Arbitration Mode Bits 1 and 0
[7:6]
Simple Arbitration
1.
The LSI53C876 waits for a bus free condition to
occur.
2.
It asserts SBSY/ and its SCSI ID (contained in the
register) onto the SCSI bus. If
the SSEL/ signal is asserted by another SCSI
device, the LSI53C876 deasserts SBSY/, deasserts
its ID, and sets the Lost Arbitration bit (bit 3) in the
register.
3.
After an arbitration delay, the CPU should read the
register to check if a
higher priority SCSI ID is present. If no higher
priority ID bit is set, and the Lost Arbitration bit is not
set, the LSI53C876 wins arbitration.
4.
Once the LSI53C876 wins arbitration, SSEL/ must
be asserted using the
for a bus clear plus a bus settle delay
(1.2
µ
s) before a low level selection is performed.
