Main Components
33MHz, 32/64-bit PCI
66MHz, 32/64-bit PCI
66MHz, 32/64-bit PCI-X
100MHz, 32/64-bit PCI-X
133MHz, 32/64-bit PCI-X
PCI-X is supported according to the VITA 39 PCI-X Auxiliary Standard For PMCs and Processor
PMCs.
Both PMC sites support either 3.3V or 5V signaling on VIO. The choice is determined by mounting
options (resistors and voltage key/pin) and can only be modified by VMETRO. The default setting
when shipped is 3.3V. The voltage key must always be mounted in the correct position to avoid
severe hardware damage.
Both PMC sites support the Processor PMC features. PMC site #1 supports the MONARCH signal.
PMC Power
Max current per PMC for 3.3V power supply : 3A
Max current per PMC for 5V power supply : 3A
Max current per PMC for V(I/O) power supply : 2A
Additional Connections
Additionally to the standard PCI-X buses, the PMC sites include the following connections:
PMC to VME P0: the P4 connector of the PMC site #2 is connected to the VME P0 connector
as described in
Table E-4 in “PMC Connector Pinout” on page 103.
PMC to VME P2: the P4 connector of the PMC site #1 is connected to the VME P2 (row a and
c) connector as described in the ANSI/VITA 35-2000 standard (PMC-P4 pin out mapping to
VME P0 and VME64x-P2).
Extension Subsystem
The Extension Subsystem is composed of VME, RACEway and mezzanine interfaces. All the
devices are located on a private 64-bit, 33MHz, 5V signaling, PCI only segment. This PCI segment
is called the Quaternary PCI Segment.
A PCI6540 universal PCI-X to PCI-X bridge connects the Quaternary PCI Segment with the
Tertiary PCI-X Segment.
