CAUTION The PPC11A requires air-flow of at least 300 lfm for build levels 1 and 2, and at least 600 lfm for build level 3. If a conduction-cooled (level 4 or 5) PPC11A is operating on an extender card, it requires air-flow of at least 300 lfm across it.
If you need to return the product, contact Abaco. The PPC11A is sealed into an antistatic bag and housed in a padded cardboard box. Failure to use the correct packaging when storing or shipping the PPC11A may invalidate the warranty.

2 • Configuration Link Configuration The PPC11A has push-on jumpers included in the standard kit of parts; additional jumpers may be obtained on request. These are suitable for level 1 to 3 low vibration applications. For Level 4 and 5 products, make links by wire-wrapping between the pin posts and then cover these wire-...
Jumper Link Status Register (offset 0x6CD). If you are about to install your PPC11A and power-up for the first time, leaving it in the default configuration will enable board operation to be proven before tackling any further configuration issues. 2.3.1 Boot Area Selection Link (P15 Pins 1 to 4) The Boot Flash (for all processing cores) is divided into two sections, allowing for three different boot images to be loaded into the Flash.
2.3.2 NVRAM Write Enable Link (P15 Pins 5 and 6) This link controls the write protection for the NVRAM device on the PPC11A. This device holds firmware boot parameters as well as user data. Table 2-2 P15 Pins 5 and 6 Jumper Function...
2.3.6 Reserved Links (P17 and P18) These are reserved for use by Abaco only. Do not fit jumpers on these links Software Board Configuration The PPC11A contains two I EEPROM DIP Switch devices, which may be used to configure additional options under software control. For details on how to monitor or change these settings, see the appropriate software reference manual.
Mezzanine Installation As shown below, the PPC11A has two mezzanine sites that both support PMCs and ANSI/VITA42.3-compliant XMCs (including support for front-panel I/O in build levels 1 to 3). The two sites allow for the fitting of two single-width PMCs/XMCs or one double-width PMC/XMC.
Page 23
The power dissipation of any XMC fitted should be considered. An XMC with high power dissipation could cause the temperature of the PPC11A to rise beyond an acceptable limit. The magnitude of the effect of the XMC largely depends on the XMC thermal solution, and needs to be considered on a case-by-case basis.
PPC11A. The following notices also apply: CAUTION Consult the enclosure documentation to ensure that the PPC11A’s power requirements are compatible with those supplied by the backplane. Power Supply Requirements The PPC11A can only operate from a 5V main supply input.
The on-board power supplies are also monitored for correct operation, and the PPC11A is prevented from powering up and held in reset if any supply fails to operate correctly.
PCI-X operation at up to 133 MHz, allowing for off-the-shelf or custom PMCs to be fitted to add further functionality to the PPC11A. Both sites also support XMCs, providing a x4 PCIe link to each site, for higher bandwidth connectivity to the host and high-speed rear I/O (site 1 to P0 only).
Figure 4-3 Block Diagram (T1042) NOTES Due to the increasingly short lifetimes of system components, the I/O devices used on the PPC11A are not guaranteed to remain fixed in the future. Hardware should be accessed only through mechanisms provided by the Operating System’s Board Support Package, and not directly by application software.

0x636). 4.5.4 Flash Sector Protection The PPC11A uses Cypress S29GL Flash devices, which provide advanced methods of sector protection to ensure the integrity of code data contained in the Flash array. Protection is defined on a per-sector basis, where a sector is 128 KB in size. Locked sectors cannot be erased or programmed, they may only be read.
Flash is protected by default and cannot be unprotected by the user. NAND Flash Solid State Drive The PPC11A optionally provides an on-board 32 GB NAND Flash Solid State Drive (SSD). The device used is a Silicon Motion SM651GEB SATA NANDrive device connected to a SATA port of a Marvell PCIe to SATA controller.
VME Interface The PPC11A uses an IDT Universe II PCI-to-VME bridge, accessed from the processor PCIe interface via a Pericom PI7C9X110B PCIe to PCI bridge, to provide a full master/slave VME interface. The Universe IID is compliant with the following standards: American National Standard for VME64 (ANSI/VITA 1.0 - 1994 (R2002))
VMEbus address to access any on-board address. The start address and size of window are programmable. VMEbus slave accesses to the PPC11A may be coupled, write posted or pre-fetched block read. Coupled slave transfers can only proceed once the slave posted write FIFO is empty.
Several options are available, including stopping the operation and purging the offending transaction. A bus error during a DMA operation raises an interrupt and stops the DMA operation on the bus where the error was detected. 38 PPC11A 6U VME Single Board Computer Publication No. PPC11A-HRM/1...

4.19.1 Processor The PPC11A supports a x4 link between the host processor and each central PCIe Switch (see overleaf). The link uses serdes lanes A to D on the host processor to connect to the first PCIe switch and serdes lanes E to H to connect to the second PCIe switch.
4.19.2 PCIe Switches The PPC11A has two PEX8619 16-lane PCIe switches, which connect the processor to PCIe devices as shown in Figures and 4-3. The default switch port configurations are shown below. Table 4-24 PCIe Switch 1 Connections Port Lane(s)

The PPC11A has three main I C buses: 1. The ‘Main’ Bus. This is internal to the PPC11A and provides access by the processor to various slave devices. 2. The ‘Sensor’ Bus. This is mastered by the Board Management Microcontroller (BMM) and provides access to various sensor devices.

The PPC11A has an STMicroelectronics LIS33HH motion sensor. 4.20.11 Power Manager The PPC11A uses a Lattice L-ASC10 power manager to sequence the power supplies in the required order for devices. The power manager also monitors each rail, and its voltage can be read from registers internal to the device, across the I C interface.

If a mezzanine site is populated, then the mezzanine must either implement JTAG or loop the chain through, otherwise the other site in the chain will not be reachable. The PPC11A provides no terminations for the mezzanine sites, since no active circuits are connected.

The user LEDs (DS44 and DS45) are switched off at power-up and are used by BIT, when they are illuminated yellow. See the PPC11A BIT documentation for more details. Once BIT has finished, these tri-color LEDs are software controlled and user-programmable.
NOTE If you are fitting a non-Abaco PMC, it must comply with the standard for rugged, conduction-cooled PMCs (VITA20-2001) to ensure that it mates correctly with the PPC11A mechanics. Abaco PMCs comply with this standard. 68 PPC11A 6U VME Single Board Computer...
