System Configuration and Connectors
The EB164 uses jumpers to implement configuration parameters such
as variations in backup cache (Bcache) size, access timing, and speed, as
well as boot parameters. These jumpers must be configured for the user’s
environment. Onboard connectors are provided for the I/O interfaces, single
inline memory modules (SIMMs), and serial and parallel peripheral ports.
After the module is configured, power can be applied, and the debug monitor
can be run. The debug monitor and its commands are described in the Alpha
Microprocessors Evaluation Board Debug Monitor User’s Guide. Appendix C
provides information about other software design tools.
2.1 Configuration Jumpers
Figure 2–1 identifies the location of the software and hardware configuration
jumpers, and Table 2–1 provides descriptions. Figure 2–2 provides a detailed
view of the configuration jumpers and their function.
