NEW ULTRA320 SCSI FEATURES
Paced transfers and double transition clocking enable throughput of up
to 320 MBps on each channel for a total of 640 MBps. Both the data and
clock frequencies are doubled from Ultra160 SCSI. Because of the faster
data and clock speeds, Ultra320 SCSI introduces skew compensation and
InterSymbol Interference (ISI) compensation. These new features simplify system
design by resolving timing issues at the chip level. Skew compensation
adjusts for timing differences between data and clock signals caused by
cabling, board traces, etc. ISI compensation enhances the first pulse after a
change in state to ensure data integrity.
FUSION-MPT ARCHITECTURE
The LSI53C1030 incorporates LSI Logic’s Fusion-MPT (Message
Passing Technology) to deliver industry-leading performance and is based
on industry standard ARM technology to control the system interface and the
SCSI channels. These processors free the host CPU for other processing
tasks while maximizing overall I/O performance. The processing power of
the Fusion-MPT architecture also allows for advanced features such as
Integrated Mirroring™which provides a greater level of fault tolerance by
mirroring the boot volume.
Fusion-MPT is a message passing architecture provides an open
programming interface for developers and also allows a single binary
device driver to support both LSI Logic’s Ultra320 SCSI and Fibre Channel
solutions. The Fusion-MPT OS driver suite supports all major operating systems
including Windows NT and Windows 2000, Linux, Solaris, UnixWare, and
NetWare. High performance, easy to adopt, open programming interface,
all result is reduced software development, less integration and certification
time, and reduced time to market.
