INIC-940

The Initio INIC-940, a single-chip PCI to UltraSCSI host adapter, provides a complete SCSI solution for PCI motherboard applications. The Initio INIC-940 supports the latest UltraSCSI standards, transferring data at up to 20 MBytes/second and takes advantage of the 133 MBytes/second burst rate of the PCI bus to provide superb I/O performance. INIC-940 supports a wide range of popular operating systems and has been extensively tested over a large matrix of peripherals and systems. In addition to the 8-bit UltraSCSI interface and 32-bit PCI 2.1 compliant interface, INIC-940 has a memory interface to access SEEPROM devices. INIC-940 has a SCSI protocol processor which handles all of the SCSI bus phases. The chip also provides support for external SCSI bus terminators and SCAM level 1. INIC-940 has an on chip advanced SCSI I/O cell which is capable of adjusting the slew rate on the SCSI signals to ensure signal integrity over different cabling environments. INIC-940 is available in a 160-pin PQFP.
