The LSI21002 PCI-to-Ultra2 SCSI
dual channel host adapter supports a
wide variety of Fast and Ultra SCSI devices.
OVERVIEW
The LSI21002 dual channel PCI-to-Ultra2 SCSI host adapter board by
LSI Logic is designed for systems using high performance disks as well as
supporting a wide variety of Fast and Ultra SCSI devices. By using the
LSI53C896 dual channel PCI-to-Ultra2 SCSI controller chip to directly interface
to the PCI and SCSI buses, the LSI21002 is able to provide the high reliability
and cost effectiveness of a single-chip design. By having two complete and
separate SCSI channels, the LSI21002 can dedicate one channel, with full
connectivity, to high performance devices and the other channel, also with
full connectivity, to legacy SCSI devices.
Matching the performance of the 32-bit PCI bus to two independent SCSI
channels, the LSI21002 host adapter provides up to 120 MBps aggregate
SCSI throughput. With LSI Logic’s LVDlink™ (Low Voltage Differential) and
TolerANT™ technology, the LSI21002 provides unmatched performance,
device connectivity and signal reliability. LVDlink is LSI Logic’s implementation of the Universal
Low Voltage Differential standard. At last, one board provides a powerful
dual channel, scalable, multi-tasking interface for high performance SCSI
disk drives, CD-Rs, CD-RWs, scanners, interconnect, and other single-ended
or LVD SCSI devices. The dual channels increase to connectivity to up to 30
devices without utilizing an additional PCI slot or PCI load.
Designing systems with the LSI21002 is easy with one channel dedicated
to high performance LVD devices and the second dedicated to supporting
single-ended legacy devices. Or both channels can be used to support singleended devices.

• Ultra2 SCSI provides increased
connectivity (cable length and
number of SCSI devices
supported) over Ultra SCSI
• Automatic termination determined
by cabling environment provides
improved ease-of-use for the
OEM and the end user

The LSI21002 is a zero wait-state DMA bus master in 32-bit PCI bus
systems and supports PCI 64-bit Dual Address Cycles for greater system
memory addressability. Built to the PCI Universal board standards, the
LSI21002 works in 3.3 or 5 V PCI bus systems. The LSI21002 includes an
on-board configuration utility, allowing the viewing and changing of default
configuration settings for the host adapter and attached SCSI devices. It also
provides advanced ease-of-use features such as automatic termination
(depending on cable configuration) on the single-ended channel.
The advanced features of the LSI21002 32-bit host adapter make it the
right choice for high-performance desktops, workstations and servers.
SCSI DEVICE MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE (SDMS)
SDMS Software Features
• Multiple host adapter support
• Scatter/gather
• Tagged command queuing for peak performance in multi-tasking
environments
• Shared interrupts and shared memory to allow multiple PCI devices
in a single-interrupt system
• Multiple LUNs per SCSI ID for RAID and media changer capability
• ASPI interface support
• Multi-initiator in most operating systems
• Disconnect/reselect support
• Target initiated negotiation
• On-board, field upgradeable BIOS in Flash ROM
• On-board serial EEPROM for SCSI bus configuration storage
SDMS Software Support
Operating systems supported are: DOS (with ASPI support), Windows 3.1,
Windows for Workgroups 3.11, Windows 95, 98, Windows NT 3.51 &
4.0, Novell NetWare 3.2 & 4.1X, SCO UNIX Open Server 5.0.2 and
above, UNIXWare 2.1 & 7, OS/2.4X, and Solaris 2.6. Utilities: Install,
Flash utility (DOS only), SCSI format, SCSI configuration, verify.
SCSI AUTOMATIC TERMINATION
The LSI21002 PCI-to-Ultra2 SCSI host adapter automatically determines if
cables are attached to Channel A’s (single-ended only) SCSI connectors and
then properly enables/disables that channel’s SCSI terminators. Channel B
(LVD/SE channel) is always terminated.
PCI FEATURES
• Direct (bus master) memory access for low overhead with 32-bit burst data
transfers at 133 MBps for 32-bit PCI data transfer rates
• 33 MHz bus master with zero wait-state PCI transfers
• Up to 128 dword PCI burst rate to maximize the PCI data transfer rate
• Functions as one, 32-bit PCI DMA bus master
• Two independent DMA channels with internal arbitration
• Supports PCI write and invalidate, read Line, and read multiple commands
• Supports Dual Address Cycles (DAC) for system memory addressability > 4GB
• Complies with PCI bus power management specification, version 1.1
INTERRUPTS
The host adapter provides separate interrupts for each channel (channel
A routed to INTA# pin and channel B routed to INTB# pin).
SUBSYSTEM ID
The on-board LSI53C896 controller provides PCI configuration registers
for Subsystem ID and Subsystem Vendor ID. However, it is possible for OEMs
to develop custom software and store different numbers in the on-board serial
EEPROM while maintaining a standard board configuration.
HOST ADAPTER COMPATIBILITY AND QUALITY
