7.5 Timing Rule
7.5 Timing Rule
Table 7.7 gives the timing required for operations on the SCSI bus.
Table 7.7 lists SCSI
Table 7.7 Timing specifications (1 of 3)
No. | Name | Standard | Timing specification |
|
|
|
|
1 | Arbitration Delay | 2.4 µs min. | The minimum wait period between the time the SCSI |
|
|
| device sends a BSY signal and the time the value on the |
|
|
| data bus for determining the priority of bus use is judged |
|
|
| in the ARBITRATION phase. A maximum time is not |
|
|
| defined. |
|
|
|
|
2 | Assertion Period | 15 ns min. | Minimum pulse width of an ACK signal sent by INIT |
|
|
| and an REQ signal sent by TARG for synchronous data |
|
|
| transfer. |
|
|
|
|
3 | Bus Clear Delay | 800 ns max. | Maximum allowable period between the time either of |
|
|
| the following events occurs and the time the SCSI |
|
|
| device stops driving all bus signals. |
|
|
| (1) Detection of the BUS FREE phase (when both |
|
|
| BSY and SEL signal become false during Bus |
|
|
| Settle Delay). |
|
|
| Note: |
|
|
| Maximum allowable period between the time both |
|
|
| BSY and SEL signal became false and the time the |
|
|
| bus is released is 1,200 ns. |
|
|
| An SCSI device that requires a period longer than |
|
|
| Bus Settle Delay for the detection of the BUS |
|
|
| FREE phase must release the bus within (Bus |
|
|
| Clear Delay) minus (Bus Settle Delay excess time). |
|
|
| (2) Another SCSI device asserts the SEL signal during |
|
|
| an ARBITRATION phase. |
|
|
| (3) The RST signal becomes true (RESET condition). |
|
|
|
|
4 | Bus Free Delay | 800 ns min. | Minimum wait period between the time the SCSI device |
|
|
| detects a BUS FREE phase and the time it sends a BSY |
|
|
| signal to initiate an ARBITRATION phase. |
|
|
|
|
5 | Bus Set Delay | 1.8 µs max. | Maximum allowable period between the time an SCSI |
|
|
| device detects a BUS FREE phase and the time it sends |
|
|
| BSY and SCSI ID signals to initiate an ARBITRATION |
|
|
| phase. |
