MVME5500

Motorola MVME5500 Series VMEbus CPU Boards | Single Board Computers (SBC's) | with MPC7455 PowerPC Microprocessors

Motorola MVME5500 01-W3885F Series VMEbus CPU Boards | MPC7455 @ 1GHz, Dual Ethernet | Support PrPMCs | 512MB of onboard 133 MHz SDRAM ECC | Two banks of soldered flash memory.

The MVME5500 is the latest flagship of the Motorola VME product line, enabling higher levels of performance in a single VMEbus slot. The MVME5500 utilizes the MPC7455 processor running at 1 GHz, which is ideal for data-intensive applications.

The MVME5500 provides more than just better processor performance; it also provides balanced performance from the processor, memory, dual independent local buses, and I/O subsystems. The powerful Marvell system controller, with support for a 133 MHz host bus and a 133 MHz SDRAM memory bus, is well matched to the high-speed processor. To match the system I/O to the outstanding processor performance, the MVME5500 provides dual 64-bit, 33/66 MHz PCI buses. Each PCI bus has a PMC site supporting cards running at 33 or 66 MHz. The Universe II VME interface and PMCspan connector are isolated from the PMC sites on a dedicated 33 MHz PCI bus segment so that both PMC sites are capable of 66 MHz operations. The MVME5500 also offers a Gigabit Ethernet interface, a 10/100BaseTX Ethernet interface, and two serial ports. All of this adds up to a set of well-balanced, high-performance subsystems for unparalleled performance.
