3 Technical Details

The BAB 760 is a PowerPC-based single board computer with a VMEbus interface. The standardised Eurocard format permits setting up multiprocessor systems in proven 19" racks.

The board is based on the Marvell Discovery 1 chip set, providing internal 64bit/ 66 MHz PCI resources. Also, long-term availability, compared to the PC market, makes the board an ideal platform for industrial applications.

Memory Configuration

The 64-bit wide memory allows configurations of 128 MBytes, 256 Mbytes, or

512 MBytes with on-board 133 MHz SDRAMs in a single SO-DIMM module; 1GB modules are supported when available. The second-level cache, located on the

CPU chip, runs with the full CPU clock rate.

A CompactFlash socket, mounted on the board, offers file storage with robust, non-rotating media.

Boot PROM

Boot code is stored in a Flash EPROM which enables easy code updates. Boot from IDE or Ethernet is supported, depending on the operating system used.

A second Flash device with 8 MB is available for user-supplied code.

Current boot Proms contain self test code as well as OS boot code for Linux,

OS-9, and VxWorks.

PMC Expansion

A PMC single-slot module board can be installed in the on-board PMC connector. Additionally, a PMC module carrier board can be installed to provide two additional PMC module slots. PMC I/O of the carrier is routed to the back plane P2 connectors.

Hard Disks

Hard Disks are supported with the parallel ATA controller of the BAB 760. Data is transferred with up to 100 MB/s. There are two ATA channels, one of which is used for attaching the Compact Flash socket. The second IDE channel is routed to the transition board on the back plane, where data is converted to serial ATA format.

Dual PMC Option

As an option, the BAB 760 can be equipped with two PMC slots instead of one, while still fitting into a single VME slot. Due to limited front panel space, with this option the following changes apply: Keyboard/Mouse / CompactFlash connectors are not supplied. In addition, only one serial RS-232 D connector is at the front panel and the PMC expansion carrier cannot be used.

Ethernet Interface

The two network interfaces use the chipset-internal network controllers for

10/100 Mbps transfers with 10BaseT (twisted pair) or 100BaseTX connectivity.

Both Ethernet ports are routed to the front panel.

Front Panel I/O

There are two options for the front panel, depending on the selection of one or two PMC modules: The single-PMC version has two serial-interface Sub D connectors, two Ethernet RJ-45 connectors and one keyboard-mouse mini-DIN connector and PMC mounting slot.. The dual-PMC option has one 9-pin serial

D connector and one Ethernet RJ45 connector.

I/O Features

Four asynchronous 16550-compatible serial channels with up to 115 kbaud transfer rate and 16-byte FIFO with RS232 levels are available. PS/2-compatible keyboard and mouse interfaces are provided with a single mini-DIN connector

(for use with Y cable). A printer port is routed to the back plane transition board (optional).

Transition Board

The transition board is used to route I/O from the backside of the back plane to the enclosure back panel. It contains standard connectors for COM3/4, and header connectors for serial ATA as well as for parallel ATA. Conversion from parallel to serial ATA is also done on the transition board. Parallel port and timer I/Os are available only alternatively.

Miscellaneous

USB is not implemented on the BAB 760 board. However, a PMC module with

USB 2.0 support and connectors is available.

VMEbus Interface

The VMEbus interface is implemented with a 32-bit PCI-to-VME interface chip, delivering system slot capabilities for 32-bit VME systems. It features four programmable address windows, programmable VME interrupt handling, and interrupt generation. Software drivers for all operating systems supported on the BAB 760 are supplied.

Watchdog / Timers

The BAB 760 has three on-board 32-bit counters with programmable time-out periods, each with gating input and timer output; they can be used as a watchdogs, process timers, etc. Special-function counters, such as angular encoders, can be implemented in an on-board programmable circuit on request.

Operating Systems

The software support for the BAB 760 includes the board support package for the ELinOS Embedded Linux and for OS-9. Support for WindRiver's VxWorks

(rev 5.4) with Tornado (rev 2.0) is in preparation.
