6-22 Instruction Set of the I/O Processor
ACK Set/Clear SACK/ 6
ATN Set/Clear SATN/ 3
These twobits are used in conjunction with a Set or Clear
instruction to assert or deassert the corresponding SCSI
control signal. Bit 6 controls the SCSI SACK/signal. Bit 3
controls the SCSI SATN/signal.
Setting either of these bits sets or resets the
corresponding bit in the SCSI Output Control Latch
(SOCL) register, depending on the instruction used. The
Set instruction is used to assert SACK/ and/or SATN/on
the SCSI bus. The Clear instruction is used to deassert
SACK/ and/or SATN/on the SCSI bus.
Since SACK/and SATN/ are Initiator signals, they are not
asserted on the SCSI bus unless the LSI53C810A is
operating as an Initiator or the SCSI LoopbackEnable bit
is set in the SCSI TestTwo (STEST2) register.
The Set/Clear SCSI ACK/ATNinstruction is used after
message phase Block Move operations to give the
Initiator the opportunity to assert attention before
acknowledgingthe last message byte. For example, if the
initiator wishes to reject a message, it issues an Assert
SCSI ATNinstr uction beforea Clear SCSI ACK
instruction.
R Reserved [2:0]
6.4.2 Second Dword
SA Start Address [31:0]
This 32-bit field contains the memory address to fetch the
next instruction if the selection or reselection fails.
If relative or table relative addressing is used, this value
is a 24-bit signed offset relative to the current DMA
SCRIPTS Pointer (DSP) register value.
