節點卡之情況下，系統板建立伺服器群集，該等伺服器利用整合於SoC中之伺服器至伺服器互連或組構，或卡上之分離功能。此系統板可以多種形狀製得，包括諸如ATX之工業標準形狀因數，或以客戶形狀因數製得。系統板可為刀鋒型或可裝配於諸如2U或為任何其他尺寸之標準機殼中。
圖10示出節點卡60之一實例。節點卡可為具有公實體連接器之印刷電路板，在該電路板上存在一或多個伺服器，該等伺服器自實體連接器上之信號中的一些獲取電力且將連接器上之信號中的一些用於伺服器至伺服器通訊或伺服器至乙太網路PHY連接。在一實施例中，實體連接器可為PCIe連接器。節點卡可具有啟用伺服器之實體連接器之啟用(參見圖10中之CARD_EN)。節點卡可具有包括於PCB上之調整器，以將經調整之電力供應提供至脫離電力供應之伺服器的各種部分，該電力供應經由可作為PCIe連接器實施之一或多個邊緣連接器提供，且該等啟用(CARD_EN)可能連接至調整器。節點卡上之電壓可為12V。調整器可產生一公用電壓，其可為3.3V(如圖2中之實例中所示)、1.8V、0.9V及/或1.35或1.5V。各節點卡可具有一或多個SoC 62、記憶體及適當調整器，但亦可在包括多個SoC及多組DRAM之PCB上具有多個伺服器，且DRAM係焊接於PCB上且信號被路由至SoC。或者，DRAM 位於DIMM上，且使用一連接器(該連接器之信號被路由至SoC)將DIMM連接至PCB。
在圖10中之實例中，節點卡60可包括一或多個單晶片系統(SOC)62(諸如，如圖10中所示之SOC0至SOC3)，且各SOC為節點64的部分，諸如，如所示之節點N0至N3，其中節點可為運算節點、儲存節點及類似節點。節點卡上之SoC可具有散熱片。各節點64可進一步包括一或多個LED、記憶體(例如DDR)、時鐘、連接至SoC之溫度感測器(TEMP)、SD插槽及SPI_FLASH插槽，如圖10所示。因此，節點卡亦可具有連接至SoC之儲存卡，諸如SD、uSD、MMC、eMMC(如以下圖14中之實例中所示)。在一實施例中，可使用NAND或NOR且可將其連接至SoC(諸如在以下圖12至圖13中之實例)，及/或可使用串列快閃記憶體且可將其連接至SoC。
節點卡亦可具有一或多個通訊及/或儲存連接66，諸如至各種SATA裝置之連接、至XAUI及UART之可經由邊緣連接器之連接。在節點卡中，伺服器至伺服器通訊可為XAUI，且一或多個XAUI被路由至邊緣連接器，且XAUI信號自邊緣連接器路由至SoC及/或XAUI信號在PCB上之SoC之間路由。在節點卡中，伺服器至伺服器通訊可能為SGMII，且一或多個SGMII被路由至邊緣連接器，且SGMII信號自PCIe連接器路由至SoC或SGMII信號在PCB上之SoC之間路由。
節點卡亦可具有SATA連接器。SATA信號可自SoC路由至SATA連接器，或將多個SATA連接器添加至PCB且多個SATA連接器自SoC路由至SATA連接器。節點卡亦可在該卡或該卡上之mSATA上具有迷你SATA。SATA可自SoC路由至邊緣連接器。在一些實施例中，多個SATA連接在SoC與邊緣連接器之間建立且使用PCIe x1或x2，或x4，或x8或x16或x32。節點卡可使用多個邊緣連接器或多個邊緣連接器之任何組合，諸如x1或x2、或x4、或x8或x16或x32。可能存在一組DC值，諸如 上拉及下拉以設定插槽識別符及類似物及低速度信號，且此等DC值可施加至邊緣連接器且被路由至PCB上以用於設置、控制、ID或資訊，且DC值被路由至一或多個SoC上之GPIO。
邊緣連接器亦可具有用於JTAG及ALTBOOT之傳訊(以下更加詳細地描述)。邊緣連接器亦可提供SLOT傳訊、GPIO傳訊及電力(具有啟用)。JTAG信號自一或多個SoC路由至邊緣連接器及串列埠及/或UART信號自邊緣連接器路由至一或多個SoC。SoC可具有額外信號，或信號組被路由至邊緣連接器，該邊緣連接器係用於仲裁串列埠或UART之使用。在系統中，一數位信號可施加至邊緣連接器以藉由將此信號自邊緣連接器連接至一或多個SoC上之一信號來引起交替啟動程序，從而引起或啟用交替啟動。該數位信號或該等數位信號可施加至邊緣連接器以藉由將該SoC或該等SoC連接至連接器上之此數位信號而引起至SoC或該等SoC之中斷。系統可能具有位準移位器，該位準移位器用在PCB上以將施加於邊緣連接器邊緣之信號轉譯成施加至SoC之信號。此外，自SoC路由至邊緣連接器之數位信號重置及/或控制及/或將資訊提供至乙太網路實體層或SFP(不位於PCB上)且可能用於重置、啟用、停用、管理資料輸入/輸出(mdio)、故障、信號之損耗及速率。
圖11示出四節點卡1100之一實例。四節點卡1100可具有：一或多個單晶片系統1102(在此實例中為SoC0至SoC3)；一或多個依電性記憶體裝置1104，諸如四個4GB DDR3迷你DIMM(每節點1個)或DDR3L記憶體晶片；一或多個儲存介面1106，諸如16個SATA連接器(每節點4個)；一或多個SD插槽(每節點1個，不支援MMC)；及一或多個SPI快閃晶片(每節點1個)。四節點卡可藉由經邊緣連接器1108供應之12V dc供電--所有其他電壓皆在內部由調整器產生。四節點卡可具有伺服器互連組構連接1110，該伺服器互連組構連接經由邊緣連接器1108，經與該節點卡連接之系統板路由至其他節點卡或經由邊緣連接器路由至 外部乙太網路收發器及I2C及GPIO路由(每個系統之需求)。在一些實施例中，四節點卡1100不具有乙太網路PHY收發器，其他實施例可選擇在節點卡上使用乙太網路收發器且將此作為互連來路由，且節點卡不為獨立設計，而可與系統板一起使用。
四節點卡實例由4個伺服器節點組成，各伺服器節點由具有DIMM及區域周邊設備之Calxeda®能量節點SoC形成，該Calxeda®能量節點SoC獨立於任何其他節點來運行Linux作業系統。藉由設計，此等節點可直接互連以形成經由系統乙太網路埠提供網路存取之高頻寬組構。自網路觀點考慮，伺服器節點作為獨立伺服器出現；各伺服器節點可用於接受工作任務。
圖12及圖13示出具有一或多個連接器1108之節點卡1200、1300的兩個實例。連接器可為PCIe連接器，該連接器在節點卡與系統板之間建立習知實體互連，但可使用任何類型連接器。連接器類型基於在組構互連之交換頻率下的連接器效能來選擇。舉例而言，可購自Tyco Electronics及Samtec之工業標準Micro TCA連接器至多於12GHz下操作。在圖12及圖13中之實例中，節點卡具有SOC1102、記憶體1104、儲存介面1106及組構連接器1110，但亦可包括一或多個持續記憶體裝置1112，諸如NAND快閃記憶體。節點卡定義可改變，如以下可見，SATA連接器之數目及/或用於伺服器至伺服器通訊之組構互連之數目可變化。節點卡中PCIe連接器之類型可基於互連之數量及設計中所需之其他信號而顯著地改變。圖12及13展示兩個PCIe x16連接器，但節點卡可使用任何數量之PCIe連接器及任何類型PCIe(x1、x2、x4等)來改變。儘管為求簡潔而在圖12或圖13中未展示，但由於組構連接性與節點卡一起存在，所以在系統板42上繪示之實體乙太網路介面亦可駐留於節點卡上。
圖14示出單伺服器節點卡1400之一實例。單伺服器節點卡1400可 具有一個處理器SoC 1102、4GB(或以下)DDR3 DRAM 1104(無DIMM)、microSD插槽1114、SATA資料連接器1106、mSATA連接器1116、至邊緣連接器1108之用於組構連接性之一或多個XAUI通道(在此實例中為4個)，且該伺服器節點卡可能小於2" x 4"。此組合以輕鬆地整合於眾多機殼設計中之形狀因數提供運算、網路連接IO、系統記憶體及強大ARM伺服器所需之儲存介面。此節點卡實施具有客戶電氣傳訊介面之x16 PCI連接器，該介面遵循乙太網路XAUI介面定義。節點卡1400可為雙面印刷電路板，組件位於各側面上，如圖14所示。
儘管前文已參看本發明之特定實施例，但熟習此項技術者將瞭解，可能在此實施例中之做出改變而不脫離本揭示案之原理及精神，本揭示案之範疇由隨附申請專利範圍界定。
