The following sections describe the standard features of the V7768/V7769. 2.1 BGA CPU The V7768 is factory populated with either an Intel Core 2 Duo or Celeron M processor. The V7769 is factory populated with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor.
The V7768/V7769 include 32 KByte of non-volatile SRAM which can be accessed by the CPU at any time, and is used to store system data that must not be lost during power-off conditions. NOTE Memory capacity may be extended as parts become available.

For a single function device, only INTA# may be used while the other three interrupt lines have no meaning. Figure 2-1 on page 42 depicts the V7768/V7769 interrupt logic pertaining to FPGA timer operations and the PCI expansion site.
PMC237 FPGA 2.6 Integrated Peripherals The V7768/V7769 incorporate an SMSC Super I/O (SIO) chip. The SIO provides the V7768/V7769 with two 16550 UART-compatible serial ports, keyboard and mouse ports, and general purpose I/O for system functions, available via the VME backplane connectors.
The RJ45 connector is used with the 10Base-T standard. 10Base-T has a maximum length of 100 meters. 100Base-TX The V7768/V7769 also support the 100Base-TX Ethernet. A network based on a 100Base-TX standard uses unshielded twisted-pair cables. 100Base-TX has a maximum length of 100 meters.
2.8 Video Graphics Adapter The SVGA port on the V7768/V7769 is controlled by the Intel 945GM Graphic and Memory Controller Hub (GMCH). The GMCH is hardware and BIOS compatible with the industry SVGA and digital video standards supporting both VESA high- resolution and extended video modes.
The V7768/V7769 support High Throughput DMA transfers of bytes, words and longwords in both Master and Slave configurations. If Endian conversion is not needed, GE offers a special “Bypass” mode that can be used to further enhance throughput (not available for byte transfers).
C/SMBus Temperature Sensor The MAX6659MEE can be monitored and controlled on the SMBus at address 0x98 for the V7768/V7769. This will allow the user to monitor and set up the alarm (OVERT2). For more information on the Maxim MAX6659MEE contact them directly at: 1-888-629-4642, or visit Maxim’s website at www.maxim-ic.com.
3.3 Timers The V7768/V7769 provide four user-programmable timers (two 16-bit and two 32-bit) which are completely dedicated to user applications and are not required for any standard system function. Each timer is clocked by independent generators with selectable rates of 2 MHz, 1 MHz, 500 kHz and 250 kHz. Each timer may be independently enabled and each is capable of generating a system interrupt on timeout.
Timers 1 & 2 are 16-bits wide and obtain their load count from the Timer 1 & 2 Load Count Register (TMRLCR12), located at offset 0x10 from the address in BAR2. The mapping of bits in this register is shown in Table 3-5. 48 V7768/V7769 Hardware Reference Manual...
Table 3-5 TMRLCR12 Bit Mapping Field Bits Read or Write Timer 2 Load Count TMRLCR12[31..16] Timer 1 Load Count TMRLCR12[15..0] When either of these fields are written (either by a single 32-bit write or separate 16-bit writes), the respective timer is loaded with the written value on the next rising edge of the timer clock, regardless of whether the timer is enabled or disabled.
The Timer 2 IRQ Clear (T2IC) register is used to clear an interrupt caused by Timer 2. Writing to this register, located at offset 0x34 from the address in BAR2, causes the interrupt from Timer 2 to be cleared. This can also be done by writing a 50 V7768/V7769 Hardware Reference Manual...
Register (TCSR1). This register is write only and the data written is irrelevant. 3.4 Watchdog Timer The V7768/V7769 provide a programmable Watchdog Timer (WDT) which can be used to reset the system if software integrity fails. 3.4.1 WDT Control Status Register (WCSR) The WDT is controlled and monitored by the WDT Control Status Register (WCSR) which is located at offset 0x08 from the address in BAR2.
3.5 NVRAM The V7768/V7769 provide 32 KByte of non-volatile RAM. This memory is mapped in 32K of address space starting at the address in BAR1. This memory is available at any time and supports byte, short word and long word accesses from the PCI bus.
8 GByte. This CompactFlash Disk appears to the user as an intelligent ATA (IDE) disk drive with the same functionality and capabilities as a “rotating media” IDE hard drive. The V7768 BIOS includes an option to allow the board to boot from the CompactFlash with user-provided operating system.
3.8 Remote Ethernet Booting The V7768/V7769 is capable of booting from a server using Gigabit Ethernet over a network utilizing the Boot ROM BIOS. The BIOS gives you the ability to remotely boot the V7768/V7769 using a PXE network protocol. The Ethernet must be connected through the GbE front panel (RJ45) connector to boot remotely.
8. Quality of cables and I/O connections If products must be returned, contact GE for a Return Material Authorization (RMA) Number. This RMA Number must be obtained prior to any return from Customer Care.
