General

As stated earlier, the MVME5100 is a high-performance VME based

Single Board Computer featuring Motorola’s PowerPlus II architecture4 with a choice of processors. The board can be equipped with either the Motorola MPC7410 processor with AltiVec™ technology for algorithmic intensive computations or with the low-power MPC755 or MPC750 for low-power or field applications.

Designed to meet the needs of OEMs servicing the military and aerospace, industrial automation, and semiconductor process equipment market segments, the MVME5100 is available in both commercial grade (0° to 55° C) and industrial grade (–20° to 71° C) temperatures.

The MVME5100 has two Input/Output (I/O) modes of operation: PMC and SBC (also called 761 mode or IPMC mode). In PMC mode, it is fully backwards compatible with previous generation dual PMC products such as the MVME2300 and MVME2400.

In the SBC mode, the MVME5100 is backwards compatible with the corresponding Motorola MVME712 or MVME761 transition board originated for use with previous generation single-board computer products, such as the MVME2600 and MVME2700.

It is important to note that MVME712 and MVME761 compatibility is accomplished with the addition of the corresponding IPMC712 or IPMC761 (an optional add-on PMC card). The IPMC712 and IPMC761 provides rear I/O support for one single-ended ultra-wide SCSI device, one parallel port, four serial ports (two synchronous for 761 and one for 712, and two asynchronous/synchronous for 761 and three for 712), and I2C functionality through the Hawk ASIC. This multi-function PMC card is offered with the MVME5100 as a factory bundled configuration.
