Board Description and Memory Maps

Functional Description

The MVME2300 series is a family of single-slot VME processor modules. It consists of the MPC603/604 processor, the Raven PCI Bridge and Interrupt Controller, the Falcon ECC Memory Controller chip set, 3MB or 5MB of Flash memory, 16MB to 128MB of ECC-protected DRAM, and a rich set of I/O features.

I/O peripheral devices on the PCI bus are: Ethernet chip, Universe VMEbus interface ASIC, and two PMC slots. Functions provided from the ISA bus are: one asynchronous serial port, a real-time clock, counters/timers, and a software-readable header.

VMEbus Interface

MVME2300 series boards interface to the VMEbus via the P1 and P2 backplane connectors. MVME2300SC boards use the three-row 96-pin connectors specified in the original VMEbus standard; non-SCbus MVME2300 boards use the 5-row 160-pin connectors specified in the VME64 Extension standard.

Both types of boards draw +5V, +12V, and –12V power from the VMEbus backplane through these two connectors. 3.3V and 2.5V supplies are regulated onboard from the +5 power.

Front Panel

Front panel connectors on the non-SCbus MVME2300 series boards include an RJ45 connector for the Ethernet 10BaseT/100BaseTX interface, and a second RJ45 connector for the asynchronous serial debug port.

Front panel connectors on the MVME2300SC include an RJ45 connector for the Ethernet 10BaseT/100BaseTX interface, and a 9-pin DB9 connector for the asynchronous serial debug port.
