atasheet MVME2600 Series VME Processor Modules

PMC expansion combined with a high-performance VME processor The MVME2600 series is a family of VME processor modules based on the Motorola PowerPlus VME architecture with PowerPC architecture-compatible microprocessors. The flexibility of the MVME2600 provides an excellent base platform that can be quickly and easily customized for a variety of industry-specific applications. Designed to meet the needs of military and aerospace, industrial automation, and medical imaging market segments, the MVME2600 applies to a variety of applications. DRAM expansion mezzanines enable memory upgrades to the maximum 512MB of ECC DRAM without requiring additional VME slots.

PCI Expansion MVME2600 modules have a 64-bit PCI connection to support PCI expansion carriers such as Motorola PMCspan. Design details for the connector and electrical specifications are available from your local Motorola sales representative.

Memory Modules The MVME2600 series has a modular memory design. Mezzanine arrays support up to 512MB.

Transition Modules Two artwork variants of the MVME2600 are available. One series provides backward compatibility with the MVME712M transition module I/O, while the other series accepts the MVME761 transition module featuring an additional sync/async serial port, a 10/100BaseTX Ethernet interface, Fast 16-bit SCSI, and an IEEE 1284 compatible parallel port

MVME761 The MVME761 transition module provides industry-standard connector access to the IEEE 1284 parallel port, a 10BaseT or 100BaseTX Ethernet port via an RJ-45 connector, two DB-9 connectors providing access to the asynchronous serial ports configured as EIA-574 DTE and two HD-26 connectors providing access to the sync/async serial ports. These serial ports, labeled as Serial 3 and Serial 4 on the face plate of the MVME761, are individually user configurable as EIA-232, EIA-530, V.35, or X.21 DCE/DTE via the installation of Motorola serial interface modules (SIMs).

A P2 adapter provides interface module signals to the MVME761 transition module. The 3-row P2 adapter can be used for 8-bit SCSI. A 5-row P2 adapter supports 16-bit SCSI and PMC I/O.

MVME712M The MVME712M transition module provides industry-standard connector access to the Centronics parallel port, an AUI port and four DB-25 connectors, providing access to the asynchronous/synchronous serial ports jumper configurable as EIA-232 DCE or DTE. A P2 adapter provides interface signals to the MVME712M transition module. The 3-row P2 adapter can be used for 8-bit SCSI. To gain access to the additional user-definable I/O pins provided via the 5-row VME64 extension connector, a special P2 adapter board is available. This adapter panel replaces the traditional 3-row P2 adapter and extends its capability by providing access to the PMC I/O pins. Several other variations of the MVME712M are available for combinations of I/O and connectors

Firmware Monitor 

 Firmware must fulfill the traditional functions of test and initialization, in addition to operating system boot support. The MVME2600 firmware monitor exceeds these requirements with a proven monitor from the embedded VME leader. It expands features like power-up tests with extensive diagnostics, as well as a powerful evaluation and debug tool for simple checkout or when high-level development debuggers require additional support. All this is included with the MVME2600 firmware, plus it supports booting both operating systems and kernels。
