Motorola MVME162 Embedded Controller

Double-High VME Module

The Emerson / Motorola MVME162 stands out as a double-high VME module, designed for seamless integration into VMEbus-based systems. Its robust construction and high-performance capabilities ensure reliable operation in even the most demanding embedded computing environments.

Powerful Microprocessor Options

The heart of the MVME162 is its microprocessor, offering two options to suit different application needs. The MC68LC040, a highly efficient processor, provides robust performance for a wide range of tasks. For even more compute-intensive applications, the optional MC68040 microprocessor, equipped with a floating-point coprocessor, delivers unparalleled mathematical processing power.

Memory Configuration

The MVME162 boasts a flexible memory configuration, with options for 1MB, 4MB, or 8MB of parity-protected DRAM. This ensures robust data integrity and reliability, even during high-intensity operations. Additionally, 512KB of SRAM, backed up by a battery, provides fast access to frequently used data and programs.

Clock and Timing Accuracy

For precise timing and synchronization, the MVME162 incorporates a TOD (Time-of-Day) clock, also backed up by a battery to maintain accuracy even during power outages. Six tick timers, including watchdog timers, ensure reliable system monitoring and timing control.

Connectivity and Interfaces

Connectivity is key in modern embedded systems, and the MVME162 does not disappoint. An optional LAN Ethernet transceiver interface with DMA enables high-speed network communication. Two serial ports, supporting EIA-232-D and EIA-232-D/EIA-530 standards, provide flexible communication options with a wide range of devices.

Bus Interface Flexibility

The MVME162's VMEbus interface offers exceptional flexibility, supporting local bus to VMEbus and VMEbus to local bus conversions. With support for A16/A24/A32 and D8/D16/D32 bus widths, it can seamlessly integrate with various VMEbus-based systems. Additionally, a VMEbus system controller ensures smooth and efficient communication with other devices on the bus.

Optional Extensions

For even more functionality, the MVME162 offers optional extensions. An optional SCSI bus interface with DMA enables high-speed data transfers with SCSI-compatible storage devices. This is particularly useful in applications that require large amounts of data storage or fast data access.

In summary, the Emerson / Motorola MVME162 is a powerful and versatile embedded controller that offers a comprehensive feature set to meet the demands of modern embedded computing applications. Whether it's high-performance computing, reliable data storage, or flexible connectivity, the MVME162 delivers exceptional performance and reliability.
