A key feature of the MVME240x family is the PCI bus. In addition to the 
on-board local bus devices (Ethernet, etc.), the PCI bus supports an 
industry-standard mezzanine interface, IEEE P1386.1 PCI Mezzanine 
Card (PMC).

PMC modules offer a variety of possibilities for I/O expansion such as 
FDDI (Fiber Distributed Data Interface), ATM (Asynchronous Transfer 
Mode), graphics, Ethernet, or SCSI ports. For a complete listing of 
available PMCs, go to the GroupIPC WorldWideWeb site at URL

. The MVME240x supports PMC front 

panel and rear P2 I/O. There is also provision for stacking one or two PMC 
carrier boards, or PMCspan PCI expansion modules, on the MVME240x 
for additional expansion.

The MVME240x supports two PMC slots. Two sets of four 64-pin 
connectors on the base board (J11 - J14, and J21 - J24) interface with 32-
bit/64-bit IEEE P1386.1 PMC-compatible mezzanines to add any 
desirable function. 

Refer to Appendix C for the pin assignments of the PMC connectors. For 
detailed programming information, refer to the PCI bus descriptions in the 
MVME2400-Series VME Processor Module Programmer’s Reference 
Guide and to the user documentation for the PMC modules you intend to 
use.

PMC slot 1 has the following characteristics:

S1B: Single width, standard depth (75mm x 150mm) 
with front panel
