Figure 1-2. DAC960PG Controller Component Layout
1, 2, or 3 connectors on the top edge of the DAC960PG provide the interface
for internal SCSI devices. SCSI Channel 0 (and Channel 1 if installed) is
also available on the end of the card for connecting to external disk array
enclosures or other SCSI devices.
The DAC960PG controller uses a 32-bit RISC-based microprocessor, ASIC
logic arrays, and dedicated read/write cache memory to reduce the host
system’s CPU load and to increase disk I/O throughput (up to a 50 MB/
second sustained PCI transfer rate).
On-board memory required for operation is an EDO ECC (72 pin, 40 bit)
SIMM module. DAC960PG controllers equipped with EDO ECC RAM
deliver enhanced performance through zero wait-state CPU/SIOP burst-
cycle transfers between the DAC960PG cache and the host system. The
memory configuration on DAC960PG controllers may be 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, or
128 MB (60 ns, 0 wait states).
