PPC7A Product Manual

1-11st Edition

Chapter 1 - Introduction

Radstone’s PPC7A, with associated peripherals and software, is the latest addition to Radstone’s PPC

family of VME-based PowerX boards. Designed for users who require scaleable, high performance

processors, sophisticated I/O subsystems and high levels of on-board integration, the PPC7A offers a

cost-effective solution to a wide range of application requirements. The PPC7A is designed to be as

much as possible a plug-in upgrade/replacement for the Radstone PPC range of boards, embracing those

features that have made the PPC range of cards such a popular VME card.

Build Levels

Like all Radstone’s VME products, the PPC7A is available in a range of build styles, form Level 1

(Standard), suitable for a benign office-like environment, right through to Level 5 (Rugged Conduction-

cooled), capable of withstanding the harshest of environments. All products are COTS/NDI and make

maximum use of low cost plastic packaged integrated circuits to ensure the most cost effective solution,

whatever the market.

Communications

Local connection of Ultra-SCSI, Video graphics and VME64 uses PCI, as do the two IEEE P1386.1

PMC sites. PMCs available directly from Radstone include high performance graphics, MIL-STD-1553,

serial, ATM, FLASH memory, Solid State Hard Disk, fast Ethernet and other communications. The

PPC7A is the latest of Radstone’s VME products to use 5-row connectors for P1 (VME), P2 (I/O) and

P0 (PMC I/O).

Standards

Radstone is a key member of the VITA standards committee. In line with their recommendations, one of

the two PMC sites has the PMC I/O connected to P0, allowing direct backplane connection to all I/O.

The other site has its PMC I/O connected to P2, allowing direct backplane connection to I/O. The

PPC7A can also use the PMCPCI bridge product, which can be used to extend the board’s PCIbus out

via the P0 connector.

This flexibility, together with operating system support including VxWorks/Tornado, LynxOS and

RTEMS are factors in making the PPC7A an ideal vehicle for applications such as communications,

simulation, multi-media, real-time acquisition, terrain mapping, C4, image processing and high

performance graphics.

PPC7A Product Manual

Introduction

1-2

1st Edition

Objectives of this Manual

• To guide the reader through configuration, installation and power-up

• To provide the user with sufficient information to understand the operation of the PPC7A

hardware

$Note: The on-board firmware and other firmware (e.g. drivers, BSPs, ESPs etc.) are described in separate

manuals.

Documentation Audience

This manual is written to cover, as far as possible, the range of people who will handle or use the PPC7A

including (but not limited to):

• Inspectors

• Installation technicians

• Hardware and software engineers

• System managers

While every effort has been made to keep the description of configuration, installation and power-up as

simple and user-friendly as possible, a certain amount of background knowledge on these subjects is

assumed.

In the Functional Description chapter, a higher degree of background knowledge is assumed on subjects

including:

• Single board computer architecture

• Peripherals

• The VMEbus

• Communications

There is a glossary provided at the back of this manual that explains some of the terms used and expands

abbreviations.

Scope of this Manual

This manual describes:

• All build standards of the PPC7A

• All variants of the PPC7A

This manual mentions, but does not describe in detail:

• PMCs, including the PMCPCI bridge product

• Carrier cards

• PPC7A on-board firmware

• Other firmware such as drivers, BSPs, ESPs etc.

• Application software

PPC7A Product Manual

Introduction

1-3

1st Edition

Structure of this Manual

This manual is structured in a way that will reflect the sequence of operations from receipt of the PPC7A

up to getting it working in your system. Each topic is covered in a separate chapter and each chapter

begins with a brief introduction that tells you what the chapter contains. In this way, you can skip any

chapters that are not applicable or with which you are already familiar.

The chapters are:

Chapter 1 (this chapter) - gives a brief introduction, this manual’s objectives, audience, scope,

structure and conventions, safety notices and associated documentation.

Chapter 2 - is a slightly more detailed, but still general product description.

Chapter 3 - contains inspection instructions and describes product identification.

Chapter 4 - describes board configuration.

Chapter 5 - describes the PPC7A’s connectors and signals used.

Chapter 6 - describes the PPC7A’s front panel.

Chapter 7 - describes installation of the PPC7A in a system and power-up.

Chapter 8 - is a functional description.

Chapter 9 - gives troubleshooting guidelines.

Appendix A - is a board specification.

There is also a glossary and an index provided.
