The Motorola IPMC761-001 is a multifunction rear I/O PMC (PCI Mezzanine Card) module designed primarily for use with the MVME761 and MVME5100 series single-board computers. It serves as a versatile input/output expansion card that provides a range of communication interfaces and peripheral ports to extend system functionality in embedded computing environments.
This module integrates an 8-bit SCSI interface for high-speed data storage device connections, a Centronics-compatible parallel port for printer or other parallel device interfacing, and multiple serial communication ports including two asynchronous and two synchronous/async serial ports. These features make the IPMC761-001 ideal for applications requiring diverse I/O operations such as telecommunications, industrial automation, and data acquisition systems.
The module supports typical baud rates for asynchronous serial communication up to 38.4 Kbps for EIA-232 and 115 Kbps raw data rates, while synchronous ports can reach up to 2.5 Mbps. It uses TTL-level signaling interfaced through the P2 connector and front panel RJ-45 connectors. The design includes DMA support for ultra SCSI operation, enabling data rates as high as 20 MB/s (8-bit mode) or 40 MB/s (16-bit mode).
