MVME6100 Series VMEbus Single-Board Computer

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 benefit 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.

Backward Compatibility

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.

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-configu

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

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 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:

One single-ended Ultra Wide SCSI port

One parallel port

Four serial ports (two or three async and one or  c

two sync/async, depending on module)

With this PMC card configuration, 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 configured 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. DCE or

4

DTE via the installation of Emerson Serial Interface

Modules (SIMs). A P2 adapter board provides interface

signals to the MVME761 transition module. Two separate

P2 adapter boards are available: one for 3-row backplanes

and one for 5-row backplanes. The 3-row P2 adapter

board provides connection for 8-bit SCSI. A 5-row P2

adapter board supports 16-bit SCSI and PMC I/O.

The MVME712M transition module provides

industry-standard connector access to the Centronics

parallel port, a narrow 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 board provides

interfa
