Abstract:
A method is provided for assembling a computer that includes a carrier board having a board management controller (BMC), a power supply, and a carrier bus. The method includes coupling a module to the carrier board, determining, by the carrier board, a type of the module, and providing power to the module based on the module type such that a voltage component of the power is one of a first voltage and a second voltage that is different than the first voltage.
