Introduction

This manual provides programming information for the MVME240x
VME Processor Modules. Extensive programming information is
provided for the primary Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC)
devices used on the boards: the Hawk and Universe II chips. Reference
information is included in
Large Scale Integration (LSI) devices used on the boards and sources for
additional information are listed.
This chapter briefly describes the board level hardware features of the
MVME2400-series VME Processor Modules. The chapter begins with a
board level overview and features list. Memory maps are next and are the
major feature of this chapter.
Programmable registers in the MVME2400-series that reside in ASICs are
covered in the chapters on those ASICs.
