Version 3.0 ................... December 2009 • Added chapter 2—entitled “2P2 PMC/XMC Carrier Board” to consolidate the 2P2 PMC/XMC Carrier Board with the 2P2 and 2P3 PMC Carrier Boards into one manual. • Added board weights to the appropriate specification tables.
Thank you for purchasing the Themis PMC/XMC Carrier Board. The PMC/XMC Car- rier Board is an add-on expansion board for most Themis VME single-board computers, and supports two (on the 2P2 model) or three (on the 2P3 model) PMC and XMC (if sup- ported) plug-in modules.

1—2P2 PMC Carrier Board 2P2 PMC Carrier Board Overview User I/O on the 2P2 PMC Carrier Board can be accessed from both the front-panel and paddle-board connectors. In some instances, accessing a signal from one of these access sources prevents the signal from being accessed from the second source. For example, if TTYE is routed to the VME P2 backplane, then TTYE cannot be accessed from the front panel.
The VME P1 connector provides daisy-chaining of IACK and BG signals. There is no need to jumper those signals manually for the position occupied by the 2P2 PMC Carrier Board. See Table 1-1 on page 1-5 for the VME P1 connector pinouts.

There are two serial port connections available from the front panel of the 2P2 PMC Carrier Board or from the 2P2 PMC Carrier Board VME P2 bus. They are Serial Port E (TTYE—RS232) and Serial Port F (TTYF—RS232). These serial ports are sup- ported by the Siemens SAB82532 DUART serial controller, located on the 2P2 PMC Carrier Board.
Connectors 1.2.5 Ethernet Port B The 2P2 PMC Carrier Board features an RJ45 port on the Front Panel for 10/100 Base-T Ethernet connection. In units where only the Baseboard is present, a single network connection (Ethernet A) is available through the RJ45 connector. With the addition of a 2P2 PMC Carrier Board, a second network connection (Ethernet B) is available through the carrier board front panel.
Note: OBP records the value of the user-defined Rotary Switch as an OBP envi- ronment variable called themis-switch-value. The default value for this variable is 255 (0xff), which is assigned if the 2P2 PMC Carrier Board is not con- nected. If the board is connected, a value from 0 through 15 is assigned.

PCI Express per PMC/XMC module. (See Table 1 on page xii for a list of processor boards that support XMC modules.) Figure 2-2 on page 2-2 diagrams the functions of the 2P2 PMC/XMC Carrier Board. The 2P2 PMC/XMC Carrier Board works in conjunction with the following Themis systems: TC2D64, TA64, TPPC64, and TP32.
PMC/XMC Carrier Board Manual User I/O on the 2P2 PMC/XMC Carrier Board can be accessed from both the front-panel and paddle-board connectors. In some instances, accessing a signal from one of these access sources prevents the signal from being accessed from the second source. For exam- ple, if TTYE is routed to the VME P2 backplane, then TTYE cannot be accessed from the front panel.
2—2P2 PMC/XMC Carrier Board 2P2 PMC/XMC Carrier Board Overview The 2P2 PMC/XMC allows you to configure both the primary and secondary bus interfaces for one of four possible modes: 5V/33MHz, 3.3V/33MHz, 5V/66MHz, or 3.3V/66MHz. You configure the mode by setting solder beads SB87 and SB88 (volt- age setting) and SB69 and SB70 (frequency setting) (see Table 2-9 on page 2-20).
The VME P1 connector provides daisy-chaining of IACK and BG signals. There is no need to jumper those signals manually for the position occupied by the 2P2 PMC/XMC Carrier Board. See Table 2-1 on page 2-7 for the VME P1 connector pinouts.

2.2.4 Serial Ports E and F (RS232) There are two serial ports available on the 2P2 PMC/XMC Carrier board that may be routed to the front panel or the VME P2 connector—Serial Port E (TTYE—RS232) and Serial Port F (TTYF—RS232). These serial ports are supported by the Siemens EXAR XR16L2551 DUART serial controller, located on the 2P2 PMC/XMC Car- rier Board.
2.2.5 Gigabit Ethernet Port B The 2P2 PMC/XMC Carrier Board features a Gigabit Ethernet connection on its front panel. The Ethernet port is an RJ45 (10-pin; 8-pin external) GBE connector with two embedded LEDs (see Figure 2-10 and Table 2-8) supporting 10/100/1000 Base-T transmission.
2.2.6 Rotary Switch The 2P2 PMC/XMC Carrier Board provides a 16-position Rotary Switch that is connected to the Coolrunner Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD). This switch allows you to change the switch position from the PMC Carrier Board front panel. The 16 positions correspond to 16 user-defined meanings.
PMC/XMC Carrier Board Manual 2P2 PMC/XMC Carrier Board Solder Beads Solder beads are found on both the top side and bottom side of the 2P2 PMC/XMC Carrier Board and are described in Table 2-9. In Table 2-9, if no pad number is given, only 2 solder pads exist. If there are 3 or more solder pads, the two pads listed are shorted together.

PMC/XMC Carrier Board Manual Reassembling the Boards These instructions depict how to reassemble a Themis Multi-Slot VME Computer, after having disassembled it for the purpose of accessing a PMC module or replacing a battery. 1. Place the USPIIe Baseboard on the work surface, component side up, with the metal faceplate closest to you (VME P1 and P2 connectors pointed away from you), as shown in Figure A-6.
A—Disassembling and Reassembling Boards (Themis USPIIe Family of Computers) Reassembling the Boards Caution: Proper mating of the connectors is critical to avoid permanent damage to the assembly. If the connector and socket do not slip together halfway, from gravity alone, go back to Step 2 and re-check the alignment.
6. Apply a small amount of Loctite 222 MS (shown in Figure A-10) or a similar low- strength thread locker to the last few threads of all the screws. Refer to Figure A-11 and Figure A-12.
