Product details

Motorola's MVME167 series single-board computer is a powerful device based on the MC68040 microprocessor, which integrates a variety of features and interfaces for a variety of complex embedded system applications. The following is a detailed description of its main features and functions:

Status indicator and operation switch:

The MVME167 is equipped with multiple status LED indicators to display the status of FAIL, STAT, RUN, SCON, LAN, RPWR, SCSI, VME, TPWR, and VSB, which allows users to intuitively understand the operating status of the system. In addition, it provides RESET and ABORT switches to facilitate system reset and interrupt operations.

Memory configuration:

The single-board computer is equipped with ECC (Error Checking and Correction) protected DRAM in a variety of capacities, ranging from 4MB to 256MB, to meet the memory capacity needs of different applications. At the same time, it also has 1MB of Flash memory, support for downloading EPROM, as well as 128KB of static RAM (with battery backup) and 8KB of static RAM and time date clock (also with battery backup) to ensure data integrity and reliability.

Communication and interface:

The MVME167 provides a wealth of communication interfaces, including an Ethernet transceiver interface, four serial ports with TTL interfaces, a SCSI bus interface (with DMA), and a Centronics printer port. These interfaces enable single-board computers to carry out high-speed, stable data transmission and communication with other devices.

Bus and Controller:

The single board computer support A16 / / A32 / D8 A24 / D16 / D32 / D64 VMEbus master/slave interface, it can flexibly in the VMEbus system plays the role of main equipment or from the device. In addition, it is equipped with a VMEbus system controller, which provides powerful support for VMEbus communication. At the same time, as the core component of VMEbus interface, VMEchip2 ASIC provides two tick timers, a watchdog timer, programmable mapping decoder and VMEbus to local bus DMA controller, which further enhances the communication capability of the system.

I/O connection and expansion:

The I/O connectivity of the MVME167 is provided by two high-density shielded front panel I/O connectors, ensuring stability and reliability of data transmission. The SCSI bus is connected via a 68-pin connector, while the printer, four serial ports, and Ethernet interface are connected via a 100-pin connector. In addition, to support the MVME167 board, the MVME712-10 transition module and the MVME712-06/07/09 I/O distribution board set were designed. These transition boards provide configuration heads, serial port drivers, and industry-standard connectors to facilitate the connection and expansion of I/O devices.

Data transfer between processor and VMEbus:

Data transmission between the MVME167 processor and the VMEbus supports D8, D16, and D32 modes. DMA transmission from VMEchip2 to VMEbus supports multiple modes such as D16, D32, D16/BLT, D32/BLT and D64/MBLT, further improving the efficiency and flexibility of data transmission.

In summary, Motorola's MVME167 series single-board computer with its powerful microprocessor, flexible memory configuration, rich communication interface and efficient VMEbus communication capability, become the ideal choice in the field of embedded systems. Whether used in industrial automation, communications equipment or other high performance computing applications, it provides outstanding performance and stability.
