1.4.4 PMC I/O Voltage Configuration

The onboard PMC sites may be configured to support 3.3V or 5.0V I/O PMC modules. To support 3.3V or 5.0V I/O PMC modules, both PMC I/O keying pins must be installed in the holes. If both keying pins are not in the same location or if the keying pins are not installed, the PMC sites will not function. Note that setting the PMC I/O voltage to 5.0V forces the PMC sites to operate in PCI mode instead of PCI-X mode. The default factory configuration is for 3.3V PMC I/O voltage.

1.4.5 RTM SEEPROM Address Switch (S1)

A 4-position SMT configuration switch is located on the RTM to set the device address of the RTM serial EEPROM device. The switch settings are defined in the following table.

2.3 Switches and Indicators

The MVME3100 board provides a single push button switch that provides both abort and reset (ABT/RST) functions. When the switch is pressed for less than five seconds, an abort interrupt is generated to the processor. If the switch is held for more than five seconds, a board hard reset is generated. The board hard reset will reset the MPC8540, local PCI/PCI-X buses, Ethernet PHYs, serial ports, Flash devices, and PLD(s). If the MVME3100 is configured as the VME system controller, the VME bus and local TSi148 reset input are also reset.
The MVME3100 has four front-panel indicators. The following table describes these indicators:

MOTLoad Firmware

3.1 Overview

The MOTLoad firmware package serves as a board power-up and initialization package, as well as a vehicle from which user applications can be booted. A secondary function of the MOTLoad firmware is to serve in some respects as a test suite providing individual tests for certain devices. This chapter includes a list of standard MOTLoad commands, the default VME and firmware settings that are changeable by the user, remote start, and the alternate boot procedure.
MOTLoad is controlled through an easy-to-use, UNIX-like, command line interface. The MOTLoad software package is similar to many end-user applications designed for the embedded market, such as the real time operating systems currently available.
Refer to the MOTLoad Firmware Package User’s Manual, listed in Appendix B, Related
Documentation, for more details.
Chapter 3

3.2 Implementation and Memory Requirements

The implementation of MOTLoad and its memory requirements are product specific. The MVME3100 Single Board Computer (SBC) is offered with a wide range of memory (for example, DRAM, external cache, flash). Typically, the smallest amount of on-board DRAM that an Emerson SBC has is 32 MB. Each supported product line has its own unique MOTLoad binary image(s). Currently the largest MOTLoad compressed image is less than 1 MB in size.

3.3 MOTLoad Commands

MOTLoad supports two types of commands (applications): utilities and tests. Both types of commands are invoked from the MOTLoad command line in a similar fashion. Beyond that, MOTLoad utilities and MOTLoad tests are distinctly different.

3.3.1 Utilities

The definition of a MOTLoad utility application is very broad. Simply stated, it is considered a MOTLoad command, if it is not a MOTLoad test. Typically, MOTLoad utility applications are applications that aid the user in some way (that is, they do something useful). From the perspective of MOTLoad, examples of utility applications are: configuration, data/status displays, data manipulation, help routines, data/status monitors, etc.
MVME3100 Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800M28C)
41
MOTLoad Firmware
Operationally, MOTLoad utility applications differ from MOTLoad test applications in several ways:
z Only one utility application operates at any given time (that is, multiple utility applications
cannot be executing concurrently)
z Utility applications may interact with the user. Most test applications do not.

3.3.2 Tests

A MOTLoad test application determines whether or not the hardware meets a given standard. Test applications are validation tests. Validation is conformance to a specification. Most MOTLoad tests are designed to directly validate the functionality of a specific SBC subsystem or component. These tests validate the operation of such SBC modules as: dynamic memory, external cache, NVRAM, real time clock, etc.
All MOTLoad tests are designed to validate functionality with minimum user interaction. Once launched, most MOTLoad tests operate automatically without any user interaction. There are a few tests where the functionality being validated requires user interaction (that is, switch tests, interactive plug-in hardware modules, etc.). Most MOTLoad test results (error­data/status-data) are logged, not printed. All MOTLoad tests/commands have complete and separate descriptions (refer to the MOTLoad Firmware Package User’s Manual for this information).
All devices that are available to MOTLoad for validation/verification testing are represented by a unique device path string. Most MOTLoad tests require the operator to specify a test device at the MOTLoad command line when invoking the test.
A listing of all device path strings can be displayed through the devShow command. If an SBC device does not have a device path string, it is not supported by MOTLoad and can not be directly tested. There are a few exceptions to the device path string requirement, like testing RAM, which is not considered a true device and can be directly tested without a device path string. Refer to the devShow command description page in the MOTLoad Firmware Package User’s Manual.

Most MOTLoad tests can be organized to execute as a group of related tests (a testSuite) through the use of the testSuite command. The expert operator can customize their testing by defining and creating a custom testSuite(s). The list of built-in and user-defined MOTLoad testSuites, and their test contents, can be obtained by entering testSuite -d at the MOTLoad prompt. All testSuites that are included as part of a product specific MOTLoad firmware package are product specific. For more information, refer to the testSuite command description page in the MOTLoad Firmware Package User’s Manual.
Test results and test status are obtained through the testStatus, errorDisplay, and taskActive commands. Refer to the appropriate command description page in the MOTLoad Firmware Package User’s Manual for more information.

3.4 Using the Command Line Interface

Interaction with MOTLoad is performed via a command line interface through a serial port on the SBC, which is connected to a terminal or terminal emulator (for example, Window’s Hypercomm). The default MOTLoad serial port settings are: 9600 baud, 8 bits, no parity.
The MOTLoad command line interface is similar to a UNIX command line shell interface. Commands are initiated by entering a valid MOTLoad command (a text string) at the MOTLoad command line prompt and pressing the carriage-return key to signify the end of input. MOTLoad then performs the specified action. An example of a MOTLoad command line prompt is shown below. The MOTLoad prompt changes according to what product it is used on (for example, MVME5500, MVME6100, MVME3100).
Example:
MVME3100>
If an invalid MOTLoad command is entered at the MOTLoad command line prompt, MOTLoad displays a message that the command was not found.
Example:
48
MVME3100 Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800M28C)
MOTLoad Firmware
MVME3100> mytest
"mytest" not found MVME3100>
If the user enters a partial MOTLoad command string that can be resolved to a unique valid MOTLoad command and presses the carriage-return key, the command will be executed as if the entire command string had been entered. This feature is a user-input shortcut that minimizes the required amount of command line input. MOTLoad is an ever changing firmware package, so user-input shortcuts may change as command additions are made.
Example:
MVME3100> version
Copyright: Motorola Inc.1999-2002, All Rights Reserved MOTLoad RTOS Version 2.0 PAL Version 0.1 (Motorola MVME3100)
Example:
MVME3100> ver
Copyright: Motorola Inc. 1999-2002, All Rights Reserved MOTLoad RTOS Version 2.0 PAL Version 0.1 (Motorola MVME3100)
If the partial command string cannot be resolved to a single unique command, MOTLoad will inform the user that the command was ambiguous.
Example:
MVME3100> te
"te" ambiguous MVME3100>

3.4.1 Command Line Rules

There are a few things to remember when entering a MOTLoad command:
z Multiple commands are permitted on a single command line, provided they are separated
by a single semicolon (;)
z Spaces separate the various fields on the command line (command/arguments/options)
z The argument/option identifier character is always preceded by a hyphen (-) character
z Options are identified by a single character
z Option arguments immediately follow (no spaces) the option
z All commands, command options, and device tree strings are case sensitive
Example:
MVME3100> flashProgram –d/dev/flash0 –n00100000
For more information on MOTLoad operation and function, refer to the MOTLoad Firmware Package User’s Manual.

3.4.2 Command Line Help

Each MOTLoad firmware package has an extensive, product-specific help facility that can be accessed through the help command. The user can enter help at the MOTLoad command line to display a complete listing of all available tests and utilities.
Example
MVME3100> help
For help with a specific test or utility the user can enter the following at the MOTLoad prompt:
help <command_name>
The help command also supports a limited form of pattern matching. Refer to the help command page.
Example

3.5 Firmware Settings

The following sections provide additional information pertaining to the VME firmware settings of the MVME3100. A few VME settings are controlled by hardware jumpers while the majority of the VME settings are managed by the firmware command utility vmeCfg.

3.5.1 Default VME Settings

As shipped from the factory, the MVME3100 has the following VME configuration programmed via Global Environment Variables (GEVs) for the Tsi148 VME controller. The firmware allows certain VME settings to be changed in order for the user to customize the environment. The following is a description of the default VME settings that are changeable by the user. For more information, refer to the MOTLoad User’s Manual and Tundra’s Tsi148 User Manual, listed in Appendix B, Related Documentation.

The window accepts transfers on the PCI-X Local Bus from 0xB1000000-0xB1FF0000 and translates them onto the VMEbus using an offset of 0x4F000000, thus an access to 0xB1000000 on the PCI-X Local Bus becomes an access to 0x00000000 on the VMEbus.

3.5.2 Control Register/Control Status Register Settings

The CR/CSR base address is initialized to the appropriate setting based on the Geographical address; that is, the VME slot number. See the VME64 Specification and the VME64 Extensions for details. As a result, a 512K byte CR/CSR area can be accessed from the VMEbus using the CR/CSR AM code.

3.6 Remote Start

As described in the MOTLoad Firmware Package User's Manual, listed in Appendix B, Related
Documentation, remote start allows the user to obtain information about the target board,
download code and/or data, modify memory on the target, and execute a downloaded program. These transactions occur across the VMEbus in the case of the MVME3100. MOTLoad uses one of four mailboxes in the Tsi148 VME controller as the inter-board communication address (IBCA) between the host and the target.
CR/CSR slave addresses configured by MOTLoad are assigned according to the installation slot in the backplane, as indicated by the VME64 Specification. For reference, the following values are provided:
Slot Position CS/CSR Starting Address
1 0x0008.0000
2 0x0010.0000
3 0x0018.0000
4 0x0020.0000
5 0x0028.0000
6 0x0030.0000
7 0x0038.0000
8 0x0040.0000
9 0x0048.0000
A 0x0050.0000
B 0x0058.0000
C 0x0060.0000
For further details on CR/CSR space, please refer to the VME64 Specification, listed in Appendix
B, Related Documentation.
The MVME3100 uses a Discovery II for its VME bridge. The offsets of the mailboxes in the Discovery II are defined in the Discovery II User Manual, listed in Appendix B, Related
Documentation, but are noted here for reference:
58
MVME3100 Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800M28C)
MOTLoad Firmware
Mailbox 0 is at offset 7f348 in the CR/CSR space Mailbox 1 is at offset 7f34C in the CR/CSR space Mailbox 2 is at offset 7f350 in the CR/CSR space Mailbox 3 is at offset 7f354 in the CR/CSR space
The selection of the mailbox used by remote start on an individual MVME3100 is determined by the setting of a global environment variable (GEV). The default mailbox is zero. Another GEV controls whether remote start is enabled (default) or disabled. Refer to the Remote Start appendix in the MOTLoad Firmware Package User's Manual for remote start GEV definitions.
The MVME3100’s IBCA needs to be mapped appropriately through the master’s VMEbus bridge. For example, to use remote start using mailbox 0 on an MVME3100 installed in slot 5, the master would need a mapping to support reads and writes of address 0x002ff348 in VME CR/CSR space (0x280000 + 0x7f348).

3.7 Alternate Boot Images and Safe Start

Some later versions of MOTLoad support Alternate Boot Images and a Safe Start recovery procedure. If Safe Start is available on the MVME3100, Alternate Boot Images are supported. With Alternate Boot Image support, the bootloader code in the boot block examines the upper 8MB of the flash bank for Alternate Boot images. If an image is found, control is passed to the image.

3.8 Firmware Startup Sequence Following Reset

The firmware startup sequence following reset of MOTLoad is to:
z Initialize cache, MMU, FPU, and other CPU internal items
z Initialize the memory controller
z Search the active flash bank, possibly interactively, for a valid POST image. If found, the
POST images executes. Once completed, the POST image returns and startup continues.
z Search the active flash bank, possibly interactively, for a valid USER boot image. If found,
the USER boot image executes. A return to the boot block code is not anticipated.
MVME3100 Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800M28C)
59
MOTLoad Firmware
z If a valid USER boot image is not found, search the active flash bank, possibly interactively,
for a valid MCG boot image; anticipated to be upgrade of MCG firmware. If found, the image is executed. A return to the boot block code is not anticipated.
z Execute the recovery image of the firmware in the boot block if no valid USER or MCG
image is found
During startup, interactive mode may be entered by either setting the Safe Start jumper/switch or by sending an <ESC> to the console serial port within five seconds of the board reset. During interactive mode, the user has the option to display locations at which valid boot images were discovered, specify which discovered image is to be executed, or specify that the recovery image in the boot block of the active Flash bank is to be executed.

3.9 Firmware Scan for Boot Image

The scan is performed by examining each 1MB boundary for a defined set of flags that identify th e im age as bei ng P ower O n Se lf Tes t (PO ST) , US ER, or M CG. MOTLo ad i s an MCG ima ge. PO ST is a user-developed Power On Self Test that would perform a set of diagnostics and then return to the bootloader image. User would be a boot image, such as the VxWorks bootrom, which would perform board initialization. A bootable VxWorks kernel would also be a USER image. Boot images are not restricted to being MB or less in size; however, they must begin on a 1MB boundary within the 8MB of the scanned flash bank. The Flash Bank Structure is shown below:
Address Usage
0xFFF00000 to 0xFFFFFFFF Boot block. Recovery code
0xFFE00000 to 0XFFFFFFFF Reserved for MCG use.
(MOTLoad update image)
0xFFD00000 to 0xFFDFFFFF (FBD00000 or F7D00000)
0xFFC00000 to 0xFFCFFFFF (FBC00000 or F7C00000)
.... Alternate boot images
0xFF899999 to 0xFF8FFFFF (Fb800000 or F3800000)
First possible alternate image (Bank B / Bank A actual)
Second possible alternate image (Bank B / Bank A actual)
Last possible alternate image (Bank B / Bank A actual)
60
MVME3100 Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800M28C)
MOTLoad Firmware
The scan is performed downwards from boot block image and searches first for POST, then USER, and finally MCG images. In the case of multiple images of the same type, control is passed to the first image encountered in the scan.
Safe Start, whether invoked by hitting ESC on the console within the first five seconds following power-on reset or by setting the Safe Start jumper, interrupts the scan process. The user may then display the available boot images and select the desired image. The feature is provided to enable recovery in cases when the programmed Alternate Boot Image is no longer desired.

3.10 Boot Images

Valid boot images whether POST, USER, or MCG, are located on 1MB boundaries within flash. The image may exceed 1MB in size. An image is determined valid through the presence of two "valid image keys" and other sanity checks. A valid boot image begins with a structure as defined in the following table:
Name Type Size Notes
UserDefined unsigned integer 8 User defined
ImageKey 1 unsigned integer 1 0x414c5420
ImageKey 2 unsigned integer 1 0x424f4f54
ImageChecksum unsigned integer 1 Image checksum
ImageSize unsigned integer 1 Must be a multiple of 4
ImageName unsigned character 32 User defined
ImageRamAddress unsigned integer 1 RAM address
ImageOffset unsigned integer 1 Offset from header start to entry
ImageFlags unsigned integer 1 Refer to Image Flags on page 63
ImageVersion unsigned integer 1 User defined
Reserved unsigned integer 8 Reserved for expansion

3.10.1 Checksum Algorithm

The checksum algorithm is a simple unsigned word add of each word (4 byte) location in the image. The image must be a multiple of 4 bytes in length (word-aligned). The content of the checksum location in the header is not part of the checksum calculation. The calculation assumes the location to be zero. The algorithm is implemented using the following code:
Unsigned int checksum(
Unsigned int *startPtr,/* starting address */ Unsigned int endPtr/* ending address */
) { unsigned int checksum=0; while (startPtr < endPtr) {
checksum += *startPtr;
62
MVME3100 Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800M28C)
MOTLoad Firmware
startPtr++; } return(checksum); }

3.10.2 Image Flags

The image flags of the header define various bit options that control how the image will be executed.
Table 3-2 MOTLoad Image Flags
Name Value Interpretation
COPY_TO_RAM 0x00000001 Copy image to RAM at
ImageRamAddress before execution
IMAGE_MCG 0x00000002 MCG-specific image
IMAGE_POST 0x00000004 POST image
DONT_AUTO_RUN 0x00000008 Image not to be executed
z COPY_TO_RAM
If set, this flag indicates that the image is to be copied to RAM at the address specified in the header before control is passed. If not set, the image will be executed in flash. In both instances, control will be passed at the image offset specified in the header from the base of the image.
z IMAGE_MCG
If set, this flag defines the image as being an Alternate MOTLoad, as opposed to USER, image. This bit should not be set by developers of alternate boot images.
z IMAGE_POST
If set, this flag defines the image as being a power-on self-test image. This bit flag is used to indicate that the image is a diagnostic and should be run prior to running either USER or MCG boot images. POST images are expected, but not required, to return to the boot block code upon completion.
MVME3100 Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800M28C)
63
MOTLoad Firmware
z DONT_AUTO_RUN
If set, this flag indicates that the image is not to be selected for automatic execution. A user, through the interactive command facility, may specify the image to be executed.
MOTLoad currently uses an Image Flag value of 0x3, which identifies itself as an Alternate MOTLoad image that executes from RAM. MOTLoad currently does not support execution from flash.

3.10.3 User Images

These images are user-developer boot code; for example, a VxWorks bootrom image. Such images may expect the system software state to be as follows upon entry:
z The MMU is disabled.
z L1 instruction cache has been initialized and is enabled.
z L1 data cache has been initialized (invalidated) and is disabled.
z L2 cache is disabled.
z L3 cache is disabled.
z RAM has been initialized and is mapped starting at CPU address 0.
z If RAM ECC or parity is supported, RAM has been scrubbed of ECC or parity errors.
z The active Flash bank (boot) is mapped from the upper end of the address space.
z If specified by COPY_TO_RAM, the image has been copied to RAM at the address specified
by ImageRamAddress.
z CPU register R1 (the stack pointer) has been initialized to a value near the end of RAM.
z CPU register R3 is added to the following structure:
typedef struct altBootData {
unsigned int ramSize;/* board's RAM size in MB */
void flashPtr;/* ptr to this image in flash */
char boardType[16];/* name string, eg MVME3100 */
void globalData;/* 16K, zeroed, user defined */
unsigned int reserved[12]; } altBootData_t;
64
MVME3100 Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800M28C)
MOTLoad Firmware

3.10.4 Alternate Boot Data Structure

The globalData field of the alternate boot data structure points to an area of RAM which was initialized to zeroes by the boot loader. This area of RAM is not cleared by the boot loader after execution of a POST image, or other alternate boot image, is executed. It is intended to provide a user a mechanism to pass POST image results to subsequent boot images.
The boot loader performs no other initialization of the board than that specified prior to the transfer of control to either a POST, USER, or MCG image. Alternate boot images need to initialize the board to whatever state the image may further require for its execution.
POST images are expected, but not required, to return to the boot loader. Upon return, the boot loader proceeds with the scan for an executable alternate boot image. POST images that return control to the boot loader must ensure that upon return, the state of the board is consistent with the state that the board was in at POST entry. USER images should not return control to the boot loader.

3.10.5 Alternate Boot Images and Safe Start

Some later versions of MOTLoad support alternate boot images and a safe start recovery procedure. If safe start is available on the MVME3100, alternate boot images are supported. With alternate boot image support, the boot loader code in the boot block examines the upper 8 MB of the flash bank for alternate boot images. If an image is found, control is passed to the image.
MVME3100 Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800M28C)
65
MOTLoad Firmware

3.10.6 Boot Image Firmware Scan

The scan is performed by examining each 1 MB boundary for a defined set of flags that identify the image as being POST, USER, or Alternate MOTLoad. POST is a user-developed Power On Self Test that would perform a set of diagnostics and then return to the boot loader image. USER would be a boot image, such as the VxWorks bootrom, which would perform board initialization. A bootable VxWorks kernel would also be a USER image. Boot images are not restricted to being 1 MB or less in size; however, they must begin on a 1 MB boundary within the 8 MB of the scanned flash bank. The flash bank structure is shown below:
Address Usage
0xFFF00000 to 0xFFFFFFFF Boot block. Recovery code.
0xFFE00000 to 0XFFFFFFFF Backup MOTLoad image
0xFFD00000 to 0xFFDFFFFF First possible alternate image
0xFFC00000 to 0xFFCFFFFF Second possible alternate image
.... Alternate boot images
0xFF899999 to 0xFF8FFFFF Bottom of flash (flash size varies per product)
The scan is performed downwards beginning at the location of the first possible alternate image and searches first for POST, then USER, and finally Alternate MOTLoad images. In the case of multiple images of the same type, control is passed to the first image encountered in the scan.
Safe Start, whether invoked by hitting ESC on the console within the first five seconds following power-on reset or by setting the Safe Start jumper, interrupts the scan process. The user may then display the available boot images and select the desired image. The feature is provided to enable recovery in cases when the programm ed Alternate Boot Image is no longer desired. The following output is an example of an interactive Safe Start:
ABCDEInteractive Boot Mode Entered boot> ?

3.11 Startup Sequence

The firmware startup sequence following reset of MOTLoad is to:
z Initialize cache, MMU, FPU, and other CPU internal items
z Initialize the memory controller
z Search the active flash bank, possibly interactively, for a valid Power On Self Test (POST)
image. If found, the POST images executes. Once completed, the POST image returns and startup continues.
z Search the active flash bank, possibly interactively, for a valid USER boot image. If found,
the USER boot image executes. A return to the boot block code is not anticipated.
z If a valid USER boot image is not found, search the active flash bank, possibly interactively,
for a valid Alternate MOTLoad boot image; anticipated to be an upgrade of alternate MOTLoad firmware. If found, the image is executed. A return to the boot block code is not anticipated.
z Execute the recovery image of the firmware in the boot block if no valid USER or alternate
MOTLoad image is found
During startup, interactive mode may be entered by either setting the Safe Start jumper/switch or by sending an <ESC> to the console serial port within five seconds of the board reset. During interactive mode, the user has the option to display locations at which valid boot images were discovered, specify which discovered image is to be executed, or specify that the recovery image in the boot block of the active flash bank is to be executed.

This device provides four sATA channels at 1.5Gb/s and is compliant with the Serial ATA: High speed serialized AT Attachment Specification, Revision 1.0. It also supports the native command queuing feature of sATA II.
The MVME3100 uses two of the four sATA channels. Channel 0 is routed to a sATA connector mounted on the front panel for an external drive connection. Channel 1 is routed to a planar sATA connector for an "inside the chassis" drive connection. Collocated with the planar connector is a sATA power connector. The sATA controller can operate in legacy (Native PCI IDE) and Direct Port Access (DPA) mode.
The MVME3100 provides two programmable LEDs to indicate sATA channel activity.
Refer to the SiI3124A PCI-X to Serial ATA Controller Datasheet listed in Appendix B, Related
Documentation, for additional details and/or programming information

4.10.4 PCI-X-to-PCI-X Bridges

The MVME3100 uses two PLX PCI6520 PCI-X-to-PCI-X bridges to isolate the primary PCI bus, bus A. These bridges isolate bus A from bus B with the PMC sites and from bus C with the USB controller and PMCspan interface. The PCI6520 is a 64-bit, 133 MHz, PCI-X r1.0b compliant device. It operates asynchronously between 33 MHz and 133 MHz on either primary or secondary port. Refer to the PCI6520CB Data Book listed in Appendix B, Related

4.10.5 PCI Mezzanine Card Slots

The MVME3100 provides two PMC sites that support standard PMCs or PrPMCs. Both PMC sites are located on PCI bus B and operate at the same speed and mode as determined by the slowest PMC module. The board routing supports a maximum of 100 MHz PCI-X operation on each site. Signaling voltage (Vio) for the two PMC sites is dependent on keying pin installation options and can be configured for 5V or 3.3V. Both sites must be configured for the same Vio voltage or the Vio voltage will be disabled. Each PMC site has enough 3.3V and 5V power allocated to support a 25 watt (max) PMC or PrPMC from either supply.
PMC slot 1 supports:
Feature Description
Mezzanine Type: PMC = PCI Mezzanine Card
Mezzanine Size: S1B = Single width and standard depth
(75mm x 150mm) with front panel
PMC Connectors: J11, J12, J13, and J14 (32/64-bit PCI with front and rear I/O)
Signaling Voltage: VIO = +3.3V (+5V tolerant) or +5V, selected by keying pin
PMC slot 2 supports:
Feature Description

Functional Description

4.11 General-Purpose Timers

There are a total of eight independent, 32-bit timers. Four timers are integrated into the MPC8540 and four timers are in the PLD. The four MPC8540 timers are clocked by the RTC input, which is driven by a 1 MHz clock. The clock source for the four timers in the PLD is 25 MHz. Refer to the MPC8540 Reference Manual listed in Appendix B, Related Documentation, for additional details and/or programming information.

4.12 Real-time Clock Battery

There is an on-board Renata SMT battery holder on the MVME3100. This SMTU2430-1 holder allows for quick and easy replacement of a 3V button cell lithium battery (CR2430), which provides back-up power to the on-board DS1375 RTC. A battery switching circuit provides automatic switching between the 3.3V and battery voltages. The battery provides backup power to the RTC for a minimum of one year at nominal temperature.

4.13 Reset Control Logic

The sources of reset on the MVME3100 are the following:
z Power-up
z Reset switch
z Watchdog timer
z System Control register bit
z VMEbus reset
A board-level hard reset generates a reset for the entire board including the MPC8540, local PCI/PCI-X buses, Ethernet PHYs, serial ports, Flash devices, and PLD(s). If the MVME3100 is configured as the VME system controller, the VME bus and local TSi148 reset input are also reset.

5.2.7 MVME721 PMC I/O Module (PIM) Connectors (J10, J14)

PMC Host I/O connector J10 routes only power and ground from VME P2. There are no Host I/O signals on this connector. The MVME3100 routes PMC I/O from J14 of PMC Slot 1 to VME P2 rows A and C. The MVME721 routes these signals (pin-for-pin) from VME P2 to PMC I/O Module connector J14. See Table 5-13 and Table 5-6 for the pin assignments.
