The LSI53C1000 contains a SCSI SCRIPTS™ processor that permits both DMA and SCSI commands to be fetched from host memory or internal SCRIPTS RAM. Algorithms written in SCSI SCRIPTS control the actions of the SCSI and DMA cores. The SCRIPTS processor executes complex SCSI bus sequences independently of the host CPU. In addition to this guide there is another reference that you will find useful. The LSI Logic PCI Storage Device Management System SDMS 4.0 User’s Guide contains product information an

1.2.2 SCSI Interface The SCSI interface is made through connectors J2 and J4. Figure 2.1 shows the location of these connectors. The SCSI interface includes these features: • Provides one wide Ultra160 SCSI channel • Provides two connectors: – 68-pin VHDCI for the external connection – 68-pin high density for the internal connection • Supports SE and LVD signaling: 16-bit SE or LVD interfaces • Supports LVD/SE termination • Supports Fast, Ultra, Ultra2, and Ultra160 data transfer capability – Ul

1.2.3 Board Characteristics The board characteristics are • PCI board dimensions Approximately 4.721 x 2.536 inches • Universal 32-bit PCI card edge connector • Standard bracket available 1.2.4 SCSI Activity LED Interface The J3 connector is a four-wire arrangement on the LSI20160 that represents the SCSI activity LED interface. Table 3.5 on page 3-8 lists the signal name and pin numbers for this LED interface. 1.3 Ultra160 SCSI Benefits Ultra160 SCSI is an extension of the SPI-3 draft standard t

1.3.2 Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) Ultra160 SCSI includes CRC which offers higher levels of data reliability by ensuring complete integrity of transferred data. CRC is a 32-bit scheme, referred to as CRC-32. CRC is guaranteed to detect all single bit errors, any two bits in error, or any combination of errors within a single 32-bit range. 1.3.3 Asynchronous Information Protection (AIP) The LSI53C1000 also supports AIP, which protects all nondata phases, including command, status, and messages.

Important: All bus devices must be LVD or SE. If a High Voltage Differential (HVD) device is detected, the board puts the SCSI bus in the high impedance state and shuts down. ® 1.6 TolerANT Technology Benefits The LSI20160 features TolerANT technology, which includes active negation on the SCSI drivers and input signal filtering on the SCSI receivers. The benefits of TolerANT technology include increased immunity to noise when the signal is going HIGH, better performance due to balanced duty cycles

Step 8. Connect the LED cable to J3 on your SCSI host adapter, if you wish to connect the LED to the SCSI LED connector. Step 9. Terminate the SCSI bus. The SCSI bus requires proper termination and no duplicate SCSI IDs. Step 10. Set the peripheral SCSI IDs. Step 11. Make any configuration changes. Step 12. Close your PC cabinet cover. Step 13. Make all external SCSI bus connections. Step 14. Refer to the PCI Storage Device Management System SDMS 4.0 User’s Guide (or the guide for the software yo
