description

The SN75LBC970A SCSI differential converter­control is an adaptation of the industry’s first
9-channel RS-485 transceiver, the SN75LBC976.
When used in conjunction with one or more of its
companion data transceiver(s), SN75LBC971A,
the chip set provides the superior electrical
performance of differential SCSI from a single-en­ded SCSI bus controller. A 16-bit, Fast-SCSI bus
can be implemented with just three devices (two
for data and one for control) in the space-efficient,
56-pin, shrink small-outline package (SSOP) and
a few external components.

In a typical differential SCSI node, the SCSI
controller provides the enables for each external
RS-485 transceiver. This could require as many
as 27 additional terminals for a 16-bit differential
bus controller or relegate a 16-bit single-ended
controller to only an 8-bit differential bus. Using the standard nine SCSI control signals, the SN75LBC970A
control transceiver decodes the state of the bus and enables the SN75LBC971A data transceiver(s) to transmit
the single-ended SCSI input signals differentially to the cable or receive the differential cable signals and drive
the single-ended outputs to the controller.

The single-ended SCSI bus interface consists of CMOS bidirectional inputs and outputs. The drivers are rated
at ±16 mA of output current. The receiver inputs are pulled high with approximately 4 mA to eliminate the need
for external pullup resistors for the open-drain outputs of most single-ended SCSI controllers. The single-ended
side of the device is not intended to drive the SCSI bus directly.

Please be aware that an important notice concerning availability, standard warranty, and use in critical applications of
Texas Instruments semiconductor products and disclaimers thereto appears at the end of this data sheet.

description (continued)

The differential SCSI bus interface consists of
bipolar bidirectional inputs and outputs that meet
or exceed the requirements of EIA-485 and ISO
8482-1982/TIA TR30.2 referenced by the Ameri­can National Standard of Information Systems
(ANSI) X3.131-1994 Small Computer System
Interface-2 (SCSI-2).

The SN75LBC970A is characterized for operation
over the temperature range of 0°C to 70°C.

The SN75LBC970A consists of nine RS-485
differential transceivers, nine TTL- or CMOS-level
compatible transceivers, a state machine and
control logic block, a 20-MHz crystal-controlled
oscillator, a timer, a power-up/-down glitch
protection circuit, and a thermal-shutdown
protection circuit.

The single-ended or controller interface is
designated as the A side and the differential port
is the B side. Since the device uses the SCSI
control signals to decode the state of the bus and
data flow direction, the terminal assignments must
be matched to the corresponding signal on the
SCSI bus. The signal name followed by a minus
sign (–) indicates an active-low signal while a plus
sign (+) indicates an active-high signal.

A reset function, which disables all outputs and
clears internal latches, can be accomplished from
two external inputs and two internally-generated
signals. RESET

(Reset) and DSENS (differential
sense) are available to external circuits for a bus
reset or to disable all outputs should a
single-ended cable be inadvertently connected to
a differential connector. The power-up and
thermal-shutdown are internally generated sig­nals that have the same effect when the supply
voltage is below 3.5 V or the junction temperature
exceeds approximately 175°C.

This data sheet contains descriptions of the
SN75LBC970A input and output signals followed
by the electrical characteristics. The parameter
measurement information is followed by the
theory of operation, a state flow chart, and a
typical circuit in the application information
section.
