functionality for the LSI21003 is contained within the LSI53C1010-33. The chip connects directly to the PCI bus and generates timing protocol in compliance with the PCI specification.

The PCI interface operates as a 32-bit DMA bus master. The connection is made through edge connector J1 (see Figure 2.1). The signal definitions and pin numbers conform to the PCI Local Bus Specification Revision 2.2 standard. The LSI21003 conforms to the PCI universal signaling environment for a 5 V or 3.3 V PCI bus.

1.3.2 The SCSI Interface

The SCSI functionality for the host adapter is also contained within the LSI53C1010-33. The chip connects directly to the two SCSI buses for SE or LVD SCSI applications and generates timing and protocol in compliance with SCSI standards. One SCSI interface operates at a burst transfer rate of up to 40 Mbytes/s for wide Ultra SCSI transfers, and the other up to 160 Mbytes/s for wide Ultra160 SCSI transfers.

Channel A is SE only with active autosensing termination. The Channel A interface is made through connectors J2, J3, and J4. Connector J2 is a 68-pin high density right-angle receptacle for internal SCSI connections. Connector J3 is a 50-pin high density right-angle receptacle that protrudes through the ISA/EISA bracket. Connector J4 is a 50-pin narrow (ribbon) internal connector.

Channel B may be either SE or LVD with active termination always enabled. The Channel B interface is made through connector J5. J5 is a 68-pin high density right-angle connector for internal SCSI connections.

See Figure 2.1 on page 2-5for the location of these connectors.

The LSI21003 supplies SCSI bus TERMPWR through a blocking diode and self-resetting 1.5 A short circuit protection device.

A 40 MHz oscillator on the host adapter provides the clock frequency to the LSI53C1010-33 that is necessary to support SCSI transfers.
