SIDL Most Significant Byte Full

 

 

7

This bit is set when the most significant byte in the SCSI Input Data Latch (SIDL) contains data. Data is transferred from the SCSI bus to the SCSI Input Data Latch register before being sent to the DMA FIFO and then to the host bus. The SIDL register contains SCSI data received asynchronously. Synchronous data received does not flow through this register.

ORF1

SODR Most Significant Byte Full

6

 

This bit is set when the most significant byte in the SCSI

 

Output Data register (SODR, a hidden buffer register

 

 

which is not accessible) contains data. The SODR

 

 

register is used by the SCSI logic as a second storage

 

 

register when sending data synchronously. It is not

 

 

accessible to the user. This bit is used to determine how

 

many bytes reside in the chip when an error occurs.

 

OLF1

SODL Most Significant Byte Full

5

 

This bit is set when the most significant byte in the SCSI

 

Output Data Latch (SODL) contains data. The SODL

 

 

register is the interface between the DMA logic and the

 

SCSI bus. In synchronous mode, data is transferred from

 

the host bus to the SODL register, and then to the SCSI

 

Output Data register (SODR, a hidden buffer register

 

 

which is not accessible) before being sent to the SCSI

 

 

bus. In asynchronous mode, data is transferred from the

 

host bus to the SODL register, and then to the SCSI bus.

 

The SODR buffer register is not used for asynchronous

 

transfers. It is possible to use this bit to determine how

 

 

many bytes reside in the chip when an error occurs.

 

FF4FIFO Flags, Bit 44

This is the most significant bit in the SCSI FIFO Flags field, when concatenated with bits [7:4] (FF[3:0]) in SCSI Status One (SSTAT1). For a complete description of this
