SCSI BUS
Table 7.7 Timing specifications (2 of 3)
No. | Name | Standard | Timing specification |
|
|
|
|
6 | Bus Settle Delay | 400 ns min. | Minimum wait period between the time a particular |
|
|
| control signal condition changes and the time the bus |
|
|
| condition is stabilized. |
|
|
|
|
7 | Cable Skew Delay | 3 ns max. | Maximum allowable difference in transmission time |
|
|
| over the interface cable between any two bus signals |
|
|
| from any two SCSI devices. |
|
|
|
|
8 | Data release Delay | 400 ns max. | Maximum allowable period between the time an I/O |
|
|
| signal changes its status from false to true and the time |
|
|
| the INIT stops driving data bus signals. |
|
|
|
|
9 | Deskew Delay | 15 ns min. | Time for compensation for skew involved in bus signal |
|
|
| transmission. |
|
|
|
|
10 | Hold Time | 16.5 ns min. | In synchronous data transfer mode, the minimum time |
|
|
| during which the transfer data on the DATA BUS from |
|
|
| the leading edge of the REQ or ACK signal pulse must |
|
|
| be maintained to compensate for the hold time in the |
|
|
| SCSI device receiving data. |
|
|
|
|
11 | Negation Period | 15 ns min. | In synchronous data transfer mode, the minimum time |
|
|
| from the trailing edge of an REQ signal to the leading |
|
|
| edge of the next REQ signal, or from the trailing edge of |
|
|
| an ACK signal to the leading edge of the next ACK |
|
|
| signal. |
|
|
|
|
12 | 10 sec max. | Maximum time from when the TARG is turned on to the | |
| Selection Time |
| time the TARG can post the correct status and sense data |
|
|
| for the TEST UNIT READY, INQUIRY or REQUEST |
|
|
| SENSE command. |
|
|
|
|
13 | Reset to Selection | 250 ms max. | Maximum time from when the RESET condition (hard |
| Time |
| RESET) is released to the time the TARG can post the |
|
|
| correct status and sense data for the TEST UNIT |
|
|
| READY, INQUIRY or REQUEST SENSE command. |
|
|
|
|
14 | Reset Hold Time | 25µs min. | The minimum time during which the RST signal must |
|
|
| be held true to create a RESET condition. A maximum |
|
|
| time is not defined. |
|
|
|
|
15 | Selection Abort | 200µs max. | In a SELECTION or RESELECTION phase, the |
| Time |
| maximum allowable period between the time the SCSI |
|
|
| device recognizes itself as selected and the time it |
|
|
| replies with a BSY signal. |
|
|
|
|
16 | Selection Timeout | 250 ms min. | In a SELECTION or RESELECTION phase, the |
| Delay | [Recommended | minimum time during which the INIT or TARG waits |
|
| value] | for a BSY signal from the SCSI device to be selected |
|
|
| before it initiates timeout processing. |
