Product Introduction
Rugged techs swear by Motorola MVME55006E-163R for hostile racks. This enhanced MVME5500E variant slams 1 GHz MPC7455 with AltiVec into 6U VME — built for -40 to +85 °C swings. Dual 66 MHz PCI buses feed PMCs; Universe II hits VME64x speeds; Gigabit Ethernet pairs with serial for mil-spec data nodes — though PMCs dictate final heat budget.
Stock at 13 units. North America/UK ships 1-2 weeks; Southeast Asia air freight 4 days. MOQ 1, net 30 terms. Bulk tiers cut 14% at 10+ pieces. US rugged VME depots stock equivalents. Field deployments log 80 °C junction peaks — conformal coat shines here.
Installation & Configuration Guide
Phase 1 — Pre-Installation (est. 10 min)
De-energize chassis. Discharge 5 min mandatory. Tools: ESD gear (rugged mat), camera, labels, Torx T10. Archive MOTLoad firmware. Photo conformal coating, mezzanine bay, P2 rugged connectors.
Phase 2 — Removal (est. 5 min)
Tag vibration-proof cables. Release DIN latch slow. Pull perpendicular — watch gold pins. Inspect for coating cracks. Slot photo logged.
Phase 3 — Installation (est. 10 min)
ESD bonded to ground. Confirm -163R markings. Match jumpers from shots — J18/J19 PMC defaults. Mezzanine first if fitted; latch double-clicks. Torque terminals 0.5 N·m vibration spec. Pre-list run.
Phase 4 — Power-On & Testing (est. 15 min)
Meter 5 V ±10%. Power sequence. LEDs: green RUN locked, red SYSFAIL persistent, amber STATUS strobe. Serial to MOTLoad. PMC rugged I/O cycles. Dual GbE links full duplex. 30 min shock table sim; temp rise <20 °C. Log under MIL spec.
Troubleshooting quick-reference
- GbE drop → Cat6 cable, force duplex, MDI-X auto.
- SYSFAIL latched → MOTLoad v2.x reload conformal safe.
- PMC fail → 66 MHz PCI lock, PN4 vibration secure.
