bottlenecks. With the addition of Emerson’s processor
PMCs (PrPMCs), additional PowerPC architecture-
compatible processors can be added for a multiprocessor
solution without sacrifi cing any of the MVME6100
series benefi ts.
INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION
The MVME6100 is also ideally suited for semiconductor
process equipment (SPE), automated test equipment
(ATE) and a variety of other high-end industrial
automation applications because of its increased bus
bandwidth and faster processing speeds. The backwards
compatibility of the MVME6100 series with existing
VME products helps to provide OEMs a way to extend
the life and capability of their current designs without
sacrifi cing existing key hardware and software
investments. The DSP-like AltiVec technology, which
is incorporated into the processor, allows the
MVME6100 series to be used for an assortment of
vector processing applications. And with two PMC
sites, the MVME6100 series can be customized.
MEDICAL IMAGING
Medical imaging applications such as Nuclear
Medicine (NM), Positron Emission Tomography (PET),
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), X-Ray and
Computed Tomography (CT) that entail intensive
image processing, manipulation and algorithm-
intensive computations can benefi t from the 2eSST
protocol’s 8x increase in VMEbus transfer rates. With
the ability of the MVME6100 series to work with
existing VMEbus backplanes and boards, OEMs can
increase their overall system performance while
protecting their software and hardware investments.
The performance of the MVME6100 series also helps
OEMs to reduce the overall number of embedded
cards required in a medical imaging application so
that space issues become less of a factor.
The MVME6100 series continues the direction of
providing a migration path from Emerson’s embedded
controllers such as the MVME2300/MVME2400 and
from Emerson SBCs such as the MVME2600/2700 to
a single platform. The MVME6100 series, like the
MVME5100 and MVME5500 series, merged the best
features of Emerson’s embedded controllers and SBCs
enabling OEMs to support varying I/O requirements
with the same base platform, simplifying part number
maintenance, technical expertise requirements
and sparing.
Backward Compatibility
The MVME6100 series offers customers a migration
path from the MVME2300, MVME2400, MVME2600,
MVME2700, MVME5100 and MVME5500 boards to
allow them to take advantage of features such as the
MPC7457 processor, DDR memory, Gigabit Ethernet,
PCI-X and 2eSST.
PCI EXPANSION
The MVME6100 has a 32/64-bit, 33/66MHz PCI
connection to support PCI expansion carriers such as
the Emerson PMCspan.
P2 I/O MODES
The MVME6100 series supports two, jumper-confi gu-
rable P2 I/O modes: the PMC mode and IPMC mode.
PMC mode is backwards compatible with the
MVME2300/MVME2400 and MVME5100/MVME5500
in PMC mode. 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 MVME6100 series
supports legacy MVME761 or MVME712M I/O
modules (with limited PMC I/O) when an IPMC761 or
IPMC712 PMC card is populated in PMC slot 1. In this
confi guration, 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 backwards compatibility with
previous generation Emerson products (such as
MVME2600/MVME2700 and MVME5100/MVME5500
in IPMC mode) using the MVME761 or MVME712M
transition module. IPMC modules provide rear I/O
support for:
°
°
°
With this PMC card confi guration, one PMC slot is still
available to provide support for OEM product
customization.
TRANSITION MODULES
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 access to
the asynchronous serial ports confi gured 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-confi gurable as EIA-232, DCE or
One single-ended Ultra Wide SCSI port
One parallel port
Four serial ports (two or three async and one or two
sync/async, depending on module)
