These switches control the configuration of the MVME2500.
Board Malfunction
Switches marked as “reserved” might carry production-related functions and can cause
the board to malfunction if their settings are changed.
Do not change settings of switches marked as “reserved”. The setting of switches which
are not marked as “reserved” has to be checked and changed before board installation.
3.5.1 Geographical Address Switch (S1)
The Tsi148 VMEbus Status Register provides the VMEbus geographical address of the
MVM2500. The switch reflects the inverted states of the geographical address signals.
Applications not using the five row backplane can use the geographical address switch to
assign a geographical address based on the following diagram.

Functional Description
4.6 SPI Bus Interface
The enhanced serial peripheral interface (eSPI) allows the device to exchange data with
peripheral devices such as EEPROMs, RTC, Flash and the like. The eSPI is a full-duplex
synchronous, character-oriented channel that supports a simple interface such as receive,
transmit, clock and chip selects. The eSPI receiver and transmitter each have a FIFO of 32 Bytes.
The P20x0 supports up to four chip selects and RapidS full clock cycle operation. It can operate
both full-duplex and half duplex. It works with a range of 4-bit to 16-bit data characters and is
a single-master environment. The MVME2500 is configured such that the eSPI can operate up
to 200 MHz clock rate and can support booting process.The firmware boot flash resides in the
P20x0 eSPI bus interface.
4.6.1 SPI Flash Memory
The MVME2500 has two 8 MB on-board serial flash. Both contain the ENV variables and the UBoot firmware image, which is about 513 KB in size. Both SPI flash contain the same
programming for firmware redundancy and crisis recovery. The SPI flash is programmed
through the JTAG interface or through an on-board SPI flash programming header.
For information on U-boot and ENV Variables location see, Flash Memory Map, Table 5-2 on
page 102.
4.6.2 SPI Flash Programming
The MVME2500 has three headers: a 10-pin header for SPI Flash programming, an 80-pin
header for the JTAG connectivity, and a 20-pin JTAG header for ASSET hardware connectivity.
The following options are used to program the on-board flash:
Using on-board SPI header - The MVME2500 uses the 10-pin header with a dual SPI Flash
in-circuit programming configuration. The pin connection is compatible with DediProg
SPI Universal Pin Header.
Using 60-pin external JTAG header - An external JTAG board with a JTAG multiplexer is
compatible with the MVME2500 and is attached using an external cable. It is used to
update the boot loader in the field. Using this method, programming is done through the
JTAG interface or by using the dedicated SPI Flash programming header on the JTAG board.
84
MVME2500 Installation and Use (6806800L01L)
Page 85
Factory Pre-Programming the SPI Flash usually takes a while. Ideally, the SPI Flash should
be pre-programmed in the factory before shipment.
ICT Programming - This programming is done on exposed test points using a bed of nails
tester.
The board power should be switched on before programming. The switch S2-8 should also be
powered on to successfully detect the SPI Flash chip.
4.6.3 Firmware Redundancy
The MVME2500 uses two physically separate boot devices to provide boot firmware
redundancy. Although the P20x0 provides four SPI Bus chip selects, the P20x0 is only capable
of booting from the SPI Device controlled by Chip Select 0. External SPI multiplexing logic is
implemented on the MVME2500 to accommodate this chipset limitation.
Functional Description
MVME2500 Installation and Use (6806800L01L)
85
Page 86
Functional Description
The MVME2500 FPGA controls the chip select to SPI devices A and B. The FPGA chip select
control is based on the Switch Bank (S2-2).
Figure 4-2 SPI Device Multiplexing Logic
86
At power-up, the selection of the SPI boot device is strictly based upon the Switch Bank (S2-2)
setting. Depending on the S2-2 setting, SPI_SEL0 is routed to one of two SPI devices. The
selected SPI device must contain a boot image. Once the boot image is copied into memory
and executed, the FPGA will wait and once the P20x0 will write on one bit of the FPGA
watchdog register, the FPGA will then pass through the SPI chip select from the P20x0 to SPI
device chip selects. The software can now perform read/write processes on any SPI device,
including copying from one SPI device to another.
With this flexible approach to firmware redundancy, one should always be able to recover from
a corrupt active firmware image, as long as a healthy firmware image is maintained in single
bootable SPI Device.
MVME2500 Installation and Use (6806800L01L)
Page 87
The MVME2500 supports automatic switch over. If booting one device is not successful, the
watchdog will trigger the board reset and it will automatically boot on the other device.
4.6.4 Crisis Recovery
The MVME2500 provides an independent boot firmware recovery mechanism for the
operating system. The firmware recovery can be performed without leaving the firmware
environment.
During crisis recovery, the healthy boot image contained in SPI Device B is copied to SPI Device
A, replacing the corrupt boot image contained in SPI Device A.
Crisis recovery is performed as follows:
1. Power off the board.
2. Set Switch S2-2 to "ON" to point to SPI Device B (crisis image).
3. Power on the board.
Functional Description
4. Press <h> key on the keyboard to go to the U-Boot prompt.
5. Type "moninit fru" to copy the crisis image to SPI Device A.
6. Once the U-Boot prompt is visible, power off the board.
7. Set the S2-2 back to "OFF" to point to the SPI Device A.
8. Power on the board to boot from the newly recovered image on the SPI Device A.
The board will automatically switch over if one of the devices is corrupted.
4.7 Front UART Control
The MVME2500 utilizes one of the two UART functions provided in the male micro-mini DB-9
front panel. A male-to-male micro-mini DB-9 to DB9 adapter cable is available under Artesyn
Part Number SERIAL-MINI-D (30-W2400E01A) and is approximately 12 inches in length.
MVME2500 Installation and Use (6806800L01L)
87
Page 88
Functional Description
Only 115200 bps and 9600 bps are supported. The default baud rate on the front panel serial
is 9600 kbps.
4.8 Rear UART Control
The MVME2500 utilizes the Exar ST16C554 quad UART (QUART) to provide four additional
ports to the RTM. These devices feature 16 bytes of transmit and receive first-in first-out (FIFO)
with selectable receive FIFO trigger levels and data rates of up to 1.5 Mbps. Each UART has a set
of registers that provide the user with operating status and control. The QUART are 8-bit
devices connected to the processor through the local bus controller using LBC chipset CS1,
CS2, CS3 and CS4.
These four serial interfaces are routed to P2 I/O for RTM accessibility. There are a total of five
serial ports available on the MVME2500.
4.9 PMC/XMC Sites
The MVME2500 hosts only one PMC/XMC site and accepts either a PMC or an XMC add-on
card. Only an XMC or a PMC may be populated at any given time as both occupy the same
physical space on the PCB. Combination PMC/XM cards are not supported by the MVME2500.
The site provides a rear PMC I/O.
The PMC site is fully compliant with the following:
1. VITA 39 –PCI-X for PMC
2. VITA 35-2000 for PMC P4 to VME P2 Connection
3. PCI Rev 2.2 for PCI Local Bus Specification.
4. PCI-X PT 2.0 for PCI-X Protocol Addendum to the PCI Local Bus Specs.
5. IEEE Standard P1386-2001 for Standard for Common Mezzanine Card Family
6. IEEE Standard P1386.1-2001 for Standard Physical and Environmental Layer for PCI
Mezzanine Card.
7. VITA 42 for XMC
8. VITA 42.3, PCIe for XMC
88
MVME2500 Installation and Use (6806800L01L)
Page 89
Functional Description
PMC/XMC sites are keyed for 3.3V PMC signaling. The PMC and the XMC add-on cards must
have a hole in the 3.3 V PMC keying position in order to be populated on the MVME2500. The
XMC specification accommodates this since it is expected that carrier cards will host both XMC
and PMC capable add-on cards.
The MVME2500 have a keying pin at the 3.3V location at the PMC site. The MVME2500 boards
are not 5 volt PMC IO compatible. The MVME2500 also has a 5 volt keying pin location at the
PMC site used to mount the SATA adapter card.
The MVME2500 utilizes the P20x0 x2 link PCI Express interface. It is designed such that the
same PCI-E interface is used for either PMC or XMC through Pericom’s PI2PCIE2412. It is PCI-E
Gen2 compliant with four differential channel input and 2:1 MUX switch with single enable. The
enable pin is controlled by FPGA through on-board switch.
The on-board switch S2-4 determines the direction of the PCI-E MUX switch. The default
setting "OFF" routes the differential lines to the PMC. Otherwise, it is routed to the XMC
connector.
4.9.1 PMC Add-on Card
The MVME2500 PMC interface utilizes IDT’s TSI384 as the PCie/PCI-X bridge. It can support up
to 8.5 Gbps (64 bits x 133 MHz). The on-board switch S2-5 configures the TSI384 to run on
either 100 MHz or 133 MHz, with 133 MHz as default.
The MVME2500 supports multi-function PMCs and processor PMCs (PrPMCs). The PMC site
has two IDSELs, two REQ/GNT pairs, and EREADY to support PrPMC as defined by VITA39.
4.9.2 XMC Add-on Card
The x2 links the PCI-E Gen 1 and is directly routed to the P15 XM connector through Pericom
MUX Switch. The on-board switch S2-4 should be set to "ON".
The XMC add-on cards are required to operate at +5V or +12V (from carrier to XMC). The
MVME2500 provides +5V to the XMC VPWR (Variable Power) pins. The MVME2500 does not
provide +12V to the XMC VPWR pins. Voltage tolerances for VPWR and all carrier supplied
voltage (+3.3 V, +12 V, -12 V) are defined by the base XMC standard.

Gbps (SATA Gen 1). For status indicators, it has an on-board green LED, D12 and D13 for SATA
link and SATA activity status respectively.
4.11 VME Support
The MVME2500 can operate in either System Controller (SCON) mode or non-SCON mode, as
determined by the switch setting of S1-1 and S1-2.
The P20x0 x1 link is used for the VME backplane connectivity through the Tsi384 (PCI-E/PCI-X)
and Tsi148 (PCI-X/VMEBus) bridges.
See VMEBus P1 Connector, on page 56 and VMEBus P2 Connector, on page 58 for more
information.
4.11.1 Tsi148 VME Controller
The VMEbus interface for the MVME2500 is provided by the Tsi148 VMEbus controller. The
Tsi148 provides the required VME, VME extensions, and 2eSST functions. TI
SN74VMEH22501transceivers are used to buffer the VME signals between the Tsi148 and the
VME backplane. Refer to the Tsi148 user's manual, for additional details and/or programming
information.

4.20.2 JTAG Chain and Board
The MVME2500 is designed to work with separate JTAG board rather than with an on-board
JTAG multiplexer. The chip can support up to a 6-scan port and the board’s boundary scan
requires the following to function: ASSET hardware, JTAG board, and JTAG cable. The
MVME2500 provides a 60-pin header that can connect to the JTAG board using a custom cable.
The JTAG board provides three different connectors for the ASSET hardware, flash
programming and the MVME2500 JTAG connector. The board is equipped with TTL buffers to
help improve the signal quality as it traverses over the wires.

4.21 Rear Transition Module (RTM)
The MVME2500 is compatible with the MVME721x RTM.
The MVME721X RTM is for I/O routing through the rear of a compact VMEbus chassis. It
connects directly to the VME backplane in chassis with an 80 mm deep rear transition area. The
MVME721X RTM is designed for use with the MVME7100, MVME2500, iVME7210, and MVME
4100. It has the following features:
