Supercomputing levels of performance in a scalable, single-board
computer
The MVME5100 is a high-performance VME processor module featuring the
Motorola Computer Group (MCG) PowerPlus II architecture with a choice of
®
PowerPC
processors—either Motorola’s MPC7400 with AltiVec™ technol-
ogy for algorithmic-intensive computations or the low-power MPC750.
Based on an integrated PCI bridge–memory controller ASIC designed by
MCG, PowerPlus II takes memory performance to new levels with 582MB/s
memory read bandwidth and 640MB/s burst write bandwidth. Plus, PowerPlus II architecture supports full PCI throughput of 264MB/s without starving
the CPU from its memory.
The MVME5100 is designed to m eet the needs of OEMs servicing the mi litary
and aerospace, indus trial automatio n, and semicon ductor process equi pment
market segments.

MVME5100 P2 I/O
MVME5100 P2 I/O
I/O Compatibility
Historically, MCG has offered two tracks in its Po werPC VME
portfolio. The first track (which includes the MVME2600/
2700) provides typical single-board computer I/O features
including Ethernet, SCSI , multip le serial p orts, a pa rallel p ort,
and a single PMC slot. The on-board I/O is routed to P2 and
made available to the user via MCG’s MVME761 or
MVME712M transition boards. The second track (which
includes the MVME2300/2400) offers limited on-board I/O
(Ethernet and a single s eri al p ort b oth vi a the front panel) but
provides dual PMC s lots en abling maximum u ser I/ O cus tom ization.
The MVME5100 merges the best features of both tracks
enabling the OEM to support varying I/O requirements with
the same base platform, simplifying part number maintenance, technical expertise requirements, and sparing.
P2 I/O Modes
The MVME5100 supports two, jumper-configurable P2 I/O
modes, PMC mode and IPMC mode.
PMC mode is backward compatible with the MVME2300/
MVME2400. In PMC mode, 64 pins from PMC Slot 1 and 46
pins from PMC Slot 2 are available on P2 for PMC rear I/O.
In IPMC mode, the MVME5100 supports legacy MVME761 or
MVME712M I/O modules (with limited PMC I/O) when an
IPMC761 or IPMC712 PMC card is pop ula ted in PM C Slot 1.
In this configuration, PMC Slot 2 contains some signals that
are reserved for extended SCSI.
IPMC Modules
The IPMC761 and IPMC712 are optional add-on PMC modules that provide backward compatibility with previous-generation MCG products (such as MVME2600 and MVME2700)
using the MVME761 or MVME712M transition board. IPMC
modules provide rear I/O support for
• one single-ended Ultra Wide SCSI port
• one parallel port
• four serial ports (2 or 3 async and 1 or 2 sync/async,
depending on module)
With this PMC card configuration, the memory mezzanine,
one PMC slot, and the PMCspan are still available, providing
support for OEM product customization.
Transition Modules
Transition Modules
MVME761
The MVME761 transition module provides industry-standard
connector access to the IEEE 1284 parallel port, a 10BaseT
or 100BaseT port via an RJ-45 connector, two DB-9 connectors providing acc es s to the asynchronous seri al p orts co nfigured as EIA-574 DTE, and two HD-26 connectors providing
access to the sync/async serial ports. These serial ports,
labeled as Serial 3 and Serial 4 on the faceplate of the
MVME761, are individually user-configurable as EIA-232,
EIA-530, V.35, or X.21 DCE or DTE via the installation of
Motorola Serial Interface Modules (SIMs).
A P2 adapter provides interface module signals to the
MVME761 transition module. The 3-row P2 adapter can be
used for 8-bit SCSI. A 5-row P2 adapter supports 16 -bit SCSI
and PMC I/O.
MVME712M
The MVME712M transition module provides industry-standard connector ac ce ss to the Ce ntro ni cs® parallel port, a nar-
row SCSI port, and four DB-25 connectors providing access
to the asynchronous/synchronous serial ports jumper configurable as EIA-232 DCE or DTE. A P2 adapter provides inter-
