Description

The MVME6100 is a single-slot, single-board computer based on the MPC7457 processor, the MV64360 system controller, the Tsi148 VME Bridge ASIC, up to 1 GB of ECC-protected DDR DRAM, up to 128MB of flash memory, and a dual Gigabit Ethernet interface.

Front panel connectors on the MVME6100 board include: two RJ-45 connectors for the Gigabit Ethernet, one RJ-45 connector for the asynchronous serial port with integrated LEDs for BRDFAIL and CPU run indication, and a combined reset and abort switch.

The MVME6100 is shipped with one additional asynchronous serial port routed to an on-board header.

The MVME6100 contains two IEEE1386.1 PCI, PCI-X capable mezzanine card slots. The PMC slots are 64-bit capable and support both front and rear I/O. All I/O pins of PMC slot 1 and 46 I/O pins of PMC slot 2 are routed to the 5-row DIN, P2 connector. I/O pins 1 through 64 from J14 of PMC slot 1 are routed to row C and row A of P2. I/O pins 1 through 46 from J24 of PMC slot 2 are routed to row D and row Z of P2.

The MVME6100 has two planar PCI buses (PCI0 and PCI1). In order to support a more generic PCI bus hierarchy nomenclature, the MV64360 PCI buses will be referred to in this document as PCI bus 0 (root bridge instance 0, bus 0) and PCI bus 1 (root bridge instance 1, bus 0). PCI bus 1 connects to PMC slots 1 and 2 of the board. PCI bus 0 connects to the Tsi148 VME Bridge ASIC and PMCspan bridge (PCI6520). This interface operates at PCI-X (133 MHz) speed. Both PCI planar buses are controlled by the MV64360 system controller.

Voltage Input/Output (VIO) for PCI bus 1 is set by the location of the PMC keying pins; both pins should be set to designate the same VIO, either +3.3V or +5V.

The MVME6100 board interfaces to the VMEbus via the P1 and P2 connectors, which use 5- row 160-pin connectors as specified in the VME64 Extension Standard. It also draws +12V and +5V power from the VMEbus backplane through these two connectors. The +3.3V, +2.5V, +1.8V, and processor core supplies are regulated on-board from the +5V power.
