ELECTRONIC DEVICE SUPPORTING OUT-OF-BAND COMMUNICATION, AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18215599 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE SUPPORTING OUT-OF-BAND COMMUNICATION, AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method of operating an electronic device that consists of a host device and a storage device. The host device includes a processor and a baseboard management controller (BMC), while the storage device includes a storage controller and a microcontroller unit (MCU). The BMC and the MCU support out-of-band communication. The method involves the BMC providing a first request containing environment data information to the MCU through out-of-band communication, and the MCU providing a first response corresponding to the first request back to the BMC through out-of-band communication.

  • The electronic device includes a host device and a storage device.
  • The host device has a processor and a baseboard management controller (BMC).
  • The storage device has a storage controller and a microcontroller unit (MCU).
  • The BMC and the MCU support out-of-band communication.
  • The BMC sends a first request with environment data information to the MCU through out-of-band communication.
  • The MCU responds to the first request by sending a first response back to the BMC through out-of-band communication.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Remote management and monitoring of electronic devices.
  • Efficient communication between the host device and storage device.
  • Enhanced control and coordination of system components.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Facilitates communication between the host device and storage device.
  • Enables remote access and control of the electronic device.
  • Improves system management and monitoring capabilities.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Streamlines system operations and management.
  • Enhances data transfer and communication efficiency.
  • Enables remote troubleshooting and maintenance.


Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed is a method of operating an electronic device which includes a host device and a storage device. The host device includes a processor and a baseboard management controller (BMC), the storage device includes a storage controller and a micro controller unit (MCU), and the BMC and the MCU support out-of-band communication. The method of operating the electronic device includes providing, by the BMC, a first request including information about environment data to the MCU through the out-of-band communication, and providing, by the MCU, a first response corresponding to the first request to the BMC through the out-of-band communication.
