Real-Time Clock/NVRAM/Timer Function
The MVME240x employs an SGS-Thomson surface-mount M48T559 
RAM and clock chip to provide 8KB of non-volatile static RAM, a real-
time clock, and a watchdog timer function. This chip supplies a clock, 
oscillator, crystal, power failure detection, memory write protection, 8KB 
of NVRAM, and a battery in a package consisting of two parts:
A 28-pin 330mil SO device containing the real-time clock, the 
oscillator, power failure detection circuitry, timer logic, 8KB of 
static RAM, and gold-plated sockets for a battery
A SNAPHAT battery housing a crystal along with the battery
The SNAPHAT battery package is mounted on top of the M48T559 
device. The battery housing is keyed to prevent reverse insertion.
The clock furnishes seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month, and year in 
BCD 24-hour format. Corrections for 28-, 29- (leap year), and 30-day 
months are made automatically. The clock generates no interrupts. 
Although the M48T559 is an 8-bit device, 8-, 16-, and 32-bit accesses from 
the ISA bus to the M48T559 are supported. Refer to the MVME2400-
Series VME Processor Module Programmer’s Reference Guide
 and to the 
M48T559 data sheet for detailed programming and battery life 
information.
PCI Host Bridge (PHB)
The PHB portion of the Hawk ASIC provides the bridge function between 
the MPC60x bus and the PCI Local Bus. It provides 32 bit addressing and 
64 bit data. The 64 bit addressing (dual address cycle) is not supported. The 
Hawk supports various PowerPC processor external bus frequencies up to 
100MHz and PCI frequencies up to 33MHz.
There are four programmable map decoders for each direction to provide 
flexible address mappings between the MPC and the PCI Local Bus. Refer 
to the MVME2400-Series VME Processor Module Programmer’s 
Reference Guide
 for additional information and programming details.
