MOTOROLA MVME7100 Series Single-Board Computer

MOTOROLA MVME7100 Series Single-Board Computer

DESCRIPTION

The SMART Embedded Computing MVME7100, featuring the system-on-chip MPC864xD processor, offers a growth path for VMEbus customers with applications on the previous generation of VME, specifically the MPC74xx processors. The system-on-chip implementation offers power/thermal, reliability, and lifecycle advantages not typically found in alternative architectures.

The SMART EC MVME7100 single-board computer (SBC) helps OEMs of industrial, medical, and defense/aerospace equipment add performance and features for competitive advantage while still protecting the fundamental investment in VMEbus and related technologies. Customers can keep their VMEbus infrastructure (chassis, backplanes, and other VMEbus and PMC boards) while improving performance and extending the lifecycle. Also, the extended lifecycle of SMART EC computing products helps reduce churns in development and support efforts resulting from frequent product changes.

FEATURES

ƒ Up to 1.3GHz system-on-chip NXP MPC864xD with dual PowerPC® e600 processor cores, dual integrated memory controllers, DMA engine, PCI Express interface, Ethernet, and local I/O 

ƒ Extended temperature (-40 °C to +71 °C) and rugged board variants available 

ƒ Four Gigabit Ethernet ports 

ƒ Up to 2GB of DDR2 ECC memory, 128MB NOR flash and 2GB, 4GB or 8GB NAND flash 

ƒ USB 2.0 controller for integrating cost-effective peripherals (commercial temperature only) 

ƒ 2eSST VMEbus protocol with 20MB/s transfer rate across the VMEbus 

ƒ Dual 33/66/100 MHz PMC-X sites for expansion via industry standard modules with support for processor PMCs 

ƒ 8x PCI Express expansion connector for PMC-X and XMC expansion using SMART EC XMCspan 

ƒ MVME7216E direct-connect rear transition module (RTM) for I/O routing through rear of a VMEbus chassis

BALANCED PERFORMANCE

The MVME7100 series provides more than just faster VMEbus transfer rates; it provides balanced performance from the processor, memory subsystem, local busses and I/O subsystems. This coupled with a wealth of I/O interfaces make the MVME7100 series ideal for use as an application-specific compute blade, or an intelligent I/O blade/carrier. The NXP MPC864xD system-onchip (SoC) processor, running at speeds up to 1.3GHz, is well-suited for I/O and data-intensive applications. The integrated SoC design creates an I/O intensive state-of-the-art package that combines dual low power processing cores with on-chip L2 cache and dual integrated DDR2 memory controllers, PCI Express, DMA , Ethernet and local device I/O. The on-chip PCI Express interface and dual DDR2 memory busses are well matched to the processor. To ensure optimal I/O performance, the 8x PCI Express port is connected to a five-port PCI Express switch. Three 4x PCI Express ports are connected to PCI Express-to-PCI-X bridges which provide independent PCI-X busses for the two PMC-X sites and VME bus interface. A 1x PCI Express port is connected to a PCI Express-toPCI bridge which is connected to the USB chip (commercial temperature only). The MVME7100 also offers quad Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, USB 2.0, and five (5) RS-232 serial connections. All of this adds up to a set of well-balanced, high-performance subsystems offering unparalleled performance.
