Description

B_GPIO0_
FETCH/

84, U11

I/O

16 mA

SCSI Function B General Purpose I/O pin 0.
Optionally, when driven LOW, indicates that the next
bus request is for an opcode fetch. This pin is
programmable at power-up through the MAD[7:6] pins
to serve as either the data or clock signal for the serial
EEPROM interface.

B_GPIO1_
MASTER/

86, Y12

I/O

16 mA

SCSI Function B General Purpose I/O pin 1.
Optionally, when driven LOW, indicates that the
LSI53C876 is bus master. This pin is programmable
at power-up through the MAD[7:6] pins to serve as
either the data or clock signal for the serial EEPROM
interface.

B_GPIO2

87, W12

I/O

16 mA

SCSI Function B General Purpose I/O pin 2.
B_GPIO2 powers up as an input.

B_GPIO3

88, V12

I/O

16 mA

SCSI Function B General Purpose I/O pin 3.
B_GPIO3 powers up as an input. Currently our drivers
use B_GPIO3 as a means to detect Diffsense.

B_GPIO4

89, U12

I/O

16 mA

SCSI Function B General Purpose I/O pin 4.
B_GPIO4 powers up as an output. It can be used as
the enable line for VPP, the 12 V power supply to the
external Flash memory interface.
