UCC5621
27 - Line SCSI Terminator With Split Reverse Disconnect
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
• Complies with SCSI, SCSI-2, SCSI-3, UCC5621 provides 27 lines of active termination for a SCSI (Small Com-
SPI and FAST-20 (Ultra) Standards
puter Systems Interface) parallel bus. The SCSI standard recommends ac-
tive termination at both ends of the cable.
• 2.5pF Channel Capacitance During
Disconnect
The UCC5621 is ideal for high performance 5V SCSI systems. During dis-
connect the supply current is typically only 100µA, which makes the IC at-
tractive for lower powered systems.
• 100µA Supply Current in Disconnect
Mode
The UCC5621 features a split reverse disconnect allowing the user to con-
trol termination lines 10 to 27 with disconnect one, DISCNCT1, and control
terminiation lines 1 to 9 with disconnect two, DISCNCT2.
• 4V To 7V Operation
• 110Ω Termination
The UCC5621 is designed with a low channel capacitance of 2.5pF, which
eliminates effects on signal integrity from disconnected terminators at in-
terim points on the bus.
• Completely Meets SCSI Hot Plugging
• –900mA Sourcing Current for
Termination
The power amplifier output stage allows the UCC5621 to source full termi-
nation current and sink active negation current when all termination lines
are actively negated.
• +500mA Sinking Current for Active
Negation
• Logic Command Disconnects all
Termination Lines
The UCC5621, as with all Unitrode terminators, is completely hot plugga-
ble and appears as high impedance at the teminating channels with
VTRMPWR = 0V or open.
• Split Reverse Controls Lines 1 to 9
and 10 to 27 Separately
Internal circuit trimming is utilized, first to trim the 110Ω impedance, and
then most importantly, to trim the output current as close to the maximum
SCSI-3 specification as possible, which maximizes noise margin in FAST-
20 SCSI operation.
• Trimmed Impedance to 5%
• Current Limit and Thermal Shutdown
Protection
