MEVB QUICK START GUIDE
3.1 INTRODUCTION
This quick start guide is intended for the user who may not be familiar with
Motorola’s development tools. This chapter explains the MEVB hardware and
software set up for M68MEVB16R3 operation. Hardware set up consists of
configuring the MPB and MPFB jumper headers; software set up consists of
installing and running the appropriate macro script file within the debugger.
For the purpose of this quick start guide the MPB jumper headers should be
configured in their default positions. Chapter 2 of this manual contains the default
jumper header settings for the MPB.
3.2 CONFIGURING THE MPFB
The MPFB includes jumper-selectable options such as chip select usage, memory
type selection and memory size selection for the pseudo ROM sockets, and reset
data control.
NOTE
The MPFB must be configured for the specific MPB. Paragraph
3.2.2 provides a configuration for basic MPFB operation. For a
detailed description of the MPFB jumper header selections refer to
the M68MPFB1632 Modular Platform Board User’s Manual,
M68MPFB1632/D.

MPFB Memory Devices
Pseudo ROM refers to memory locations U2 & U4. The two pseudo ROM sockets
are generic memory sockets that accept a variety of RAM, EPROM, or EEPROM
devices. The pseudo ROM sockets, as shipped from the factory, contain two 32K
x 8 RAM devices. These memories are 28-pin package devices.
