Intel 855GME Chipset
The VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC incorporate the latest Intel chipset technology, the 855GME. This chipset utilizes Advanced Hub Architecture (AHA). The AHA allows for increased system performance by separating many high-bandwidth I/O accesses from PCI accesses, relieving bottlenecks on the PCI bus. Furthermore, the 855GME chipset brings new levels of integration to motherboard chipsets and provides additional features such as Integrated LVDS and Serial ATA.

Installation
The VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC conform to the VME physical specification for a 6U board. The VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC can be used for system control or as a peripheral board. They can be plugged directly into any standard chassis accepting either type of board.
The following steps describe the GE Fanuc Embedded Systems-recommended method for installation and powerup of the VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC :
1. If a PMC module is to be used, connect it to the VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC prior to board installation (as shown in Figure 1-2 on page 29). Refer to the Product Manual for the PMC module for configuration and setup.
2. Insert the VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC into a VME chassis system controller or peripheral slot. While ensuring that the board is properly aligned and oriented in the supporting board guides, slide the board smoothly forward against the mating connectors. Use the ejector handles to firmly seat the board.
3. All needed peripherals can be accessed from the front panel or the rear I/O VMIACC-0586/ACC-0586RC or VMIACC-0590/ACC-0590RC Rear Transition Modules (RTMs). Each connector is clearly labeled on the front panel and detailed pinouts are in Appendix A.
4. Connect a keyboard and mouse if the system has not been previously configured.
5. The VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC feature an optional CompactFlash Disk resident on the board. Refer to Chapter 3 for set up details.
6. If an external drive module is installed, the BIOS Setup program must be used to configure the drive types. See Appendix B to properly configure the system.
7. If a drive module is present, install the operating system according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
BIOS Setup
The VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC have an onboard BIOS Setup program that controls many configuration options. These options are saved in a special non-volatile, battery-backed memory chip and are collectively referred to as the board’s ‘CMOS Configuration’. The CMOS configuration controls many details concerning the behavior of the hardware from the moment power is applied.
Details of the VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC BIOS setup program are included in Appendix B.

The front panel connectors, including connector pinouts and orientation, for the VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC are defined in Appendix A. Rear panel connections are defined in the appropiate RTM Installation Guide. Contact Sales for compatible RTMs offered by GE Fanuc Embedded Systems.
Introduction
The VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC are Pentium M processor-based single board computers compatible with modern industry standard desktop systems. The VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC therefore retain industry standard memory and I/O maps along with a standard interrupt architecture. The integrated peripherals described in this section (such as serial ports, USB ports, IDE drives, floppy drives, video controller and Ethernet controller) are all memory mapped the same as similarly equipped desktop systems, ensuring compatibility with modern operating systems.
The following sections describe the standard features of the VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC.
CPU
The VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC CPUs are factory populated with Pentium M processors. The CPU speed and Memory/CompactFlash size are user specified as part of the VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC ordering information.
Physical Memory
The VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC provide DDR Synchronous DRAM (SDRAM) as onboard system memory. Memory can be accessed as bytes, words or longwords.
The VMIVME-7807/VME-7807RC accept one 200-pin DDR SDRAM SODIMM along with the optional solder-in 512MB onboard memory, for a maximum capacity of 1.5GB. The onboard DRAM is accessible to the VME through the PCI-to-PCI bridge and is addressable by the local processor.
