Check Switches
Figure 1 illustrates the main header and switch locations on the top (processor) side of the
MPC8572EAMC. Users should follow this getting started guide prior to applying power to the card,
because incorrect board settings can cause permanent board damage.
Figure 1. MPC8572EAMC Primary Side Header Positions
1 Check Switches
1. DIP Switch settings should only be changed when power is NOT applied to the board.
2. The MPC8572EAMC board has three push button switches (SW1, SW2 and SW3), four Dual In
line Package (DIP) switches (SW4, SW5, SW500, and SW501), and eight jumper headers (J1–J7
and HD1). The default DIP switch positions provide Power On Reset configuration values for the
MPC8572EAMC board. Check the default positions and verify the board is operational before
changing the switches. The settings for the switches are shown in Figure 2, with their default
positions as described in Table 2. Table 6 gives a full list of all possible switch configurations.
3. Jumper headers J3, J6, and HD1 are reserved for factory test and are used to program the module
management controller and Reset/System CPLDs. Users should not attempt to reprogram the card
using these headers because this may result in permanent card damage. The jumpers should
remain in their default position as detailed in Table 3.

1. The heat sink must be fitted to the processor at all times.
2. Freescale recommends running the AdvancedMC in an ATCA, microTCA, picoTCA chassis or
equivalent. This delivers the correct power and air flow to the board. The board should be inserted
into the carrier chassis as per the specific carrier instructions. Please ensure the card is inserted the
correct way. An example is shown in Figure 3.

A complete list of all LEDs on the MPC8572EAMC is shown in Table 5.
1. Switch on the power to the chassis.
2. Check for the blue front panel LED and power good LEDs being illuminated (a full description of
the LED operation is given in Table 5).

Perform Initial Board Power Up and Check LEDs
3. When powered up:
a) Blue front panel LED remains illuminated as long as power is applied to the board (via the
AdvancedMC backplane connector).
b) Ethernet port activity LEDs switch on to indicate any Ethernet link to the front or back planes.
c) The “System Status” LED, LD507, switches on, then goes off once system configuration is
complete. LED LD506 should stay on indicating the processor is “Ready.”
d) Any USB UART activity is shown on LEDs D507 and D508.
4. Pressing the power cycle button (SW2) power cycles the board and start the reset sequence.
5. Pressing the reset button (SW3) starts the reset sequence only.

Connecting JTAG Debugging Tools to the Board
4 Connecting JTAG Debugging Tools to the Board
Figure 4 illustrates an example of how to connect a JTAG debugger to the MPC8572EAMC. The USB tap
debugging tool enables the CodeWarrior software IDE to work with the MPC8572EAMC board.
1. Connect the JTAG debugger unit to the JTAG 16-pin connector (J4).
2. Connect USB cable from Host PC (with CodeWarrior Power Architecture™ tools installed on it)
to CodeWarrior USB Tap. Figure 4 illustrates Freescale’s CodeWarrior debugger connected to the
MPC8572EAMC. Note the orientation of pin 1 (red edge of ribbon cable) with pin 1 on J4.
3. Switch on power to the board.
4. Check for completion of the reset sequence (see step 3) and power indicator on USB Tap.
5. Continue as per standard CodeWarrior instructions.
a) Contact your local FAE for the correct JTAG configuration file.

Module Management Support
both dual cores is provided via USB serial connector J2. Users should note that USB drivers should be
installed onto the host PC before the serial terminal can be used. These can be downloaded from the
following URL: http://www.ftdichip.com/FTDrivers.htm
A serial terminal can be setup using a PC communication program such as Hyperterminal set to 115200
baud rate. If the USB session hangs the terminal then the communication link must be disconnected and
then reconnected.
Any board settings that users wish to make should be checked for validity against a recent version of the
MPC8572E PowerQUICC™ III Integrated Host Processor Family Reference Manual. Operating the
board, or MPC8572E device, beyond the recommended device operating conditions may cause permanent
board damage.
Figure 5. MPC8572EAMC Front Panel Connectivity
6 Module Management Support
The MPC8572EAMC contains a CorEdge™-enabled module management controller (MMC), which
meets the PICMG and intelligent platform management interface (IPMI) AdvancedMC specifications.
This enables the board to be hot swapped in or out of an MMC-compatible system. To hot swap a board,
complete the following steps:
Hot swapping in a board:
1. Set switch SW4.4 to ON to select the MMC present option.

2. Insert the AdvancedMC into the slot with the handle extracted. The BLUE LED switches ON once
it is inserted.
3. Close the handle. The BLUE LED flashes and then switches OFF. The board powers up.
Hot swapping out a board:
1. Extract the hot swap handle
2. The BLUE LED flashes and then stays ON.
3. When the BLUE LED is ON, the AdvancedMC can be removed from the chassis.
