Registers
Full Arbitration, Selection/Reselection
1. The LSI53C895A waits for a bus free condition.
2. It asserts SBSY/ and its SCSI ID (the highest priority
ID stored in the
register) onto the
SCSI bus.
3. If the SSEL/ signal is asserted by another SCSI device
or if the LSI53C895A detects a higher priority ID, the
LSI53C895A deasserts SBSY, deasserts its ID, and
waits until the next bus free state to try arbitration
again.
4. The LSI53C895A repeats arbitration until it wins
control of the SCSI bus. When it wins, the Won
Arbitration bit is set in the
register, bit 2.
5. The LSI53C895A performs selection by asserting the
following onto the SCSI bus: SSEL/, the target’s ID
(stored in the
register),
and the LSI53C895A’s ID (stored in the
register).
6. After a selection is complete, the Function Complete
bit is set in the
SCSI Interrupt Status Zero (SIST0)
register, bit 6.
7. If a selection time-out occurs, the Selection Time-Out
bit is set in the
SCSI Interrupt Status One (SIST1)
register, bit 2.
START
Start Sequence
5
When this bit is set, the LSI53C895A starts the arbitration
sequence indicated by the Arbitration Mode bits. The
Start Sequence bit is accessed directly in low level mode;
during SCSI SCRIPTS operations, this bit is controlled by
the SCRIPTS processor. Do not start an arbitration
sequence if the connected (CON) bit in the
register, bit 4, indicates that the
LSI53C895A is already connected to the SCSI bus. This
bit is automatically cleared when the arbitration sequence
is complete. If a sequence is aborted, check
bit 4 in the SCNTL1 register to verify that the
LSI53C895A is not connected to the SCSI bus.
