General-Purpose Readable Jumpers

Headers J10 (on the MVME2300SC) and J17 (on the MVME2300) provide eight software-readable jumpers. These jumpers can be read as a register at ISA I/O address $801 (hexadecimal). Bit 0 is associated with header pins 1-2; bit 7 is associated with pins 15-16. The bit values are read as a 0 when a jumper is installed, and as a 1 when the jumper is removed. The PowerPC firmware, PPCBug, reserves all bits, SRH0 to SRH7. The board is shipped from the factory with J10 / J17 set to all 0s (jumpers on all pins), as shown in Figure 1-4.

NVRAM/RTC and Watchdog Timer Registers

The M48T59/559 provides the MVME2300 series boards with 8K of non- volatile SRAM, a time-of-day clock, and a watchdog timer. Accesses to the M48T59/559 are accomplished via three registers:

The NVRAM/RTC Address Strobe 0 register
