Product Details:

MOTOROLA MVME172PA-652SE belongs to MVME172PA series 6U double-high VMEbus embedded single board computer, adopting Petra ASIC chip design, equipped with MC68060 60MHz 32-bit superscalar processor, integrated FPU and MMU. This variant is configured with 32MB ECC SDRAM, 128KB battery-backed SRAM, 2MB on-board flash memory, 8KB battery-backed NVRAM with real-time clock, four EIA-232-D serial ports, AUI 10Mbps Ethernet interface and narrow SCSI controller, supporting two IndustryPack expansion slots. It supports VMEbus A16/A24/A32 addressing and D8/D16/D32/D64 block DMA transfer, integrates dual EPROM firmware sockets, six 32-bit programmable timers and hardware watchdog circuit. The built-in monitor firmware supports serial console debugging, flash boot and network boot configuration, with remote reset and pause control function. This legacy embedded board is end-of-life, available stock are refurbished replacement spares for vintage industrial and test automation systems.

This SBC can act as VMEbus master or slave and supports stable high-speed data transmission on VME backplane. It carries integrated floating-point unit to handle motion control and complex numerical calculation tasks. It provides four EIA-232D serial channels for console and peripheral connection, flash storage for local firmware storage, SCSI interface for storage device access and AUI Ethernet port for host communication. Users can expand diverse I/O modules via dual IndustryPack slots and match it with other VMEbus devices to build a complete embedded control system. Optimized PCB layout reduces electromagnetic noise interference, it maintains stable compatibility with VxWorks and other classic real-time operating systems.

It adopts standard double-high 6U eurocard mechanical specification and draws +5V, ±12V power supply from the VME backplane. Front panel provides serial connectors, AUI Ethernet port, SCSI port and status LED indicators. Hot swap operation is not supported; power supply must be shut down before installation or removal. The PCB and soldering assembly meet industrial shock and vibration specifications for cabinet mounting.

It is widely deployed in semiconductor test equipment, industrial control subsystems and long-cycle industrial data logging racks requiring floating-point operation, ECC memory protection, 60MHz high-speed CPU, 32MB SDRAM, SCSI storage, Ethernet communication and dual IndustryPack expansion. Typical application scenarios include VME rack main CPU replacement, multi-function data acquisition system maintenance and legacy automation platform retrofit. Automation integrators select this Motorola MVME172PA-652SE for its MC68060 60MHz,32MB ECC SDRAM configuration, serial ports,SCSI,Ethernet,IndustryPack.
