Datasheet

Four Serial FPDP Channels	Four independent, bi-directional 2.5Gb Serial FPDP channels in compliance with ANSI/VITA 17.1. Each channel supports point-to-point, broadcast chaining, and single or multiple master ring topologies.
Serial FPDP Protocol	The protocol supports flow control and three primary types of frames: data frame, SYNC frame, and SYNC without data frame.
RACE++ Ports	Two independent RACE++ ports on P2 connector in compliance with the RACE (Real time Asynchronous Compute Environment) ANSI/VITA 5.1-1999 standard.
PCI Memory Nodes	Two independent 64-bit/66MHz PCI memory nodes based on a proprietary ultra low latency core in compliance with the PCI-SIG^® specification for the PCI 2.2 bus interface.
DMA Engines	Each memory node has a Mailbox DMA engine that supports linked-list (scatter/gather) chaining and generates a semaphore on the completion of a DMA transfer.
PCI Memory Arrays	Each PCI memory array can be configured with 512MB, 1GB, 2GB, or 4GB of SDRAM.
ECC	Each PCI memory node has an ECC engine that detects and corrects all single-bit errors, detects all double-bit errors, and some three and four bit errors within the same nibble.
PowerPC Processor	350MHz Motorola® 8245 PowerPC processor with MPC603e G2 superscalar core • L1 cache: 16K instruction cache, 16K data cache • I2O message interface • 256 byte nvSRAM • RS-232 Serial Port • Status Indicators and Controls • 128MB local SDRAM with ECC • Real-Time Clock • On-board Timers • Watchdog Timer and Alarms • COP & JTAG Test and Debug Interfaces
Processor Flash	32MB Flash
Protected Access	For security against inadvertent Flash programming or corruption, a hardware switch is provided to disable the Write Enable line to the Flash devices along with additional high security capabilities.
Gigabit Ethernet	On-board 10/100/1000 BaseT capable Ethernet Interface with integrated Gigabit Ethernet MAC and PHY layer functions supporting IEEE 802.3.
DMA Engines	The MM-6467D includes eleven on-board DMA engines via the following devices: one for each of the four Serial FPDP channels, two PCI memory nodes, two PCI-to-RACE++ bridges, PowerPC processor, Gigabit Ethernet Controller, and Universe II PCI-to-VME64 bridge.
Status Indicators and Controls	Ten front panel LEDs indicate Serial FPDP, Ethernet, and individual memory array status. Ethernet LEDs indicate link rate, two LEDs are software programmable, and one LED indicates processor BIST failure. A board reset signal is available and controlled by a push button switch.
Power Requirements	+5.0V Supply: 2.7A (Standby), 2.7A (Operate), +3.3V Supply: 8.6A (Standby), 10.8A (Operate)

The MM-6467D is a 6U VME board with four independent 2.5Gb Serial FPDP channels and dual RACE++ on P2. Other features include a PowerPC processor, Gigabit Ethernet, VME64 master/slave interface and complete connectivity between all devices. Configurations are available with 2GB, 4GB, or 8GB of on-board SDRAM buffer memory.

The MM-6467D’s four independent 2.5Gb Serial FPDP ports can each operate concurrently, at the full bandwidth of 247 MB/s, in any direction. Data can be rate buffered in the up to 8GB of on-board memory between the Serial FPDP channels and RACE++ switch fabric backplane.

Acting as a front end FIFO, this implementation provides the ability to acquire streaming sensor data at almost 1,000 MB/s into up to 8GB of SDRAM. Data can then be DMA’d to DSP processor nodes on the backplane switch fabric. With multiple on-board DMA engines to maximize total throughput, the architecture is specifically designed for applications involving signal processing and real time data acquisition.

The PowerPC processor has 128MB of local SDRAM, up to 32MB of contiguous direct-mapped Flash, and a hardware Flash write-protect switch for high security environments. Other features include a DUART RS-232 serial port, programmable watchdog timer, Real-Time clock and RTC alarm, COP/JTAG, and front panel LED status indicators.

The PowerPC is utilized for hosting device drivers, setting up DMA transfers, scheduling tasks and message passing. The device drivers and well defined API’s are truly integrated into the VxWorks BSP, providing the flexibility and determinism expected from an embedded RTOS while balancing ease of use that results in a near plug and play solution.

A complete MC/OE API with “DX” like calls is provided for seamless interoperability in systems utilizing products from Mercury Computer Systems^®.

Reliability is ensured by extensive testing procedures. These include running diagnostics that stress multiple patterns and operations while cycling over various temperature ranges during burn-in.
