Emerson / Motorola MVME147-011 25MHz, 4MB Single Board Computer

The Emerson/Motorola MVME147-011 is a VMEbus single-board computer built on the Motorola MC68030 32-bit microprocessor running at 25 MHz. This double-height 6U VME module delivers industrial-grade computation with integrated memory management, on-chip instruction/data cache, and optional floating-point coprocessor support. The board combines 4 MB DRAM, 4 KB SRAM, non-volatile timekeeping, and multi-protocol I/O—serial, parallel, SCSI, and Ethernet—in a compact form factor suitable for embedded systems requiring A32/D32 VMEbus master/slave operation and system controller functions.
