Features:
- 60 MHz MC68060 processor
- 16MB ECC-protected DRAM
- SCSI and Ethernet interfaces
MVME172-263 denotes the MVME172LX build that combines a 60 MHz MC68060 with 16MB of ECC DRAM and the documented SCSI/Ethernet option set.
Its integrated processing, error-correcting memory, network connection, storage interface, timers, and VMEbus logic suit embedded control tasks that require a self-contained double-high board.
Selection should be based on the full suffix; confirm P1/P2 backplane connections, the required transition hardware, firmware level, connected SCSI devices, and forced-air cooling before fitting the module.
Apter Power can quote the Motorola MVME172-263 MVME172LX VME Embedded Controller and help review its manual, interfaces, and system fit.

MC68060 processing and ECC memory
- Processor: The ordering table specifies a 60 MHz MC68060 for MVME172-263.
- Main memory: ECC protection covers 16MB ECC DRAM.
- Firmware: Resident firmware handles board initialization and the monitor functions described for the MVME172LX.
- Board role: ECC memory, local processing, and bus-control logic form a self-contained MVME172LX computing resource.
Storage, network, and VMEbus connections
- SCSI: MVME172-263 provides the documented storage/peripheral interface for supported devices.
- Ethernet: Its onboard Ethernet controller supplies the network path defined for this ordering configuration.
- VMEbus: The address and transfer modes must be aligned with the host chassis and application.
- System connection: Transition hardware and backplane routing determine how the onboard interfaces reach external equipment.
MVME172LX installation checks
- Board format: Allocate a double-high slot and check the P1/P2 backplane arrangement used by the MVME172LX installation.
- P1/P2 interface: Connector use and transition-module wiring must follow the Motorola installation drawing for this exact board.
- Cooling: Maintain the incoming and exit-air limits specified for the MVME172LX with continuous forced-air movement.
- Final check: Match transition hardware, SCSI cabling, Ethernet connection, firmware, and the complete -263 suffix.
