MVME55006E-0163R NXP® MPC7457 VME SBC

The MVME5500 from SMART Embedded Computing uses the MPC7457 processor running at
1 GHz, balanced with memory, dual independent local buses and I/O subsystems.
The powerful Marvell system controller, with support for a 133 MHz host bus and a 133 MHz
SDRAM memory bus, is well matched to the high speed processor.
To match the system I/O to the outstanding processor performance, the MVME5500 provides
dual 64-bit, 33/66 MHz PCI buses. Each PCI bus has a PMC site supporting cards running at
33 or 66 MHz. The Universe II VME interface and PMCspan connector are isolated from the
PMC sites on a dedicated 33 MHz PCI bus segment so that both PMC sites are capable of
66 MHz operation.
The MVME5500 also offers a Gigabit Ethernet interface, a 10/100BaseTX Ethernet interface
and two serial ports. All of this adds up to a set of well-balanced, high-performance
subsystems for unparalleled performance.
The MVME5500 series is designed to meet the needs of OEMs including those in defense and
aerospace, industrial automation and transportation. Customers looking for a technology
refresh for their application while maintaining backward compatibility with their existing
VMEbus infrastructure can upgrade to the MVME5500 series and take advantage of the
enhanced performance features.
