Overview

The MTX series motherboard consists of the MPC603e/604e processor, the Raven PCI Bridge and Interrupt Controller, the ECC Memory Controller Falcon chipset, 5M of Boot FLASH, ECC-protected DRAM, and a large set of I/O peripherals. The MTX will support single 603ev, single 604e processors, and dual 604e processors. In the dual processor configuration, the internal operating frequencies of the 604e’s are independently configurable. I/O peripheral devices on the PCI bus are: SCSI interface, Ethernet interface, two 64-bit PMC and one 64-bit PCI slot, or three 32-bit PCI slots.

Functions provided from the ISA bus are: two EIDE ports, a host mode P1284 parallel port, a peripheral mode P1284 parallel port, two async serial ports, two sync/async serial ports, a real time clock, and counters/timers. Rear panel connectors on the MTX motherboard include: a 6-pin circular DIN connector for the keyboard interface, a 6-pin circular DIN connector for the mouse interface, a 25-pin host mode parallel port connector, an RJ45 connector for 10/100BaseT connections, and a 15 pin connector for the AUI interface.

The MTX series can be populated with two IEEE1386.1 PCI Mezzanine Card (PMC) slots plus a 64-bit PCI slot, or with three 32-bit PCI slots. The 32-bit PCI slots support ATX standard I/O spacing. All slots use rear panel I/O. The 64-bit PCI slot supports a horizontal PCI card via a custom riser card. DRAM memory is added via DIMM sockets, and the serial presence detect (SPD) feature of the DIMM DRAMs is supported via the I2C bus controller.

Board Setup

If there are special jumper or ROM monitor settings, describe them.

Jumper J36 is used to disable on-board SCSI terminators and to disable the firmware negotiation of UltraSCSI.

  • To disable on-board SCSI terminators connect a jumper from J36-2 to J36-1.
  • To disable firmware negotiation of UltraSCSI connect a jumper from J36-3 to J36-4

The MTX motherboard contains two banks of FLASH memory. Bank A consists of two soldered-in 8-bit wide, 2 megabyte deep 3.3V FLASH SMT devices and appears as FLASH Bank A (16 bits wide) to the Falcon chipset. A resistor select enables write protect for Bank A (default configuration is software write protect enabled), individual 64K byte blocks can be write protected by software. The entire Bank A memory can be write protected by removing the resistor jumper (R71) that supplies write power to the devices.

Bank B consists of two sockets for 8-bit wide +5.0 volt FLASH SMT devices and appears as FLASH Bank B (16 bits wide) to the Falcon chipset. The bank B sockets support a maximum 512K byte FLASH in each socket. Bank B contains the onboard debugger, PPCBug.
