the DMAWR signal indicates that data is transferred from
the SCSI bus to the host bus. Deasserting the DMAWR
signal transfers data from the host bus to the SCSI bus.

BL2

Burst Length Bit 2

2

This bit works with bits 6 and 7 (BL[1:0]) in the

DMA Mode (DMODE)

,

0x38

register to determine the

burst length. For complete definitions of this field, refer to
the descriptions of DMODE bits 6 and 7. This bit is
disabled if an 112-byte FIFO is selected by clearing the
DMA FIFO Size bit.

BO[9:8]

DMA FIFO Byte Offset Counter, Bits [9:8]

[1:0]

These are the upper two bits of the DFBOC. The DFBOC
consists of these bits and the

DMA FIFO (DFIFO)

bits [7:0].

Register: 0x23

Chip Test Six (CTEST6)
Read/Write

DF[7:0]

DMA FIFO

[7:0]

Writing to this register writes data to the appropriate byte
lane of the DMA FIFO as determined by the FBL bits in
the

Chip Test Four (CTEST4)

register. Reading this

register unloads data from the appropriate byte lane of
the DMA FIFO as determined by the FBL bits in the
CTEST4 register. Data written to the FIFO is loaded into
the top of the FIFO. Data read out of the FIFO is taken
from the bottom. To prevent DMA data from being
corrupted, this register should not be accessed before
starting or restarting SCRIPTS operation. Write to this
register only when testing the DMA FIFO using the

Chip Test Four (CTEST4)

register. Writing to this register

while the test mode is not enabled produces
unexpected results.
