1. A baseboard management control device, comprising:
an input and output device, comprising:
a sensing device, coupled to a plurality of input pins and a plurality of output pins to respectively sense and write target data; and
a baseboard management controller, coupled to the input and output device, comprising:
a storage device, pre-storing the target data; and
a main processor, coupled to the storage device and reading the target data in the storage device according to a predetermined cycle,
an input and output processor, coupled to the storage device, sending a read request to the sensing device based on a task requirement of the main processor, and pre-storing the target data in the storage device,
wherein the input and output processor sends the read request and updates the target data in the storage device during an empty window from work before the main processor reads the target data in the storage device according to the predetermined cycle,
wherein the baseboard management controller and the input and output device are respectively located on different circuit boards.
