he MVME162-533A is a 6U VME single-board computer developed by Motorola (later Emerson). It features:

• A 32-bit MC68040 (or MC68LC040) CPU, operating at 32 MHz (with options for 25 MHz) and equipped with 8KB cache, MMU, and FPU (for full 68040 models)

• Main memory ranging from 4MB up to 16MB DRAM, depending on the configuration

• 512 KB battery-backed SRAM plus 1MB onboard flash for firmware or monitor/debugger usage

Interfaces & Features

• VMEbus support: Full A32/D64 master-slave interface, including system controller capabilities and high-performance DMA (supporting VME D64 and local bus bursts)

• I/O Capabilities:

  • Up to four IndustryPack (IP) module slots for customizable I/O expansion

  • Built-in dual serial ports (RS-232).

  • Ethernet (via Intel 82596CA chipset) and SCSI interfaces on board, depending on the variant

Additional Technical Details

• Includes a VMEbus Interface ASIC supporting DMA and local bus operations, including performance figures (e.g., up to 42 MB/s bursts at 32 MHz)

• Designed for embedded industrial applications with robust features and optional reliability enhancements
