[comp.sys.m68k] 68000 VME boards

rsanders@sunee.waterloo.edu (Roger Sanderson P.Eng.) (01/21/91)

We are looking for suppliers of single-board 68000 VME based CPU boards
to upgrade one of our teaching labs here at the University of Waterloo.
We need the following on one board:

	68000 CPU
	At least one serial port
	24 bits of parallel port (preferably 68230)
	RAM
	ROM with monitor similar to TUTOR
	VME bus based

We currently are using Plessey PME 68-1B boards, which seem to no longer
be available. If anyone has a lead on suppliers of such a board please
send me Email.

Thanks in advance.
Roger.

I've had good experience with Huerikon (sp) boards in the past.
We had VxWorks running as the kernel with Excelan ethernet cards.
This worked very well as a development environment hosted by Sun's.
In fact, Wind River Systems (VxWorks) and Sun Microsystems have
a version of dbxtool which supports remote debugging from the Sun
for code running on the VME board.  VxWorks supports a number of
different 68k cards and ethernet cards.

In addition to the boards in the Microware sourcebook, there are the
boards that they do much (most?) of their development on - Motorola.
In Canada, the number I have is 416-793-5700.  Email me if that
doesn't work out for you.

Based on the little you've said about your requirements, I'd probably
suggest looking at the MVME105 family first.
