MOTOROLA MVME2600 Single Board Computer

This manual provides general information, hardware preparation

and installation instructions, operating instructions, and a

functional description of the MVME2603/2604 family of Single

Board Computers.

The MVME2603/2604 is a single-slot VMEmodule equipped with a

PowerPCª Series microprocessor. The MVME2603 is equipped

with a PowerPC 603 microprocessor; the MVME2604 has a

PowerPC 604 microprocessor. 256KB L2 cache (level 2 secondary

cache memory) is available as an option on all versions.

The complete MVME2603/2604 consists of the base board plus:

o

An ECC DRAM module (RAM200) for memory

o

An optional PCI mezzanine card (PMC) for additional

versatility

o

An optional carrier board for additional PCI expansion

The block diagram in Figure 1-1 illustrates the architecture of the

MVME2603/2604 base board.

The following equipment is required to complete an MVME2603/

2604 system:

o

VME system enclosure

o

System console terminal

o

Operating system (and/or application software)

o

Disk drives (and/or other I/O) and controllers

o

Transition module (MVME712M or MVME761) and

connecting cables

MVME2603/2604 VMEmodules are factory-configured for I/O

handling via either MVME712M or MVME761 transition modules.

The following table shows the relationship between MVME2603/

2604 model numbers and the applicable transition module.
