Compatible with Emerson’s

PowerPlus VME series

The Emerson Network Power PMCspan board allows users to customize their exact I/O

requirements with Emerson’s VME-based CPU modules designed around the PowerPlus

architecture.

When a PMCspan board is coupled with an Emerson processor module, the system

provides up to six PCI Mezzanine Cards (PMCs), more expansion capability than any

other VME-bus processor module.   Each PMCspan board supports either two single

wide or one double-wide PMC.   By stacking PMCspan boards onto a processor module,

a total of four additional single-wide PMCs can be added to Emerson’s compute

engines – either today or as future application growth demands.

The PMCspan is a standard 6U single-slot VMEbus module that links to its host board

via a PCI expansion connector.   It supports both front panel and P2 I/O access for

customer supplied PMCs

ProDuCT oFFErIng

In order to support the increased PCI bus loading

associated with additional PMCs, PMCspan uses the

PLX6150.  This PCI-to-PCI interface bridge supports a

32-bit primary bus interface and a 32-bit secondary

bus interface.  PMCspan mates directly with the host

CPU via the separate PCI expansion connector.

When the maximum of two PMCspan modules are stacked

together, the top board does not require a second PCI

to-PCI interface bridge.  Software views this secondary

module as an extension to the primary PMCspan.
