SCSI Interface
The Symbios Logic SYM5C875JE PCI-SCSI I/O Processor chip connects the SCSI bus
directly and generates timing and protocol in compliance with the SCSI standard. The
following hardware functional diagram shows the SCSI part of the SCSI/LAN Combo
board.

The SCSI interface operates as a 16-bit, synchronous or asynchronous, single-ended bus,
and supports Ultra SCSI protocols and 16-bit arbitration. The interface is made through
two (and only two) of the following connectors:

Comments
Connectors J3 and J9
cannot be connected
to any devices at the
same time. If they are,
this results in a badly
"terminated" SCSI
bus. Refer to the
previous page for
