Functional Description
2-21
2
The PCCchip2 provides an auto-strobe feature similar to that of the
MVME147 PCC.
❏
In auto-strobe mode, after a write to the Printer Data Register,
the PCCchip2 automatically asserts the STROBE* pin for a
selected time specified by the Printer Fast Strobe control bit.
❏
In manual mode, the Printer Strobe control bit directly
controls the state of the STROBE* pin.
Ethernet Interface
The 82596CA is used to implement the Ethernet transceiver
interface. The 82596CA accesses local RAM using DMA operations
to perform its normal functions.
The Ethernet transceiver interface is located on the MVME167, and
the industry-standard connector is located on the MVME712X
transition module.
Every MVME167 is assigned an Ethernet Station Address. The
address is $08003E2
xxxxx
where
xxxxx
is the unique 5-nibble
number assigned to the board (i.e., every MVME167 has a different
value for
xxxxx
).
Each module has the Ethernet Station Address displayed on a label
attached to the VMEbus P2 connector. In addition, the six bytes
including the Ethernet address are stored in the configuration area
of the BBRAM. That is, 08003E2
xxxxx
is stored in the BBRAM.
❏
At an address of $FFFC1F2C, the upper four bytes (08003E2
x
)
can be read.
❏
At an address of $FFFC1F30, the lower two bytes (
xxxx
) can
be read.
The MVME167 debugger has the capability to retrieve or set the
Ethernet address.
If the data in the BBRAM is lost, the user should use the number on
the VMEbus P2 connector label to restore it.
