Figure 1
illustrates the main header and switch locations on the top (processor) side of the
MPC8572EAMC. Users should follow this getting started guide prior to applying power to the card,
because incorrect board settings can cause permanent board damage.

Check Switches
1. DIP Switch settings should only be changed when power is NOT applied to the board.
2. The MPC8572EAMC board has three push button switches (SW1, SW2 and SW3), four Dual In
line Package (DIP) switches (SW4, SW5, SW500, and SW501), and eight jumper headers (J1–J7
and HD1). The default DIP switch positions provide Power On Reset configuration values for the
MPC8572EAMC board. Check the default positions and verify the board is operational before
changing the switches. The settings for the switches are shown in
Figure 2
, with their default
positions as described in
Table 2
.
Table 6
gives a full list of all possible switch configurations.
3. Jumper headers J3, J6, and HD1 are reserved for factory test and are used to program the module
management controller and Reset/System CPLDs. Users should not attempt to reprogram the card
using these headers because this may result in permanent card damage. The jumpers should
remain in their default position as detailed in
Table 3
.
