Single-Ended

SCSI

A hardware specification for connecting SCSI devices. It references each SCSI signal to a common ground. This is the most common method (as opposed to differential SCSI which uses a separate ground for each signal).

Termination

The electrical connection required at each end of the SCSI bus,

 

composed of a set of resistors. It improves the integrity of bus signals.

Ultra SCSI

A standard for SCSI data transfers. It allows a data transfer rate of up to

 

20 Mbytes/s over an 8-bit SCSI bus and up to 40 Mbytes/s over a 16-bit

 

SCSI bus. The SCSI Trade Association (STA) supports using the term

 

“Ultra SCSI” over the term “Fast-20”.
