Features Descriptions

General

As stated earlier, the MVME5100 is a high-performance VME based
Single Board Computer featuring Motorola's PowerPlus II architecture
with a choice of processors. The board can be equipped with either the
Motorola MPC7400 processor with AltiVec™ technology for algorithmic
intensive computations or with the low-power MPC750 for low-power or
field applications.
Designed to meet the needs of OEMs servicing the military and aerospace,
industrial automation, and semiconductor process equipment market
segments, the MVME5100 is available in both commercial grade
(0° to 55° C) and industrial grade (–20° to 71° C) temperatures.
The MVME5100 has two Input/Output (I/O) modes of operation:
PMC mode and MVME761 mode. In PMC mode, it is fully backwards
compatible with previous generation dual PMC products such as the
MVME2300 and MVME2400.
In MVME761 mode, the MVME5100 is backwards compatible with
Motorola's MVME761 transition board originated for use with previous
generation single-board computer products such as the MVME2600 and
MVME2700.
It is important to note that MVME761 compatibility is accomplished with
the addition of the IPMC761 (an optional add-on PMC card). The
IPMC761 provides rear I/O support for one single-ended ultra-wide SCSI
device, one parallel port, four serial ports (two synchronous and two
asynchronous/synchronous), and I
offered with the MVME5100 as a factory bundled configuration.
