Low-power, high-performance microprocessor suitable for a variety of applications

The MVME2400 series of VME boards provides the performance of Motorola's PowerPlus II Architecture and the ability to be fully customized to satisfy your application needs with two PCI mezzanine cards (PMCs). The flexibility of the MVME2400 provides an excellent base platform that can be quickly and easily customized for a variety of industry-specific applications.

Utilizing Motorola's low-power, high-performance MPC750 class microprocessors, the peripheral component interconnect (PCI) bus for the on-board peripherals, processor/memory bus to PCI bus bridge, and a VME interface, the MVME2400 processor modules pack optimum levels of flexibility and performance into a single VME slot.

MVME2400 Details

IEEE P1386.1 Compliant PMC Slots

The MVME2400 features dual PMC ports with support for both front-panel and P2 I/O. P2 I/O-based PMCs that follow the PMC committee recommendation for PCI I/O when using the VME64 extension connector will be pin-out compatible with the MVME2400.

In addition to providing high-performance expansion I/O, the IEEE P1386.1 compliant PMC ports form a common architecture for future generations of products. Changing I/O requirements can be satisfied by simply replacing PMCs while reusing the same base platform, reducing the long-term cost of ownership.

VME64 Extension Connectors

To maximize the capabilities of the MVME2400, 5-row 160-pin DIN connectors replace the 3-row 96-pin connectors historically used on VME for P1 and P2. Two rows, Z and D, have been added to the VME P1/J1 and P2/J2 connectors providing a user with additional I/O. The VME64 extension connector is 100 percent backward compatible with existing VME card systems.

PowerPlus Architecture

A second-generation architecture, PowerPlus II Architecture is a processor and bus architecture fully optimized to get the maximum performance from the PowerPC architecture microprocessor family, the PCI bus, and the VMEbus. Features added to the original PowerPlus Architecture include support for 100 MHz local bus operation, and utilization of synchronous DRAM (SDRAM) technology. The outstanding performance of VME processor boards based on the PowerPlus II Architecture is not due to a single factor. A number of elements in the design of the PowerPlus II Architecture contribute to its outstanding performance including the processor/memory subsystem, high-speed local bus, optimally decoupled architecture, decoupling the processor from PCI, and the advanced VME interface that reduces PCI delays.
