Advantages

The MVME162 family provides OEMs and solutions developers an ideal platform for embedded monitoring and control applications. It allows an OEM to minimize engineering expenses while integrating value-added hardware and software applications onto an off-the-shelf product.

In order to provide this wide range of solutions, the MVME162 allows a variety of MPU, memory, and interface options such as floating-point, Ethernet, SCSI, and VME. The result is a variation of the MVME162 which most closely fits the application requirement.

Microprocessor Options

The MVME162 provides scalability by allowing several types of MPU options. Features such as clock speed and floating point capability can be user specified.

VMEbus Interface

The VMEbus Interface ASIC includes a local bus to/from VMEbus DMA controller, VME board support features, as well as Global Control and Status Register (GCSR) for microprocessor communications. The device also supports the VME D64 specification further enhancing system performance.

Notes

  1. Back-to-back cycles for a local bus master which is accessing a memory or I/O space location on an IndustryPack; assumes a zero wait state acknowledge reply from the IndustryPack.
  2. DMA burst cycles between a local bus slave and a memory or I/O space location on an IndustryPack; assumes a zero wait state acknowledge reply from the IndustryPack.
  3. DMA single cycles between a local bus slave and a memory or I/O space location on an IndustryPack; assumes a zero wait state acknowledge reply from the IndustryPack.
  4. Burst modes DMA is not supported when both bus frequencies are 32 MHz.
  5. Because the specified band width assumes a zero wait state IndustryPack cycle, it would be difficult to achieve the stated bandwidths for an IP bus frequency of 32 MHz.

 

IndustryPack Interface

A key feature of the MVME162 is the IndustryPack logic interface. This interface provides a 32-bit data path for the IndustryPack modules to the local MC68040 bus. IndustryPack modules provide a wide variety of connections to "real-world" applications such as I/O, control, interface, analog and digital functions. Up to four single-wide or two double-wide IndustryPack modules can be installed on the MVME162 and still occupy only one VME slot. As I/O needs change, a new IndustryPack module can be installed thus preserving the customer’s overall investment.

Memory Expansion

The MVME162 is offered with 4MB of on-board DRAM. These versions can be expanded up to 16MB by using customer-installable memory modules.

Transition Modules

Optional MVME712 Series Transition Modules are available to support the use of standard I/O connections for the MVME162 Series. These modules take the I/O connections for the peripherals on board the MVME162 Series from the P2 connection of the module to a transition module that has industry standard connections.

Software Support

The MVME162 is supported by a wide range of real-time kernels and embedded operating systems.
