Description

Motorola MVME2700-1251A

Technical Specifications

  • CPU: 233 MHz MPC750 PowerPC.
  • DRAM: 16 MB – 256 MB ECC.
  • Flash: 8 MB onboard + 1 MB socketed.
  • L2 Cache: 1 MB backside.

Functional Features

  • VMEbus Interface: Full system controller with local-VME bidirectional interface.
  • Serial Ports: 2-3 async, 1-2 sync/async.
  • Legacy I/O: PC87308 SIO for keyboard/mouse, floppy, parallel.
  • Data Protection: 8KB NVRAM with battery backup.

Application Scenarios
Process control, robotics, traffic management, power grid monitoring, test & measurement.

Performance Parameters

  • PCI Bus: 32/64-bit local bus with PMC support.
  • Timers: 4x 32-bit programmable + 1x watchdog.
  • DMA: A16/A24/A32, D16/D32/D64 fast DMA.

Material Composition
High-Tg multi-layer PCB with industrial-grade screened components and high-standard soldering.

Structural Characteristics
Front panel: ABORT/RESET buttons, J1 for speaker/remote reset. High-density VME edge connectors.

Working Principle
MPC750 superscalar architecture enables instruction-level parallelism. Falcon chipset manages registers; PC87308 handles low-speed I/O.

Installation Requirements
Ensure chassis grounding. Use transition modules for external connections.

Usage Precautions
Use only certified replacement parts. Exercise caution near CRT/high-voltage circuits. Do not block ventilation during operation.
