Working Principle
The 33 MHz MC68040 utilizes four-way interleaved DRAM to maximize cache burst cycles, while the VMEchip2 ASIC manages high-speed block transfers across the VMEbus.
Installation Requirements
- Requires a robust VME chassis power supply capable of delivering up to 6.5A at +5Vdc. Adequate cooling is mandatory.
Usage Precautions
- Observe strict ESD protocols. Do not slide the board across surfaces. Verify power supply capacity before installation due to higher current draw.
