1.1 Why Read This Document
The VAX 6000 series platform has changed to accommodate
features of the VAX 6000 Model 500. Several XMI I/O adapters
are also now available and can be installed in any XMI card
cage. A new power regulator, capable of providing enough
current at +3.3 volts for the VAX Model 500, is inhibited in
the H9657 cabinet for Models 300 and 400. A more powerful
battery backup unit (BBU) option, capable of providing
power to the entire backplane, is available.

Either a VAXBI with a TK70 or a CD server is required as a system load de-
vice.

In the XMI-2 backplane +5V and what was +5VBB are tied together. Since the
VAX 6000 Model 500 uses a writeback cache design, the CPU’s cache also needed bat-
tery backup and the need for a separate +5VBB to back up only memory disap-
peared. The H7236-A BBU delivers more power than the H7231-N BBU.
