The VGA port routes the graphics data to an industry-standard 3-row
DB15 connector on the front panel of the MVME1600-001 base board (as
illustrated in Figure 1-3).
Refer to Chapter 4 for the pin assignments of the MVME1600-001 front
panel VGA connector. Refer to Cirrus Logic’s CL-GD5446 Technical
Reference Manual for detailed programming information.
PCI Mezzanine Interface
A key feature of the MVME1603/MVME1604 family is the PCI
(Peripheral Component Interconnect) bus. In addition to the on-board local
bus devices (SCSI, Ethernet, graphics, etc.), the PCI bus supports an
industry-standard mezzanine interface, IEEE P1386.1 PMC (PCI
Mezzanine Card).
PMC modules offer a variety of possibilities for I/O expansion through
FDDI (Fiber Distributed Data Interface), ATM (Asynchronous Transfer
Mode), graphics, Ethernet, or SCSI ports. Both versions of the base board
support PCI front panel I/O.
The MVME1603/MVME1604 supports one PMC slot. Two 64-pin
connectors on the base board (J11 and J12) interface with 32-bit IEEE
P1386.1 PMC-compatible mezzanines to add any desirable function. The
PCI Mezzanine Card slot has the following characteristics:
Refer to Chapter 4 for the pin assignments of the PMC connectors. For
detailed programming information, refer to the PCI bus descriptions in the
MVME1603/MVME1604 Programmer’s Reference Guide and to the user
documentation for the PMC modules you intend to use.
