MVME162 Embedded Controller

Highlights

The MVME162 family provides OEMs and solutions developers an ideal platform for embedded monitoring and control applications. It allows an OEM to minimize their engineering expenses while integrating value-added hardware and software applications onto an off-the-shelf product.

In order to provide this wide range of solutions, the MVME162 allows a variety of MPU, memory and interface options such as floating point, Ethernet, SCSI, and VME to be selected. The result is a variation of the MVME162 which most closely fits the application requirement.

A key feature of the MVME162 is the IndustryPack® logic interface. This interface provides a 32-bit data path for the IndustryPack modules to the local MC68040 bus. IndustryPack modules provide a wide variety of connections to "real-world" applications such as I/O, control, interface, analog and digital functions.

Up to four single-wide or two double- wide IndustryPack modules can be installed on the MVME162 and still occupy only one VME slot. As I/O needs change, a new IndustryPack module can be installed thus preserving the customer's overall investment.

IndustryPack Interface

The IndustryPack interface ASIC (designed by Motorola) provides the logic interface for the IndustryPack bus. Key features of this device include: four DMA channels, 8 MHz or 32 MHz clock selection, and one programmable timer.

The MVME162 is fully compliant with the emerging IndustryPack standard which covers DMA and 32MHz operation.

Memory Expansion

The MVME162 is offered with 1 or 4MB of on-board DRAM. These versions can be expanded up to 16MB by using customer-installable memory modules.

Transition Modules

Optional MVME712 Series Transition Modules are available to support the use of standard I/O connections for the MVME162 Series. These modules take the I/O connections for the peripherals on-board the MVME162 Series from the P2 connection of the module to a transition module that has industry standard connections.

Development Software

Development software for the MVME162 series includes the on-board debugger/monitor firmware and driver packages for the VMEexec® environment. Object and source code is available for application development.

The Motorola Commitment

Motorola Computer Group is committed to providing best-in-class VME board level products and standard open computer platforms to the industry. These products provide superior hardware, price performance, and faithfulness to the tenets of open computing: modularity, scalability, portability and interoperability.

This commitment is evident in the MVME162. Because of the reliability and quality that are designed in, Motorola offers an industry leading standard five-year warranty.
