Characteristics of the LSI 6Gb/s HBAs
UART Connector (J2, J5). The UART connector debug port requires a special cable and LSI support to gather detailed
IOC status. Both of the UART headers use the following pinout.
3.1.9.4 Physical Characteristics
The LSISAS9202-16e HBA is 6.6-in. × 2.7-in. The component height on the top and bottom of the LSISAS9202-16e HBA
is in accordance with the PCIe specification.

 EC1: PCIe x16-lane board edge connector
 J3, Ports 0, 1, 2, 3: SFF-8644 mini-SAS HD external connectors
 CR1, CR2: Heartbeat LEDs
 J2, J5: UART connections
3.1.10 LSISAS9205-8e HBA Characteristics
3.1.10.1 Memory
The LSISAS9205-8e HBA provides one 4-M × 16-bit Flash ROM for storing the firmware and BIOS.
3.1.10.2 LED
The LSISAS9205-8e HBA heartbeat LED, CR1, blinks green to indicate that the HBA is capable of general activity.
3.1.10.3 Connectors
This section describes the different connectors on the LSISAS9205-8e HBA. See Figure 11 for connector locations.
PCIe Connector (EC1). The LSISAS9205-8e HBA supports a x8 interface. The PCIe host interface connection is
through the edge connector (EC1) which provides connections on both the top (EC1B) and bottom (EC1A) of the
board. The signal definitions and pin numbers conform to the PCIe specification.
