DESCRIPTION KEY FEATURES
The LX5121 Plug and Play UltraMAXTM terminator represents next-generation technology
for SCSI termination applications. The lowvoltage BiCMOS architecture employed in its
design offers superior performance to older
passive and active techniques.
Linfinity's architecture employs high-speed
adaptive elements for each channel, providing
the fastest response possible. The channel
bandwidth is typically 35MHz. The LX5121
compares favorably to older linear regulator
approaches whose bandwidth's are dominated by the output compensation capacitor
and are limited to the 500KHz bandwidth
region (see further discussion in the Functional
Description section). Linfinity's architecture
also eliminates the output compensation
capacitor typical in earlier terminator designs.
Each is approved for use with SCSI-1,-2,-3,
ULTRA and beyond — providing the highest
performance alternative available today.
Another key improvement of LX5121 products lies in their ability to ensure reliable, errorfree communications even in systems which
do not necessarily adhere to recommended
SCSI hardware design guidelines, such as the
use of improper cable lengths and imped-
ances. Frequently, this situation is not controlled by the peripheral or host designer and,
when problems occur, they are the first to
be made aware of these problems. The
LX5121 architecture is much more tolerant of
marginal system integrations.
Recognizing the needs of portable and
configurable peripherals, the LX5121 has a
TTL compatible sleep/disable mode. Typically, quiescent current is less than 150µA in
this mode.
Reduced component count is also inherent
in the LX5121 architecture. Traditional termination techniques require large stabilization and transient protection capacitors of up
to 20µF in value and size. The LX5121
architecture does not require these components, allowing all the cost savings associated
with inventory, board space, assembly, reliability, and component costs.
The LX5121 has multiple disables for full
Plug and Play SCSI capability for Host Bus
Adapters with 3 SCSI connectors. It also splits
the upper 9 termination lines for mixing 16bit (wide) and 8-bit (narrow) buses with
minimal board trace capacitance.
