Description
Motorola MVME162-530
Technical Specifications
- Microprocessor: MC680x0 family processor.
- Onboard Memory: 1MB, 4MB, or 8MB DRAM with parity.
- Integrated I/O: Serial (Z85230), LAN (82596CA), SCSI (53C710).
- Time/Date: MK48T08 battery-backed RAM and clock.
Functional Features
- System Controller: Full VMEbus master and system controller capabilities.
- Data Integrity: Parity protection with bus exception handling.
- Flexible Boot: Supports booting from EPROM, Flash, or network.
Application Scenarios
Ideal for factory automation, telecommunications infrastructure, and military computing.
Performance Parameters
- Memory Access: Requires a minimum of 10 initialization cycles per RAM bank.
- I/O Mapping: Detailed I/O memory maps are programmable via the VMEchip2 and MCchip.
Material Composition
High-quality FR4 PCB with conformal coating options for harsh environments.
Structural Characteristics
Standard 6U VME form factor with front panel ABORT and RESET switches.
Working Principle
Upon local bus reset, the onboard DRAM is disabled and must be programmed via the MCchip before access. The processor then initializes peripherals and loads the OS.
Installation Requirements
Mount securely in a 6U VME chassis. Connect all required front panel I/O cables.
Usage Precautions
Handle the lithium battery with extreme care. Do not charge, deform, or incinerate the battery.
