Overview of the MVME6100

VMEBUS 2ESST Performance

The 2eSST protocol has been around for some time (a draft standard for trial use was released in 1999 and published as an ANSI standard in 2003).

Until now, however, 2eSST boards could not be used on standard VMEbus backplanes because existing VMEbus

Until now, however, 2eSST boards could not be used on standard VMEbus backplanes because existing VMEbus transceivers could not support the required VMEbus 2eSST signal speeds.

Texas Instruments has developed a new VMEbus transceiver that supports the VMEbus signal switching speeds required by the 2eSST protocol.

Texas Instruments’ new VMEbus transceivers, combined with the Tsi148 VMEbus legacy protocol support

enables customers to integrate the MVME6100 series into existing infrastructure, providing backward compatibility that

This protects customer investments in existing VMEbus boards, backplanes, chassis and software.

Balanced performance

The MVME6100 series delivers more than just faster VMEbus transfer rates, it provides balanced performance across the processor, memory subsystem, local bus and I/O subsystems.

Processors run at speeds up to 1.267 GHz, ideal for data-intensive applications.

The state-of-the-art host bridge supports a 133 MHz host bus and a 133 MHz DDR memory bus, a perfect match for the processor.

To ensure that the MVME6100 series can handle the 2eSST data transfer rate of 320MB/s, the

Tsi148 VMEbus interface chip is connected to a 133 MHz PCI-X bus on the host bridge.

The second PCI-X bus has two PMC-X positions, each supporting either PMC or PMC-X cards, and supports PCI bus speeds from 33 to 100 MHz.

The MVME6100 also offers dual Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. www.cniacs.com All of this adds up to a well-balanced, high-performance subsystem that delivers unrivalled performance.

Application Benefits

Defence and Aerospace

In the defence and aerospace market segments, the MVME6100 series is ideally suited to command and control applications using commercial grade products, such as naval bunker systems, fixed ground systems and reconnaissance aircraft systems.

Systems. By using a 1.267GHz processor, the MVME6100 series helps deliver higher performance for these applications than previous VME solutions.

Combined with dual PCI-X buses, the PMC module delivers speeds up to 100 MHz and an 8x increase in VME bandwidth,

eliminating many of the bottlenecks faced by today’s command and control solutions. These applications can now take advantage of the latest PowerPC processors in dense computing configurations.

Now these applications can utilise the latest PowerPC processors in dense computing configurations without the hassle of cooling multi-processor boards, managing I/O and VME bottlenecks.

By adding SMART EC’s Processor PMC (PrPMC), it is possible to, without sacrificing any of the benefits of the MVME6100 series, to

add additional PowerPC architecture compatible processors to the multiprocessor solution without sacrificing any of the benefits of the MVME6100 series.

Function

Power-on reset/front panel reset

System clock and serial clock generator

Bus timeout generator

8 28-pin sockets for EPROM/RAM

Global Interrupter

During normal operation, the MVME-050 provides all the system controller functions required for a VMEbus system.

For time access, the system software reads the time from the time clock. The system software can use two serial ports to connect to a terminal, modem or data link.

Hardcopy output is available through a Centronics-type printer port.

The EPROM/RAM socket can be used as general system memory, or to hold debug and/or diagnostic programs and scratchpad RAM.

In many multiprocessor systems, it is desirable for a process executing on one MPU module to interrupt a process executing on another MPU module.

The Global Interrupter (complete with signaller) provides this global interrupt capability.

Cooling Requirements

Motorola VME modules are specified, designed, and tested to operate with forced air cooling from

Reliable operation over the incoming air temperature range of 0 degrees Celsius to 55 degrees Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit to 131 degrees Fahrenheit).

Temperature qualification was performed in a standard Motorola VMEsystem 1000 chassis.

A 25-watt load board was inserted in two card slots, one on each side, adjacent to the board under test to simulate a high power density system configuration.

Three axial fans, each rated at 100 CFM, were mounted directly below the MVME card box.

The temperature of the incoming airflow was measured between the fan assembly and the card box, where the airflow first encountered the module under test.

The test software is executed when the module is subjected to a change in ambient temperature. The test software is executed when the ambient temperature changes.

Case temperatures of critical high power density integrated circuits are monitored to ensure that component supplier specifications are not exceeded.

While the exact amount of airflow required for cooling depends on the ambient air temperature as well as the type, number, and location of boards and other heat sources.

However, typically as little as 10 CFM of airflow through the module is sufficient for cooling.

In environments with lower maximum ambient temperatures, less airflow is required to cool the module.

Under more favourable thermal conditions, increased airflow will allow the module to operate reliably at ambient temperatures above 55 degrees Celsius.

It is important to note that in addition to the rated CFM of the air pusher, there are several factors that determine the actual amount of air flowing through the module.

Dual IndustryPack logic interface for embedded monitoring and control applications

The MVME162P2 embedded controller provides a powerful and functional processor which can be customer-configured for specific applications.

The MVME162P2 extends its range of solutions by boosting the performance level and increasing the number of options. This flexibility allows a user to configure cost-ffective solutions ranging from embedded controllers to single-board computers. With the compute power of the MC68040 and the flexibility of the IndustryPack mezzanine interface, the MVME162P2 combines the mechanical ruggedness of VME with the cost effectiveness of PC-type products.

The inclusion of the new “Petra” application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), which replaces functions formerly implemented in the IP2 chip and MC2 chip, improves the performance of the memory subsystem. Memory configuration switches enable the customer to tailor memory size for applications requiring smaller memory configurations.

IndustryPack Interface

A key feature of the MVME162P2 is the IndustryPack interface. IndustryPack modules provide a wide variety of connectivity to “real-world” I/O. Expansion is accomplished by 

means of a mezzanine board mounted to the MVME162P2.
