LSI53C810A is in an information transfer phase. TolerANT active negation should be enabled to improve setup and deassertion times at fast SCSI timings. Active negation is disabled after reset or when this bit is cleared. For more information on TolerANT technology, refer to Chapter 1, “General Description.”

STR

SCSI FIFO Test Read

6

 

Setting this bit places the SCSI core into a test mode in

 

which the SCSI FIFO is easily read. Reading the SCSI

 

 

Output Data Latch (SODL) register causes the FIFO to

 

 

unload.

 

HSC

Halt SCSI Clock

5

 

Asserting this bit causes the internal divided SCSI clock

 

to come to a stop in a glitchless manner. This bit is used

 

for test purposes or to lower IDD during a power-down

 

 

mode.

 

DSI

Disable Single Initiator Response

4

 

If this bit is set, the LSI53C810A ignores all

 

 

bus-initiated selection attempts that employ the single

 

 

initiator option from SCSI-1. In order to select the

 

 

LSI53C810A while this bit is set, the LSI53C810A’s SCSI

 

ID and the initiator’s SCSI ID must both be asserted.

 

 

Assert this bit in SCSI-2 systems so that a single bit error

 

on the SCSI bus is not interpreted as a single initiator

 

 

response.

 

R

Reserved

3

TTM

Timer Test Mode

2

 

Setting this bit facilitates testing of the selection time-out,

 

general purpose, and handshake-to-handshake timers by

 

greatly reducing all three time-out periods. Setting this bit

 

starts all three timers and if the respective bits in the

 

 

SCSI Interrupt Enable One (SIEN1) register are set, the

 

LSI53C810A generates interrupts at time-out. This bit is

 

intended for internal manufacturing diagnosis and should

 

not be used.

 

CSF

Clear SCSI FIFO

1

Setting this bit causes the “full flags” for the SCSI FIFO to be cleared. This empties the FIFO. This bit is self-clearing. In addition to the SCSI FIFO pointers, the
