SS8218
Ultra160 Multi-mode LVD/SE SCSI Terminator
Features
Auto-selectable multi-mode Single-Ended
General Description
The SS8218 Multi-mode LVD/SE SCSI terminator provides a smooth transition to the next generation of the SCSI Parallel Interface (SPI-3). It automatically senses the bus, via DIFFSENS, and switches the termination to either single-ended (SE) or low
voltage differential (LVD) SCSI, dependent on which type of devices are connected to the bus. If the SS8218 detects a HVD SCSI device, it switches to a high impedance state. For a 16-bit Wide SCSI bus to be operational, three SS8218 terminators are needed. The Multi-mode terminator contains all functions required to terminate and auto detect and switch modes for SCSI Parallel Interface (SPI) bus architectures. For the SE termination, one regulator and nine precision 110ohm resistors are used. For the LVD termination, the SS8218 integrates 18 regulated supplies with nine precision resistor strings.
or LVD Termination Meets SCSI-1, SCSI-2, SCSI-3 SPI Ultra (Fast-20), Ultra 2(SPI-2 LVD), Ultra160 (SPI-3 LVD) standards.
