2.3.2 Power Requirements
The board uses +5.0 V from the VMEbus backplane. On board power supply generates the
required voltages for the various ICs. The MVME2500 connects the +12 V and -12 V supplies
from the backplane to the PMC sites, while the +3.3 V power supplied to the PMC sites comes
from the +5.0 V backplane power. A maximum of 10 A of +3.3 V power is available to the PMC
sites, however the 90 W +5.0 V limit must be observed as well as any cooling limitations.
The following table provides an estimate of the typical and maximum power required.
Product Damage
-High humidity and condensation on the board surface causes short circuits.
-Do not operate the board outside the specified environmental limits.
-Make sure the board is completely dry and there is no moisture on any surface before
applying power.

2.7 Completing the Installation
The board is designed to operate as an application-specific computer blade or an intelligent I/O
board/carrier. It can be used in any slot in a VME chassis. Once the board is installed, you are
ready to connect peripherals and apply power to the board.
The console settings for the MVME2500 are:
-Eight bits per character
-One stop bit per character
-Parity disabled (no parity)
-Baud rate of 9600 baud
Verify that hardware is installed and the power/peripheral cables connected are appropriate
for your system configuration.
Replace the chassis or system cover, reconnect the chassis to power source, and turn the
equipment power on.
Product Damage
-RJ-45 connectors on modules are either twisted-pair Ethernet (TPE) or E1/T1/J1
network interfaces. Connecting an E1/T1/J1 line to an Ethernet connector may damage
your system.
-Make sure that TPE connectors near your working area are clearly marked as network
connectors.
-Verify that the length of an electric cable connected to a TPE bushing does not exceed
100 meters.
-Make sure the TPE bushing of the system is connected only to safety extra low voltage
circuits (SELV circuits).
-If in doubt, ask your system administrator.

3.2.1 Reset Switch
The MVME2500 has a single push button switch that has both the abort and reset functions.
Pressing the switch for less than three seconds generates an abort interrupt to the P20x0 QorIQ
PIC. Holding it down for more than three seconds will generate a hard reset. The VME SYSRESET
is generated if the MVME2500 is the VMEbus system controller.
3.3 LEDs
The MVME2500 utilizes light emitting diodes (LEDs) to provide a visible status indicator on the
front panel. These LEDs show power failures, power up states, Ethernet link/speed, ethernet
activity, SATA link and activity and PCI-E valid lane status. There are also a few user configurable
LEDs. Each LED description is necessary for troubleshooting and debugging.

single e500v2 core (P2010). It operates from 800 MHz up to 1.2GHz core frequency. The e500
processor core is a low-power implementation of the family of reduced instruction set
computing (RISC) embedded processor that implement the Book E definition of the PowerPC
architecture. The e500 is a 32-bit implementation of the Book E architecture using the lower
words of 64-bit general-purpose registers (GPRs) while E500v2 uses 36 bit physical addressing
and some improvement from the previous version.
4.2.2 Integrated Memory Controller
A fully programmable DDR SDRAM controller supports most JEDEC standard DDR2 and DDR3
memories available. Unbuffered registered DIMMs are also supported. A built-in error checking
and correction (ECC) ensures very low bit-error rates for reliable high-frequency operation.

Functional Description
MVME2500 Installation and Use (6806800L01H)
64
4.2.8 DUART
The chipset provides two universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter (UART), each of which
acts independently of the other. Each UART is clocked by the CCB clock and is compatible with
PC16522D. As a full-duplex interface, it provides a 16-byte FIFO for both transmitter and
receiver mode.
4.2.9 DMA Controller
The DMA controller transfers blocks of data between the various interfaces and functional
blocks of P20x0 that are independent of the e500 cores. The P20x0 DMA controller has three
high-speed DMA channels, all of which capable of complex data movement and advanced
transaction chaining.
4.2.10 Enhanced Three-Speed Ethernet Controller (eTSEC)
The eTSEC controller of the device communicates to the 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1 Gbps
Ethernet/IEE 802.3 networks, as well as to devices with generic 8 to 16-bit FIFO ports. The
MVME2500 uses the eTSEC using the RGMII interface.
4.2.11 General Purpose I/O (GPIO)
The P20x0 has a total of sixteen I/O ports. Four of these ports are used alternately used as
external input interrupt. All sixteen ports have open drain capabitilies.
4.2.12 Security Engine (SEC) 3.1
The integrated security engine of the P20x0 is designed to off-load intensive security functions
like key generation and exchange, authenticaion and bulk encryption from the processor core.
It includes eight different execution units where data flows in and out of an EU.
The P20x0 processor provides a Serial Rapid I/O interface. However, this interface is not
utilized by the MVME2500.
Functional Description
MVME2500 Installation and Use (6806800L01H) 65
4.2.13 Common On-Chip Processor (COP)
The COP is the debug interface of the QorIQ P20x0 Processor. It allows a remote computer
system to access and control the internal operation of the processor. The COP interface
connects primarily through the JTAG and has additional status monitoring signals. The COP has
additional features like breakpoints, watch points, register and memory
examination/modification and other standard debugging features.
4.2.14 P20x0 Hardware Configuration Pins
A series of strapping pins are required to initialize the P20x0. These pins are samples during the
assertion of HRESET and return to their assigned function after HRESET is deasserted.
4.3 System Memory
The processor integrated memory controller supports both DDR2 and DDR3 memory devices.
It has one channel and can be configured for up to four memory banks with x8, x16 and x32
devices. Using 4 GB devices allows support of up to 16 GB of memory. ECC is not supported.
The MVME2500 has a total of eight board variants, half of which has soldered 2 GB memory,
while the remaining half has 16 GB memeory. The x8 or 1 Gbit device forms 2 GB and 1 GB
memory capacity. A total of 16 devices for 2 GB and eight devices are used to form 16 GB.
MVME2500 supports ENP1 and ENP2 operating environment. The ENP1 environment uses
Samsung for all variants including the commercial grade devices, while the ENP2 variants use
Micron.
4.4 Timers
There are various timer functions implemented in the MVME2500 platform:
4.4.1 Real Time Clock
This operates on a 3.3 V supply monitoring and battery control function (MAX6364PUT29), a
32.768 KHz clock generator (DS32KHZS) and an RTC with alarm (DS1375T).
Functional Description
MVME2500 Installation and Use (6806800L01H)
66
See Real-Time Clock Battery, on page 77 for more information on the real time clock back-up
battery.
4.4.2 Internal Timer
The processor's internal timer is composed of eight global timers divided into two groups of
four timers each. Each time has four individual configuration registers and they cannot be
cascaded together.
4.4.3 Watchdog Timer
The onboard FPGA provides programmable 16-bit watchdog timers. It has a 1 ms resolution
and generates a board reset when the counter expires. Interrupt is generated to the processor
when this occurs. Default value is 60 seconds.
4.4.4 FPGA Tick Timer
The MVME2500 supports three independent 32-bit timers that are implemented on the FPGA
to provide fully programmable registers for the timers.
4.5 Ethernet Interfaces
The MVME2500 has three eTSEC controllers. Each one supports RGII, GMII, and SGMII interface
to the external PHY. All controllers can only be untilized when using the RGMII interface. Using
the GMII allows only up to two usable controllers.
MVME2500 provides two 10/100/1000 Ethernet interfaces on the front panel and another two
are routed to the RTM through the backplane connector. Due to controller limitations, one
controller is designed to be routed to the front panel or to the RTM. This setting is possible by
using a third party gigabit Ethernet LAN switch with a single enable switch such as PERICOM’s
P13L301D. The routing direction can be configured through the on-board dip switch.
Each Ethernet controller has a single dedicated Broadcom BCM54616S with integrated MAC
and PHY. The registers of the PHY can be accessed through the processor’s two-wire Ethernet
management interface.The front panel RJ45 connector has integrated speed and and activity
status indicator LEDs. Isolation transformers are provided onboard for each port.
Functional Description
MVME2500 Installation and Use (6806800L01H) 67
4.6 SPI Bus Interface
The enhanced serial peripheral interface (eSPI) allows the device to exchange data with
peripheral devices such as EEPROMs, RTC, Flash and the like. The eSPI is a full-duplex
synchronous, character-oriented channel that supports a simple interface such as receive,
transmit, clock and chip selects. The eSPI receiver and transmitter each have a FIFO of 32 Bytes.
P20x0 supports up to four chip selects and RapidS full clock cycle operation. It can operate both
full-duplex and half duplex. It works with a range of 4-bit to 16-bit data characters and is a
single-master environment. MVME2500 is configured such that the eSPI can operate up to 200
MHz clock rate and can support booting process.The firmware boot flash resides in the P20x0
eSPI bus interface.
4.6.1 SPI Flash Memory
The MVME2500 has two 8 MB onboard serial flash. Both contain the ENV variables and the U-
Boot firmware image, which is about 513 KB in size. Both SPI flash contain the same
programming for firmware redundancy and crisis recovery. The SPI flash can be programmed
through the JTAG interface or through an onboard SPI flash programming header.
For information on U-boot and ENV Variables location see, Flash Memory Map, Table 5-2 on
page 82.
4.6.2 SPI Flash Programming
The MVME2500 has three headers: a 10-pin header for SPI Flash programming, an 80-pin
header for the JTAG connectivity and a 20-pin JTAG header for ASSET hardware connectivity.
The following options are used to program the onboard flash:
-Using onboard SPI header - The MVME2500 uses the 10-pin header with a Dual SPI Flash in-
circuit programming configuration. The pin connection is compatible with DediProg SPI
Unversal Pin Header.
-Using 60-pin external JTAG header - An external JTAG board with a JTAG multiplexer is
compatible with the MVME2500 and can be attached using an external cable. It can be
used to update the boot loader in the field. Using this method, programming can be done
through the JTAG interface or by using the dedicated SPI Flash programming header on the
JTAG board.
Functional Description
MVME2500 Installation and Use (6806800L01H)
68
-Factory Pre-Programming - Programming the SPI Flash usually takes a while. Ideally, the
SPI Flash should be pre-programmed in the factory before shipment.
-ICT Programming - This programming is done on exposed test points using a bed of nails
tester.
4.6.3 Firmware Redundancy
The MVME2500 uses two physically separate boot devices to provide boot firmware
redundancy. Although the P20x0 provides four SPI Bus chip-selects, the P20x0 is only capable
of booting from the SPI Device controlled by Chip Select 0. External SPI multiplexing logic is
implemented on the MVME2500 to accomodate this chipset limitation.
The board power should be switched on before programming. The switch S2-8 should also be
powered on to successfully detect the SPI Flash chip.
Functional Description
MVME2500 Installation and Use (6806800L01H) 69
The MVME2500 FPGA controls the chip select to SPI devices A and B. The FPGA chip select
control is based on the Switch Bank (S2-2).
At power-up, the selection of the SPI boot device is strictly based upon the Switch Bank (S2-2)
setting. Depending on the S2-2 setting, SPI_SEL0 is routed to one of two SPI devices. The
selected SPI device must contain a boot image. Once the boot image is copied into memory
and executed, the FPGA will wait and once the P20x0 will write on one bit of the FPGA
watchdog register, the FPGA will then pass through the SPI chip select from the P20x0 to SPI
device chip selects. The software can now perform read/write processes on any SPI device,
including copying from one SPI device to another.
With this flexible approach to firmware redundancy, one should always be able to recover from
a corrupt active firmware image, as long as a healthy firmware image is maintained in single
bootable SPI Device.
Figure 4-2 SPI Device Multiplexing Logic
Functional Description
MVME2500 Installation and Use (6806800L01H)
70
The MVME2500 supports automatic switch over. If booting one device is not successful, the
watchdog will trigger the board reset and it will automatically boot on the other device.
4.6.4 Crisis Recovery
The MVME2500 provides an independent boot firmware recovery mechanism for the
operating system. The firmware recovery can be performed without leaving the firmware
environment.
During crisis recovery, the healthy boot image contained in SPI Device B is copied to SPI Device
A, replacing the corrupt boot image contained in SPI Device A.
Crisis recovery is performed as follows:
1. Power off the board.
2. Set Switch S2-2 to "ON" to point to SPI Device B (crisis image).
3. Power on the board.
4. Press "h" on the keyboard to go to the U-Boot prompt.
5. Type "moninit fru" to copy the crisis image to SPI Device A.
6. Once the U-Boot prompt is visible, power off the board.
7. Set the S2-3 back to "OFF" to point to the SPI Device A.
8. Power on the board to boot from the newly recovered image on the SPI Device A.
4.7 Front UART Control
The MVME2500 utilizes one of the two UART functions provided in the male micro-mini DB-9
front panel. A male-to-male micro-mini DB-9 to DB9 adapter cable is available under Emerson
Part Number SERIAL-MINI-D (30-W2400E01A) and is approximately 12 inches in length.
The board will automatically switch over if one of the devices is corrupted.
Functional Description
MVME2500 Installation and Use (6806800L01H) 71
Only 115200 bps and 9600 bps are supported. The default baud rate on the front panel serial
is 9600 kbps.
4.8 Rear UART Control
The MVME2500 utilizes the Exar ST16C554 quad UART (QUART) to provide four additional
ports to the RTM. These devices feature 16 bytes of transmit and receive first-in first-out (FIFO)
with selectable receive FIFO trigger levels and data rates of up to 1.5 Mbps. Each UART has a set
of registers that provide the user with operating status and control. The QUART are 8-bit
devices connected to the processor through the local bus controller using LBC chipset CS1,
CS2, CS3 and CS4.
These four serial interfaces are routed to P2 I/O for RTM accessibility. There are a total of five
serial ports available on the MVME2500.
4.9 PMC/XMC Sites
The MVME2500 hosts only one PMC/XMC site and accepts either a PMC or an XMC add-on
card. Only an XMC or a PMC may be populated at any given time as both occupy the same
physical space on the PCB. Combination PMC/XM cards are not supported by the MVME2500.
The site provides a rear PMC I/O.
The PMC site is fully compliant with the following:
1. VITA 39 –PCI-X for PMC
2. VITA 35-2000 for PMC P4 to VME P2 Connection
3. PCI Rev 2.2 for PCI Local Bus Specification.
4. PCI-X PT 2.0 for PCI-X Protocol Addendum to the PCI Local Bus Specs.
5. IEEE Standard P1386-2001 for Standard for Common Mezzanine Card Family
6. IEEE Standard P1386.1-2001 for Standard Physical and Environmental Layer for PCI
Mezzanine Card.
7. VITA 42 for XMC
8. VITA 42.3 , PCIe for XMC
Functional Description
MVME2500 Installation and Use (6806800L01H)
72
PMC/XMC sites are keyed for 3.3V PMC signaling. PMC and XMC add-on cards must have a hole
in the 3.3 V PMC keying position in order to be populated on the MVME2500. The XMC
specification accommodates this since it is expected that carrier cards will host both XMC and
PMC capable add-on cards.
MVME2500 utilizes the P20x0 x2 link PCI Express interface. It is designed such that the same
PCI-E interface is used for either PMC or XMC through Pericom’s PI2PCIE2412. It is PCI-E Gen2
compliant with four differential channel input and 2:1 MUX switch with single enable. The
enable pin is controlled by FPGA through onboard switch.
The onboard switch S2-4 determines the direction of the PCI-E MUX switch. The default setting
"OFF" routes the differential lines to the PMC. Otherwise, it is routed to the XMC connector.
4.9.1 PMC Add-on Card
The MVME2500 PMC interface utilizes IDT’s TSI384 as the PCie/PCI-X bridge. It can support up
to 8.5 Gbps (64 bits x 133 Mhz). The onboard switch S2-7 configures the TSI384 to run on
either 100 Mhz or 133 Mhz, with 133 Mhz as default.
The MVME2500 supports multi-function PMCs and processor PMCs (PrPMCs). The PMC site
has two IDSELs, two REQ/GNT pairs, and EREADY to support PrPMC as defined by VITA39.
4.9.2 XMC Add-on Card
The x2 links the PCI-E Gen 1 and is directly routed to the P15 XM connector through Pericom
MUX Switch. The onboard switch S2-4 should be set to "ON".
XMC add-on cards are required to operate at +5V or +12V (from carrier to XMC). The
MVME2500 provides +5V to the XMC VPWR (Variable Power) pins. The MVME2500 does not
provide +12V to the XMC VPWR pins. Voltage tolerances for VPWR and all carrier supplied
voltage (+3.3 V, +12 V, -12 V) are defined by the base XMC standard.
4.10 SATA Interface
The MVME2500 supports an optional 2.5" SATA HDD. The connector interface is compatible
with the Emerson SATAMNKIT, which contains the following: one SSD/HDD, one SATA board,
screws and a mounting guide. The SATA connector can support a horizontal mounted
SSD/HDD.
Functional Description
MVME2500 Installation and Use (6806800L01H) 73
The MVME2500 uses Marvell's 88SE6121B2-NAA2C000 SATA controller and supports up to 1.5
Gbps (SATA Gen 1). For status indicators, it has an onboard green LED, D12 and D13 for SATA
link and SATA activity status respectively.
4.11 VME Support
The MVME2500 can operate in either System Controller (SCON) mode or non-SCON mode, as
determined by the the switch setting of S1-1 and S1-2.
The P20x0 x1 link is used for the VME backplane connectivity through the Tsi384 (PCI-E/PCI-X)
and Tsi148 (PCI-X/VMEBus) bridges.
See VMEBus P1 Connector, on page 42 and VMEBus P2 Connector, on page 44 for more
information.
4.11.1 Tsi148 VME Controller
The VMEbus interface for the MVME2500 is provided by the Tsi148 VMEbus controller. The
Tsi148 provides the required VME, VME extensions, and 2eSST functions. TI
SN74VMEH22501transceivers are used to buffer the VME signals between the Tsi148 and the

to avoid conflict. For more information, see I2C Bus Device Addressing, on page 118.
4.14 Reset/Control FPGA
The FPGA provides the following functions:
-Power control and fault detection
-Reset sequence and reset management
-Status and control registers
-Miscellaneous control logic
-Watchdog timer
-32-bit Tick Timer
-Clock generator
-Switch decoder and LED controller
4.15 Power Management
The MVME2500 backplane is utilized to derive +3.3V, +2.5V, +1.8V, +1.5V, +1.2V, +1.05V
voltage rail. Each voltage rail is controlled by the FPGA through an enable pin of the regulator,
while the output is monitored through power good signal. If a voltage rail fails. the FPGA will
disable each supply. To restart the system, the chassis power switch must be powercycled.
4.15.1 Onboard Voltage Supply Requirement
The onboard power supply is considered to be out of regulation if the output voltage level is
below the minimum required power or goes beyond the maximum.

4.18 Thermal Management
The MVME2500 utilizes two on-board temperature sensors: one for the board and the other for
the CPU temperature sensor. The board temperature sensor is located near the dual RJ45
connector near the front panel. The CPU temperature sensor is located near the P2020 CPU.
The MVME2500 thermal management support will interrupt the process only to show the
current board and CPU temperature. This interrupt is routed directly to one of the processor’s
IRQ4.
The table below shows the low and high threshold temperature in order for the interrupt to be
asserted.

5.6 External Timer Registers
The MVME2500 provides a set of tick timer registers to access the three external timers
implemented in the timers/registers PLD. These registers are 32-bit and are word writable. The
following sections describe the timer prescaler and control registers.
5.6.1 Prescaler Register
The prescaler adjust value is determined by this formula:
Prescaler Adjust = 256-(CLKIN/CLKOUT)
CLKIN is the input clock source in MHz, and CLKOUT is the desired output clock reference in
MHz.
The prescaler provides the clock required by each of the three times. The tick timers require a
1 MHz clock input. The input clock to the prescaler is 25 MHz. The default value is set for
0x00E7, which gives a 1 MHz reference clock for a 25 MHz input clock source.
Field Description
Count Count. These bits define the watchdog timer count value. When the
watchdog counter is enabled, it will count up from zero (reset value) with a 1
ms resolution until it reaches the COUNT value set by this register. Watchdog
will generate a soft reset signal if it bites.
Setting this register to 0xEA60 or 60,000 counts will provide a watchdog
timeout of 60 seconds.

it compares with the compare register. When the bit is cleared the counter is
not reset.
COVF Clear Overflow Bits. The overflow counter is cleared when a 1 is written to this
bit.
OVF Overflow Bits are the output of the overflow counter. It increments each time
the tick timer sends an interrupt to the local bus interrupter. The overflow
counter can be cleared by writing a 1 to the COVF bit.
ENINT Enable Interrupt. When the bit is set, the interrupt is enabled. When the bit is
cleared, the interrupt is not enabled.
CINT Clear Interrupt.

5.6.3 Compare High and Low Word Registers
The tick timer counter is compared to the Compare Register. When the values are equal, the
tick timer interrupt is asserted and the overflow counter increments. If the clear-on-compare
mode is enable, the counter is also cleared. For periodic interrupts, this equation should be
used to calculate the compare value for a specific period (T):
Compare register value=T (us)
When programming the tick timer for periodic interrupt, the counter should be cleared to zero
by software and then enabled. If the counter does not initially start at zero, the time to the first
interrupt may be longer or shorter than expected. Note that the rollover time for the counter
is 71.6 minutes.
Since the processor is 16-bits and the tick timer is 32-bits, the compare register was split in half.
Accessing the whole register will require two transactions.

Boot System
6.1 Overview
The MVME2500 uses Das U-Boot, a boot loader software based on the GNU Public License. It
boots the blade and is the first software to be executed after the system is powered on.
Its main functions are:
-Initialize the hardware
-Pass boot parameters to the Linux kernel
-Start the Linux kernel
-Update Linux kernel and U-Boot images
This section describes U-Boot features and procedures that are specific to the MVME2500. For
general information on U-Boot, see http://www.denx.de/wiki/UBoot/WebHome.
6.2 Accessing U-Boot
1. Connect the board to a computer with a serial interface connector and a terminal emulation
software running on it. The serial connector of the board is found on the face plate.
2. Configure the terminal software to use the access parameters that are specified in U-Boot.
By default, the access parameters are as follows:
-Baud rate: 9600
-PC ANSI
-8 data bits
-No parity
-1 stop bit
3. Boot the MVME2500.
4. When prompted, press the "h" key.
These serial access parameters are the default values. These can be changed from within the
U-Boot. For details, refer to the U-Boot documentation.

3. TFTP the files from the server to local memory, then boot:
run vxboot
6.4 Using the Persistent Memory Feature
Persistent memory means that the RAM's memory is not deleted during a reset. Power cycling,
or by temporarily removing the power and then powering up the blade again, will delete the
memory content. Persistent memory feature is enabled by default.
This feature can be useful in many situations, including:
-Analyzing kernel logs after a Linux kernel panic
-Defining a particular memory region for the persistent storage of application specific data
Analyzing Kernel Log Files after a Kernel Panic
When a board that is running the Linux OS indicates a kernel panic, issue a reset (through the
face plate button, for example) to analyze the cause, then subsequently analyze kernel log files.
The persistent memory feature keeps the log files available in the memory.
To analyze the kernel log files:
1. Issue a reset.
2. Connect to U-Boot. For more information, see Accessing U-Boot on page 103.
3. Enter the following command to obtain memory addresses of the kernel log
files:.locate_kernel_log (1)
The memory addresses of any found kernel log files will be displayed.
4. Enter the following command to display the kernel logfile at any of these memory
addresses: .printf (<memory address>)
The persistent memory is useful in application-specific data storage. The standard U-Boot
variable pram can be used to reserve a memory region at the end of the physical memory to
prevent it from being overwritten. U-Boot reports less memory to the Linux kernel through the
mem parameter, indicating that the operating system should not use it either.
For more information, see the U-Boot documentation.

7.6 Other Software Considerations
This section provides programming information in relation to various board components.
7.6.1 MRAM
The MVME2500 provides 512 K bytes of fast, non-volatile storage in the form of
Magnetoresistive Random Access Memory (MRAM). The MRAM is directly accessible by
software using processor load and store instructions similar to the DRAM. The difference is that
the MRAM retains its contents even if the board is power cycled. The MRAM is accessed through
the LBC.
7.6.2 Real Time Clock
The MVME2500 provides a battery backed-up DS1375 Real Time Clock (RTC) chip. The RTC
chip provides time keeping and alarm interrupts. It is an I2C device and is accessed through the
I2C bus address at 0x68.
7.6.3 Quad UART
The MVME2500 console RS232 port is driven by the UART built into the P20x0 QorIQ chip.
Additionally, the MVME2500 has a Quad UART chip which provides four additional 16550
compatible UART. These additional UART are internally accessed through the LBC bus. The
Quad UART chip clock input (which is internally divided to generate the baud rate) is 1.8432
MHz. The four UART physically connect to RS232 DB9 serial ports through the RTM.
