Safety Summary

The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation, service, and repair of this equipment. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual could result in personal injury or damage to the equipment.

The safety precautions listed below represent warnings of certain dangers of which Motorola is aware. You, as the user of the product, shoul d foll ow these warni ngs and al l other sa fety pr ecauti ons nece ssary fo r the safe ope ration of the equipment in your operating environment.

Ground the Instrument.

To minimize shock hazard, the equipment chassis and enclosure must be connected to an electrical ground. If the equipment is su pplied wi th a three-c onductor A C power ca ble, the po wer cable m ust be plug ged into an a pproved three-contact electrical outlet, with the grounding wire (green/yellow) reliably connected to an electrical ground (safety ground) at the power outlet. The power jack and mating plug of the power cable meet International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) safety standards and local electrical regulatory codes.

Do Not Operate in an Explosive Atmosphere.

Do not operate the equipment in any explosive atmosphere such as in the presence of flammable gases or fumes. Operation of any electrical equipment in such an environment could result in an explosion and cause injury or damage.

Keep Away From Live Circuits Inside the Equipment.

Operating personnel must not remove equipment covers. Only Factory Authorized Service Personnel or other qualified service personnel may remove equipment covers for internal subassembly or component replacement or any internal adjust ment. Service pe rsonnel should n ot replace compon ents with power c able connected. Under certain conditions, dangero us voltages may exist even with the power cable remo ved. T o avoid inju ries, such pers onnel should always disconnect power and discharge circuits before touching components.

Use Caution When Exposing or Handling a CRT.

Breakage of a Cathode-Ray Tube (CRT) causes a high-velocity scattering of glass fragments (implosion). To prevent CRT implosion, do not handl e the CRT and avoid rough handling o r jarring of t he equipment . Handling o f a CRT should be done only by qualified service personnel using approved safety mask and gloves.

Do Not Substitute Parts or Modify Equipment.

Do not install substitute parts or perform any unauthorized modification of the equipment. Contact your local Motorola representative for service and repair to ensure that all safety features are maintained.

Observe Warnings in Manual.

W arn ings , such as th e exa mple be low, preced e pote ntia lly da nger ous pro cedure s thro ugh out th is manual . In struc tion s contained in the warnings m ust be follow ed. You should also employ all ot her safety precautions w hich you dee m necessary for the operation of the equ i pm ent in your operating environment.

To prevent serious injury or death from dangerous voltages, use extreme caution when handling, testing, and adjusting this equipment and its

Warning

components.

Flammability

All Motorola PWBs (printed wiring boards ) are manufactured with a flammability rating of 94V-0 by UL-recognized manufacturers.

EMI Caution

This equipment ge ner ates, uses a nd can radi ate el ectro magne tic energy . It

Caution

This product contains a lithium battery to power the clock and calendar circuitry.

Caution

may cause or be susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if not installed and used with adequate EMI protection.

Lithium Battery Caution

Danger of explosion if battery is re placed incorrect ly. Replace battery only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the equipment

manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Attention

Vorsicht

Il y a danger d’explosion s’il y a remplacement incorrect de la batterie. Remplacer uniquement avec une batterie du même type ou d’un type équivalent recommandé par le constructeur. Mettre au rebut les batteries usagées conformément aux instructions du fabricant.

Explosionsgefahr bei unsachgemäßem Austausch der Ba tterie. Ersatz nur durch denselben ode r einen vom Herstel ler empfohle nen Typ. Entsorgu ng gebrauchter Batterien nach Angaben des Herstellers.

CE Notice (European Community)

Caution

Avoid touching areas of integrated circuitry; static discharge can damage circuits.

Hardware Configuration

To produce the desired configuration and ensure proper operation of the MVME2603/2604, you may need to carry out certain hardware modifications before installing the module.

The MVME2603/2604 provides software control over most options: by setting bits in c ontrol re gisters after ins tallin g the modul e in a syste m, you can modify its configurati on. (The MVME2603/2604 con trol regist ers are described in Chapter 3, Functional Description, and/or in the MVME2600 Series Single Board Computer Programmer’s Reference Gui de, as listed in

Appendix D, Related Documentation.)

Some options, however, are not sof tware-programmabl e. Such options are controlled through manual installation or removal of header jumpers or interface modules on the base board or the associated transition module.

MVME2603/2604 Base Board Preparation

Figure 1-2 on page 1-9 illustrates the placement of the switches, jumper

headers, connectors, and LED indicators on the MVME2603/2604. Manually configurable items on the base board include:

❏ Cache mode control (J3) ❏ Flash bank selection (J10) ❏ Serial Port 4 receive clock configuration (J16) ❏ Serial Port 4 transmit clock configuration (J17) ❏ Serial Port 4 transmit cl ock receiver buffer cont rol (J20) ❏ Serial Port 3 transmit clock configuration (J18) ❏ System controller selection (J22)

In conjunction with the serial port settings on the base board, serial ports on the associated MVME712M or MVME761 transition module are also manually configurable. For a discussion of the configurable items on the transition module, refer to MVME712M Transition Module Preparation

on page 1-14, MVME761 Transition Mod ule Preparat ion on page 1- 25, or

to the respective user’s manuals for the transition modu les (listed in

Appendix D, Related Documentation) as necessary.

The MVME2603/2604 is factory tested and shipped with the configurations described in the following sections. The MVME2603/2604’s required and factory-installed debug monitor, PPCBug, operates with those factory settings.

Cache Mode Control (J3)

256KB of L2 cache memory is available on the MVME2603/2604. L2 cache operation is transparent to users, but its write-through mode is configurable via header J3 on older boards. On newer MVME2603/2604 boards, header J3 is not provided. With a jumper installed on J3, cache write-through is under CPU control. With the jumper removed, cache write-through occurs in all cases.

Flash Bank Selection (J10)

The MVME2603/2604 base board has provision for 1MB of 16-bit Flash memory. The RAM200 memory mezzanine accommodat es 4MB or 8MB of additional 64-bit Flash memory.

The Flash memory is organized in either one or two banks, each bank either 16- or 64-bits wide. Both banks contain the onboard debugger, PPCBug.

To enable Flash bank A (4MB or 8MB of firmware resident on solderedin devices on the RAM200 mezzani ne) , pl ace a jumper across header J10 pins 1 and 2. To enable Flas h bank B (1MB of firmware located in socket s on the base board), place a jumper across header J10 pins 2 and 3.

Serial Port 4 Receive Clock Configuration (J16)

In synchronous seri al commun ications , you can configure Serial Port 4 on the MVME2603/2604 to use the c lock sign als provi ded by the Rx C signal line. On MVME712M-compatible versions of the base board, header J16 configures port 4 to either dri ve or recei ve RxC. The factory c onfiguratio n has port 4 set t o receive RxC. J1 6 remains open o n MVME761-compatible versions.

To complete the configura tion of Ser ial Port 4, you mus t set the f ollowing configuration headers as well:

❏ J17 (Serial Port 4 transmit clock configuration) ❏ J20 (Serial Port 4 transmit clock receiver buffer control) ❏ J15 on the MVME712M transition modu le or J3 on the MVME761

transition module (Serial Port 4 clock configuration)

Serial Port 4 Transmit Clock Configuration (J17)

In synchronous seri al commun ications , you can configure Serial Port 4 on the MVME2603/2604 to use the clock si gnals provi ded by the TxC signa l line. Header J17 configures port 4 to either drive or receive TxC. The factory configuration has port 4 set to receive TxC.

To complete the configura tion of Ser ial Port 4, you mus t set the f ollowing configuration headers as well:

❏ J16 (Serial Port 4 receive clock configuration) ❏ J20 (Serial Port 4 transmit clock receiver buffer control) ❏ J15 on the MVME712M transition modu le or J3 on the MVME761
