MOTOROLA MVME5500-0161
Applicable System
This module is a dedicated single board computer module for MOTOROLA MVME5500 Series, a core component for high-performance industrial embedded systems. Honestly, it’s not a universal CPU module—instead, it’s tailor-made for VMEbus infrastructure, perfectly compatible with existing VMEbus systems and MOTOROLA MVME series modules.It’s mainly applied in industrial automation, defense, aerospace and transportation fields, serving as the core computing unit for DCS control systems, industrial embedded control equipment and high-reliability electronic systems. You’ll often see it in scenarios that require stable, high-performance computing while maintaining backward compatibility with VMEbus infrastructure.
Q: What specific systems can it be used with?
A: It’s fully compatible with VMEbus systems, MOTOROLA MVME series modules (such as MVME51xx series), and various industrial DCS systems, ideal for embedded computing scenarios in harsh industrial environments.

Main Functions
To be honest, this module’s core job is to provide high-performance embedded computing for industrial systems—it’s powerful but super stable, acting as the “brain” of the entire control or computing system.
- High-performance computing: Equipped with 1GHz MPC7457 PowerPC® processor, with AltiVec coprocessor, supporting high-speed data processing and complex computing tasks.
- Memory and storage: Integrated 512KB on-chip L2 cache and 2MB L3 cache, with soldered flash memory (32MB and 8MB) for stable data storage.
- Bus and expansion: Supports dual independent 64-bit PCI buses and PMC sites, with Universe II VME interface, enabling flexible expansion of peripheral devices.
- Communication function: Provides one Gigabit Ethernet interface and one 10/100BaseTX Ethernet interface, plus two serial ports, ensuring stable data transmission.
- Backward compatibility: Compatible with MVME51xx series I/O, allowing users to upgrade systems without replacing existing VMEbus infrastructure.
There’s one point to note: It uses a powerful Marvell system controller, matching the high-speed processor with 133MHz host bus and SDRAM memory bus—way more efficient than ordinary single board computer modules.
