1.8.1 SCSI Performance
The LSI53C1030 contains the following SCSI performance features:
• Supports Ultra320 SCSI
– Paced transfers using a free running clock
– 320 Mbyte/s data transfer rate on each SCSI channel
– Mandatory packetized protocol
– Quick arbitrate and select (QAS)
– Skew compensation with bus training
– Transmitter precompensation to overcome ISI effects for SCSI
data signals
– Retained training information (RTI)
• Offers a performance optimized architecture
– Three ARM966E-S processors provide high performance with
low latency
– Two independent Ultra320 SCSI channels
– Designed for optimal packetized performance
• Uses proven integrated LVDlink transceivers for direct attach to
either LVD or SE SCSI buses with precision-controlled slew rates
• Supports expander communication protocol (ECP)
• Uses the Fusion-MPT (Message Passing Technology) drivers to
provide support for Windows, Linux
