Description

 

 

 

Assert SATN/ on Parity

SCSI Control

Causes the LSI53C810A to automatically assert SATN/

Errors

 

Zero (SCNTL0),

when it detects a parity error while operating as an

 

 

Bit 1

initiator.

 

 

 

Enable Parity Checking

SCSI Control

Enables the LSI53C810A to check for parity errors.

 

 

Zero (SCNTL0),

The LSI53C810A checks for odd parity.

 

 

Bit 3

 

 

 

 

Assert Even SCSI Parity

SCSI Control

Determines the SCSI parity sense generated by the

 

 

One (SCNTL1),

LSI53C810A to the SCSI bus.

 

 

Bit 2

 

 

 

 

Disable Halt on SATN/ or

SCSI Control

Causes the LSI53C810A not to halt operations when a

a Parity Error (Target

One (SCNTL1),

parity error is detected in target mode.

Mode Only)

 

Bit 5

 

 

 

 

Enable Parity Error

SCSI Interrupt

Determines whether the LSI53C810A generates an

Interrupt

 

Enable Zero

interrupt when it detects a SCSI parity error.

 

 

(SIEN0), Bit 0

 

 

 

 

 

Parity Error

 

SCSI Interrupt

This status bit is set whenever the LSI53C810A

 

 

Status Zero

detects a parity error on the SCSI bus.

 

 

(SIST0), Bit 0

 

 

 

 

Status of SCSI Parity

SCSI Status Zero

This status bit represents the active HIGH current state

Signal

 

(SSTAT0), Bit 0

of the SCSI SDP0 parity signal.

 

 

 

Latched SCSI Parity

SCSI Status One

This bit reflects the SCSI odd parity signal

 

 

(SSTAT1), Bit 3

corresponding to the data latched into the SCSI Input

 

 

 

Data Latch (SIDL) register.

 

 

 

Master Parity Error

Chip Test Four

Enables parity checking during master data phases.

Enable

 

(CTEST4), Bit 3

 

 

 

 

Master Data Parity Error

DMA Status

Set when the LSI53C810A, as a PCI master, detects a

 

 

(DSTAT), Bit 6

target device signaling a parity error during a data

 

 

 

phase.

 

 

 

Master Data Parity Error

DMA Interrupt

By clearing this bit, a Master Data Parity Error does not

Interrupt Enable

Enable (DIEN),

cause assertion of IRQ/, but the status bit is set in the

 

 

Bit 6

DMA Status (DSTAT) register.
