2.3.3Electromagnetic Compliance

These boards are designed and implemented to minimize susceptibility to electromagnetic emissions, and the effects of electromagnetic discharge. The boards are tested to comply with Class B and carry markings for CE, VCCI, Canada, C-Tick, and the FCC.

2.3.4Safety Characteristics

The bare boards meet the requirements of flammability rating UL 94 V-0. The bare boards are also marked with the supplier name or trademark, type, and UL flammability rating. Because these boards are installed in a PCI bus slot, all voltages are below the SELV 42.4 V limit.

2.4Operational Environment

Use the LSI Logic 2 Gbit/s family of FC host adapters in PCI-X or PCI Express computer systems with an Industry Standard Architecture/Extended Industry Standard Architecture (ISA/EISA) bracket type. The LSI Logic-supplied FC BIOS and firmware operate the host adapters. An on-board flash memory device and a serial EEPROM are provided to allow BIOS code and OpenBoot code support over the PCI bus.

2.4.1PCI-X Interface

The PCI-X interface operates as a 64-bit DMA bus master. The edge connector makes the PCI-X connection, which provides connections on both the front and back of the board. The signal definitions and pin numbers conform to the PCI-X/133 Specification, Revision 1.0a. Refer to that specification for details regarding the signal assignments.

2.4.2PCI Express Interface

The LSI Logic PCI Express interface operates as a x8 lane DMA bus master. The narrow edge connector makes the PCI Express connection, which provides connections on both the front and back of the board. The signal definitions and pin numbers conform to the PCI Express base Specification, Revision 1.0a. Refer to that specification for details regarding the signal assignments.
