Chapter 1 Using the LSI53C140
This chapter describes the LSI53C140 Ultra2 SCSI Bus Expander and its applications. It includes these topics:
Section 1.1, “General Description,” page 1-1
Section 1.2, “Applications,” page 1-3
Section 1.3, “Benefits of LVDlink,” page 1-7

1.1 General Description

The LSI53C140 is a single chip solution allowing the extension of SCSI device connectivity and/or cable length limits. A SCSI bus expander couples bus segments together without any impact to the SCSI protocol, software, or firmware. The LSI53C140 connects Single-Ended (SE) Ultra, Low Voltage Differential (LVD) Ultra2, or High Voltage Differential (HVD) peripherals together in any combination.
The LSI53C140 is capable of supporting any combination of bus mode SE, HVD, or LVD on either the A or B Side port. This provides the system designer with maximum flexibility in designing SCSI backplanes to accommodate any SCSI bus mode.
Figure 1.1 shows the three SCSI bus modes available on the A or B
Side. LVDlink™transceivers provide the multimode LVD, SE, or HVD capability.

The LSI53C140 provides additional control capability through the pin level isolation mode (Warm Swap Enable). This feature permits logical disconnection of both the A Side bus and the B Side bus without disrupting SCSI transfers currently in progress. For example, devices on the logically disconnected B Side can be swapped out while the A Side bus remains active.
The LSI53C140 is based on previous bus expander technology resulting in some signal filtering and retiming to maintain signal skew budgets. The LSI53C140 is independent of software.

1.2 Applications

The LSI53C140 supports these applications:

Figure 1.3 demonstrates how SCSI bus expanders are used to couple
bus segments together without any impact of the SCSI protocol or software. Configurations that use the LSI53C140 in the Ultra2 mode (LVD to LVD) allow the system designer to take advantage of the inherent cable distance, device connectivity, data reliability, and increased transfer rate benefits of LVD signaling with Ultra2 SCSI peripherals.

1.3 Benefits of LVDlink
The LSI53C140 supports LVD technology for SCSI, a signaling technology that increases the reliability of SCSI data transfers over longer distances than those supported by SE SCSI technology. The low current output of LVD allows the I/O transceivers to be integrated directly onto the chip. LVD provides the reliability of HVD SCSI technology without the added cost of external differential transceivers. LVD allows a longer SCSI cable and more devices on the bus. LVD provides a long-term migration path to even faster SCSI transfer rates without compromising signal integrity, cable length, or connectivity.

For backward compatibility to existing SE devices, the LSI53C140 features multimode LVDlink transceivers that can switch between LVD and SE modes.
Some features of integrated LVDlink Multimode transceivers are:
Supports SE, LVD, or HVD technology (HVD must have external
transceivers)
Allows greater device connectivity and longer cable length
LVDlink transceivers save the cost of external differential transceivers

Section 2.1, “Interface Signal Descriptions,” page 2-1

2.1 Interface Signal Descriptions

The LSI53C140 has no programmable registers, and therefore, no software requirements. SCSI control signals control all LSI53C140 functions. Figure 2.1 shows a block diagram of the LSI53C140 device divided into the following blocks:

In its simplest form, the LSI53C140 passes data and parity from a source bus to a load bus. The side asserting, deasserting, or releasing the SCSI signals is the source side. This model of the LSI53C140 represents pieces of wire that allow corresponding SCSI signals to flow from one side to the other side. The LSI53C140 monitors arbitration and selection by devices on the bus so it can enable the proper drivers to pass the signals along. In addition, the LSI53C140 does signal retiming to maintain the signal skew budget from the source bus to the load bus.

2.1.1 SCSI A Side and B Side Control Blocks

The SCSI A Side pins are connected internally to the corresponding SCSI B Side pins, forming bidirectional connections to the SCSI bus.
In the LVD/LVD mode, the SCSI A Side and B Side control blocks connect to both targets and initiators and accept any asynchronous or synchronous data transfer rates up to the 80 Mbytes/s rate of Wide Ultra2 SCSI. TolerANT®and LVDlink technologies are part of both the A Side and B Side control blocks.

2.1.1.1 LSI53C140 Requirements for Synchronous Negotiation
The LSI53C140 builds a table of information regarding devices on the bus in on-chip RAM. The Synchronous Data Transfer Request (SDTR) and Wide Data Transfer Request (WDTR) information for each device is taken from the MSG bytes during negotiation. For all devices in the configuration to communicate accurately with each other through the LSI53C140 at Ultra2 (Fast-40) rates, it is necessary for a complete synchronous negotiation to take place between the initiator and target(s) prior to any data transfer. On a 16-bit bus, the LSI53C140 at Ultra2 approaches rates of 80 Mbytes/s. The LSI53C140 defaults to Fast-20 rates when a valid negotiation between the initiator and target has not occurred.
2.1.1.2 TolerANT Technology
In the SE mode, the LSI53C140 features TolerANT technology, which includes active negation on the SCSI drivers and input signal filtering on the SCSI receivers. Active negation causes the SCSI Request, Acknowledge, Data, and Parity signals to be actively driven HIGH rather than passively pulled up by terminators.
TolerANT receiver technology improves data integrity in unreliable cabling environments, where other devices would be subject to data corruption. TolerANT receivers filter the SCSI bus signals to eliminate unwanted transitions without the long signal delays associated with RC-type input filters. This improved driver and receiver technology helps eliminate double clocking of data, which is the single biggest reliability issue with SCSI operations.
The benefits of TolerANT technology include increased immunity to noise on the deasserting signal edge, better performance due to balanced duty cycles, and improved SCSI transfer rates. In addition, TolerANT SCSI devices prevent glitches on the SCSI bus at power-up or power-down, so other devices on the bus are also protected from data corruption.
Interface Signal Descriptions 2-3
Ver. 2.1 Copyright © 1998–2001 by LSI Logic Corporation. All rights reserved.
2.1.1.3 LVDlink Technology
To support greater device connectivity and longer SCSI cables, the LSI53C140 features LVDlink technology, the LSI Logic implementation of multimode LVD SCSI. LVDlink transceivers provide the inherent reliability of differential SCSI, and a long-term migration path of faster SCSI transfer rates.
LVDlink technology is based on current drive. Its low output current reduces the power needed to drive the SCSI bus. Therefore, the I/O drivers can be integrated directly onto the chip. This reduces the cost and complexity compared to traditional (high power) differential designs. LVDlink lowers the amplitude of noise reflections and allows higher transmission frequencies.
The LVDlink transceivers in side A and side B operate in the LVD, HVD (external differential transceivers), or SE modes. The LSI53C140 automatically detects the type of signal connected, based on the voltages detected by A_DIFFSENS and B_DIFFSENS.

2.1.2 Retiming Logic

As SCSI signals propagate from one side of the LSI53C140 to the other side, the logic circuits that retime the bus signals process the SCSI signals, as needed. This guarantees or improves the required SCSI timings. The State Machine Controls govern the retiming logic that keeps track of SCSI phases, the location of initiator and target devices, and various timing functions. In addition, the retiming logic contains numerous delay elements that are periodically calibrated by the Precision Delay Control block. This calibration occurs in order to guarantee specified timing such as output pulse widths, setup and hold times, and others.
When a synchronous negotiation takes place between devices, a nexus is formed, and the on-chip RAM stores the corresponding information for that nexus. This information remains in place until a chip reset, power down, or renegotiation occurs. This enables the chips to make more accurate retiming adjustments.

2.1.3 Precision Delay Control

The Precision Delay Control block provides calibration information to the precision delay elements in the retiming logic block in order to maintain precise timing as signals propagate through the device. As the LSI53C140 operating conditions (such as voltage and temperature) vary over time, the Precision Delay Control block periodically updates the delay settings in the retiming logic to maintain constant and precise control over bus timing.

2.1.4 State Machine Control

The State Machine Control keeps track of the SCSI bus phase protocol and other internal operating conditions. This block provides signals to the retiming logic that identify how to properly handle SCSI bus signal retiming and protocol, based on observed bus conditions.

2.1.5 DIFFSENS Receiver

The LSI53C140 contains LVD DIFFSENS receivers that detect the voltage level on the A Side or B Side DIFFSENS lines to inform the LSI53C140 of the transmission mode being used by the SCSI buses. The LVD DIFFSENS receivers are capable of detecting the voltage level of incoming SCSI signals to determine whether it is from an SE, LVD, or HVD device. A device does not change its present signal driver or receiver mode based on the DIFFSENS voltage levels unless a new mode is sensed continuously for at least 100 ms.
Transmission mode detection for SE, LVD, or HVD is accomplished through the use of the DIFFSENS lines. Table 2.1 shows the voltages on the DIFFSENS lines and modes they will cause.

2.1.6 Dynamic Transmission Mode Changes

Any dynamic mode change (SE/LVD/HVD) on a bus segment is considered to be a significant event that requires the initiator to determine whether the mode change meets the requirements for that bus segment.
The LSI53C140 supports dynamic transmission mode changes by notifying the initiator(s) of changes in transmission mode (SE/LVD/HVD) on A or B side segments by using SCSI bus RESET. The DIFFSENS line detects a valid mode switch on the bus segments. After the DIFFSENS state is present for 100 ms, the LSI53C140 generates a SCSI reset on the opposite bus from the one that the transmission mode change occurred on. This reset informs any initiators residing on the opposite segment about the change in the transmission mode. Then, the initiator(s) renegotiates synchronous transfer rates with each device on that segment to ensure that there is a valid bus segment for that mode.

The signals named A_SD[15:0]± and A_SDP[1:0]± are the data and parity signals from the A Side, and B_SD[15:0]± and B_SDP[1:0]± are the data and parity signals from the B Side of the LSI53C140. The LSI53C140 sends and receives these signals by using SCSI compatible drivers and receiver logic designed into the LSI53C140 interfaces. This logic provides the multimode LVD and SE interfaces in the chip. This logic also provides the necessary drive, sense thresholds, and input hysteresis to function correctly in a SCSI bus environment.
The LSI53C140 receives data and parity signals and passes them from the source bus to the load bus and provides any necessary edge shifting to guarantee the skew budget for the load bus. Either side of the LSI53C140 may be the source bus or the load bus. The side that is asserting, deasserting, or releasing the SCSI signals is the source side. These steps describe the LSI53C140 data processing:
SCSI Signal Descriptions 2-7

1. The receiver logic accepts the asserted data as soon as it is received. Once the clock signal has been received, data is gated from the receiver latch.
2. The path is next tested to ensure the signal, if being driven by the LSI53C140, is not misinterpreted as an incoming signal.
3. The data is then leading edge filtered. The assertion edge is held for a specified time to prevent any signal bounce. The input signal controls the duration.
4. The next stage uses a latch to sample the signal. This provides a stable data window for the load bus.
5. The final step develops pull-up and pull-down controls for the SCSI I/O logic, including 3-state controls for the pull-up.
6. A parallel function ensures that bus (transmission line) recovery occurs for a specified time after the last signal deassertion on each signal line.

2.2.2 SCSI Bus Activity LED (BSY_LED)

Internal logic detects SCSI bus activity and generates a signal that produces an active HIGH output. This output can be used to drive a LED to indicate SCSI activity.
The internal circuitry is a digital one shot that is active HIGH with a minimum pulse width of 16 ms. The BSY_LED output current is 8 mA. This output may have an LED attached to it with the other lead of the LED grounded through a suitable resistor.

2.2.3 Select Control (SSEL)

A_SSEL and B_SSEL are control signals used during bus arbitration and selection. Whichever side asserts, SSEL propagates it to the other side. If both signals are asserted at the same time, the A Side receives SSEL and sends it to the B Side. This output has pull-down control for an open collector driver. The select control signals go through this process:
2-8 Functional Descriptions
Ver. 2.1 Copyright © 1998–2001 by LSI Logic Corporation. All rights reserved.
1. The input signal is blocked if it is being driven by the LSI53C140.
2. The next stage is a leading edge filter. This ensures that the output does not switch for a specified time after the leading edge. The duration of the input signal then determines the duration of the output.
3. A parallel function ensures that bus (transmission line) recovery occurs for a specified time after the last signal deassertion on each signal line.

2.2.4 Busy Control (SBSY)

A_SBSY and B_SBSY signals are propagated from the source bus to the load bus. The busy control signals go through this process:
1. The bus is tested to ensure the signal, if being driven by the LSI53C140, is not misinterpreted as an incoming signal.
2. The data is then leading edge filtered. The assertion edge is held for a specified time to prevent any signal bounce. The input signal controls the duration.
3. The signal path switches the long and short filters used in the circuit depending upon the current state of the LSI53C140. The current state of the LSI53C140 State Machine that tracks SCSI phases selects the mode. The short filter mode passes data through, while the long filter mode indicates the bus free state. When the Busy (SBSY) and Select (SSEL) sources switch from side to side, the long filter mode is used. This output is then fed to the output driver, which is a pull-down open collector only.
4. A parallel function ensures that bus (transmission line) recovery is availablefor a specified time after the last signal deassertion on each signal line.

2.2.5 Reset Control (SRST)

The controller passes the A_SRST and B_SRST signals from the source bus to the load bus. This output has pull-down control for an open collector driver. The controller processes these reset signals in this sequence:
SCSI Signal Descriptions 2-9
Ver. 2.1 Copyright © 1998–2001 by LSI Logic Corporation. All rights reserved.
1. The input signal is blocked if it is already being driven by the LSI53C140.
2. The next stage is a leading edge filter. This ensures that the output does not switch during a specified time after the leading edge. The duration of the input signal then determines the duration of the output.
3. A parallel function ensures that bus (transmission line) recovery occurs for a specified time after the last signal deassertion on each signal line.
When the LSI53C140 senses a true mode change on either bus, it generates a SCSI reset to the opposite bus. For example, when LVD mode changes to SE mode, a reset occurs.

2.2.6 Request and Acknowledge Control (SREQ and SACK)

The A_SREQ, A_SACK, B_SREQ, and B_SACK are clock and control signals. Their signal paths contain controls to guarantee minimum pulse widths, filter edges, and does some retiming when used as data transfer clocks. Only the leading edge is filtered in single transition clocking. SREQ and SACK have paths from the A Side to the B Side and from the B Side to the A Side. The received signal goes through these processing steps before being sent to the opposite bus:
1. The asserted input signal is sensed and forwarded to the next stage if the direction control permits it. State machines develop the direction controls that are driven by the sequence of bus control signals.
2. The signal must then pass the test of not being generated by the LSI53C140.
3. The next stage is a leading edge filter. This ensures that the output does not switch during the specified hold time after the leading edge. The duration of the input signal determines the duration of the output after the hold time. The circuit guarantees a minimum pulse rate.
4. The next stage passes the signal if it is not a data clock. If SREQ or SACK is a data clock, it delays the leading edge to improve data output setup times. The input signal again controls the duration.
2-10 Functional Descriptions
Ver. 2.1 Copyright © 1998–2001 by LSI Logic Corporation. All rights reserved.
5. This stage is a trailing edge signal filter. When the signal deasserts, the filter does not permit any signal bounce. The output signal deasserts at the first deasserted edge of the input signal.
6. The last stage develops pull-up and pull-down signals with drive and 3-state control.
7. A parallel function ensures that bus (transmission line) recovery occurs for a specified time after the last signal deassertion on each signal line.

2.2.7 Control/Data, Input/Output, Message, and Attention Controls (SCD, SIO, SMSG, and SATN)

A_SCD, A_SIO, A_SMSG, A_SATN, B_SCD, B_SIO, B_SMSG, and B_SATN are control signals that follow these processing steps:
1. The input signal is blocked if it is being driven by the LSI53C140.
2. The next stage is a leading edge filter. This ensures the output does not switch for a specified time after the leading edge. The duration of the input signal determines the duration of the output.
3. The final stage develops pull-up and pull-down controls for the SCSI I/O logic, including 3-state controls for the pull-up.
4. A parallel function ensures that bus (transmission line) recovery is for a specified time after the last signal deassertion on each signal line.

2.2.8 Differential Direction Control

A_SD[15:0], A_SDP[1:0], A_SBSY, A_SSEL, A_SCD, A_SIO, A_SMSG, A_SREQ, A_SACK, A_SATN, A_SRST, B_SD[15:0], B_SDP[1:0], B_SBSY, B_SSEL, B_SCD, B_SIO, B_SMSG, B_SREQ, B_SACK, B_SATN, and B_SRST are all multimode signals. The HVD_MODE input pins control the mode and the voltage is sensed at the DIFFSENS inputs.
When the system selects HVD signaling and the DIFFSENS line sees the proper voltage input, all the minus signal leads become SE inputs/outputs to HVD drivers/receivers. All plus signals become the HVD driver/receiver direction control signals. The A and B Sides are independently controlled. Table 2.2 describes the Direction Control signal polarity.

Table 2.2 Direction Control Signal Polarity
Signal Level State Effect
LOW = 0 Deasserted Input signals into the LSI53C140. HIGH = 1 Asserted Drive the LSI53C140 signals onto the bus.
When the system selects SE mode due to the lack of HVD_MODE and the correct DIFFSENS voltage, the plus signal leads are internally tied to ground and the minus SCSI signals become the SE input/outputs.
When the system selects LVD mode due to the lack of HVD_MODE and the correct DIFFSENS voltage, the plus and minus signal leads are differential signal pairs.

2.2.9 A and B HVD Mode (A_HVD_MODE and B_HVD_MODE)

These inputs inform the LSI53C140 that external drivers and receivers are used in this particular application. The effect of this control is to disable the LVDand SE modes of operation from the corresponding port.
Table 2.3 describes the HVD_MODE Control signal polarity.

2.2.10 A and B Differential Sense (A_DIFFSENS and B_DIFFSENS)

These control pins determine the mode of SCSI bus signaling that is expected. Table 2.4 describes the Mode Sense Control voltage levels.

Table 2.4 Mode Sense Control Voltage Levels
Voltage Mode
0.35 to +0.5 SE +0.7 to +1.9 LVD +2.4 to +5.5 HVD
For example, if a differential source is plugged into the B Side that has been configured to run in the differential mode and if a SE source is detected, then the B Side is disabled and no B Side signals are driven. This is a protection mechanism for SE interfaces that are connected to differential drivers.

2.2.11 Control Signals

This section provides information about RESET/, WS_ENABLE, and XFER_ACTIVE pins. It also describes the function of the CLOCK input.
2.2.11.1 Chip Reset (RESET/)
This general purpose chip reset forces all of the internal elements of the LSI53C140 into a known state. It brings the State Machine to an idle state and forces all controls to a passive state. The minimum RESET/ input asserted pulse width is 100 ns.
The LSI53C140 also contains an internal Power On Reset (POR) function that is ORed with the chip reset pin. This eliminates the need for an external chip reset if the power supply meets ramp up specifications. Table 2.5 describes the RESET/ Control signal polarity.

elements.
2.2.11.2 Warm Swap Enable (WS_ENABLE/)
This input removes the chip from an active bus without disturbing the current SCSI transaction (for Warm Swap). When the WS_ENABLE/ pin is asserted, after detection of the next bus free state, the SCSI signals are 3-stated. This occurs so that the LSI53C140 no longer passes through signals until the WS_ENABLE/ pin is deasserted HIGH and both SCSI buses enter the Bus Free state. As an indication that the chip is idle, or ready to be warm swapped, the XFER_ACTIVE signal deasserts LOW. An LED or some other indicator could be connected to the XFER_ACTIVE signal. This feature of Warm Swap Enable is to isolate buses in certain situations. Table 2.6 describes the WS_ENABLE/ signal polarity.

Signal Level State Effect
LOW = 0 Asserted Requests the LSI53C140 to go off-line after
HIGH = 1 Deasserted Enables the LSI53C140 to run normally.
2.2.11.3 Transfer Active (XFER_ACTIVE)
This output is an indication that the chip has finished its internal testing, the SCSI bus has entered a Bus Free state, and SCSI traffic can now pass from one bus to the other. The signal is asserted HIGH when the chip is active. Table 2.7 describes the XFER_ACTIVE signal polarity.

due to WS_ENABLE/ being low, thus disabling transfers through the device.

2.2.11.4 Clock (CLOCK)
This is the 40 MHz oscillator input to the LSI53C140. It is the clock source for the protocol control state machines and timing generation logic. This clock is not used in any bus signal transfer paths.

2.2.12 SCSI Termination

The terminator networks provide the biasing needed to pull signals to an inactive voltage level, and to match the impedance seen at the end of the cable with the characteristic impedance of the cable. Terminators must be installed at the extreme ends of each SCSI segment, and only at the ends. No SCSI segment should ever have more or less than two terminators installed and active. SCSI host adapters should provide a means of accommodating terminators. The terminators should be socketed, so they may be removed if not needed. Otherwise, the terminators should be disabled by means of software.
LSI Logic requires the use of multimode terminators because these terminators provide both LVD and SE termination, depending on what mode of operation is detected by the DIFFSENS pins. HVD requires a different termination configuration. The use of active termination is highly recommended.

3.2.2 TolerANT Technology Electrical Characteristics

The LSI53C140 features TolerANT technology, which includes active negation on the SCSI drivers and input signal filtering on the SCSI receivers. Active negation actively drives the SCSI Request, Acknowledge, Data, and Parity signals HIGH rather than allowing them to be passively pulled up by terminators. Table 3.15 provides electrical characteristics for SE SCSI signals. Figures 3.7 through 3.11 provide reference information for testing SCSI signals.

3.3 Mechanical Drawings

LSI Logic component dimensions conform to a current revision of the JEDEC Publication 95 standard package outline, using ANSI 14.5Y “Dimensioning and Tolerancing” interpretations. As JEDEC drawings are balloted and updated, changes may have occurred. To ensure the use of a current drawing, the JEDEC drawing revision level should be verified. Visit www.eia.org/jedec for review of Publication 95 drawings and revision levels.
For printed circuit board land patterns that will accept LSI Logic components, LSI Logic recommends that customers refer to the IPC standards (Institute for Interconnecting and Packaging Electronic Circuits). Specification number IPC-SM-782, “Surface Mount Design and Land Pattern Standard” is an established method of designing land patterns. Feature size and tolerances are industry standards based on IPC assumptions.

Appendix B Board Design Considerations
This appenidx describes the design considerations for using the LSI53C180 as a drop in replacement for the LSI53C140. Both chips are available as a 192-ball PBGA in a 23 x 23 mm package. This appendix also describes the differences in pin configurations required for operation of the two devices.
The LSI53C180 supports Ultra160 data transfer rates for an LVD bus and Ultra data transfer rates for an SE bus. The LSI53C180 does not support HVD. Thus, HVD mode enable pins for each port are no longer present. In the LSI53C140, pins B7 and A3 should be pulled to GND to disable HVD mode when operating in SE or LVD mode. These two pins are no connects in the LSI53C180.
The LSI53C180 has an independent RBIAS pin to control margining for each bus, rather than a single pin for both buses as implemented in the LSI53C140. A 10 kpull-up resistor on RBIAS is recommended to provide the correct margining. If initially designing for the LSI53C140 with the intention of upgrading to the LSI53C180 at a later time, a footprint from the pull-up resistor for the A-RBIAS signal should be implemented.
Table B.1 summarizes the information in the previous paragraphs.

External Configuration
All SCSI peripheral devices are external to the host enclosure.
External Terminator
The terminator that exists on the last peripheral device that terminates the end of the external SCSI bus.
Free In the context of Bus Free phase, “free” means that no SCSI device is
actively using the SCSI bus and, therefore, the bus is available for use.
Host A processor, usually consisting of the central processing unit and main
memory. Typically, a host communicates with other devices, such as peripherals and other hosts. On the SCSI bus, a host has a SCSI address.
Host Adapter Circuitry that translates between a processor's internal bus and a different
bus, such as SCSI. On the SCSI bus, a host adapter usually acts as an initiator.
Initiator A SCSI device that requests another SCSI device (a target) to perform an
operation. Usually, a host acts as an initiator and a peripheral device acts as a target.
Internal
All SCSI peripheral devices are internal to the host enclosure.
Configuration Internal
Terminator
The terminator that exists within the host that terminates the internal end of the SCSI bus.
I/O Input/Output – Driven by a target. I/O controls the direction of data
transfer on the SCSI Bus. When active, this signal indicates input to the initiator. When inactive, this signal indicates output from the initiator. This signal is also used to distinguish between the Selection and Reselection Phases.
I/O Cycle An I/O cycle is an Input (I/O Read) operation or Output (I/O Write)
operation that accesses the PC Card’s I/O address space.
Logical Unit The logical representation of a physical or virtual device, addressable
through a target. A physical device can have more than one logical unit.

Single-Ended Configuration
An electrical signal configuration that uses a single line for each signal, referenced to a ground path common to the other signal lines. The advantage of a single-ended configuration is that it uses half the pins, chips, and board area that differential/low-voltage differential configurations require. The main disadvantage of single-ended configurations is that they are vulnerable to common mode noise. Also, cable lengths are limited.
Synchronous Transmission
Transmission in which the sending and receiving devices operate continuously at the same frequency and are held in a desired phase relationship by correction devices. For buses, synchronous transmission is a timing protocol that uses a master clock and has a clock period.
Target A SCSI device that performs an operation requested by an initiator. Termination The electrical connection at each end of the SCSI bus, composed of a set
of resistors.
µs Microsecond. One millionth of a second. WDTR Wide Data Transfer Request messages are used to negotiate a wide data
transfer agreement between two SCSI devices. A WDTR agreement applies to all logical units of the two SCSI devices that negotiated the agreement.
