SCSI Registers

4-47

field, see the definition for

SCSI Status One (SSTAT1)

bits [7:4].

SPL1

Latched SCSI Parity for SD[15:8]

3

This active HIGH bit reflects the SCSI odd parity signal
corresponding to the data latched into the most
significant byte in the

SCSI Input Data Latch (SIDL)

register.

R

Reserved

2

LDSC

Last Disconnect

1

This bit is used in conjunction with the Connected (CON)
bit in

SCSI Control One (SCNTL1)

. It allows the user to

detect the case in which a target device disconnects, and
then some SCSI device selects or reselects the
LSI53C875A. If the Connected bit is asserted and the
LDSC bit is asserted, a disconnect is indicated. This bit
is set when the Connected bit in SCNTL1 is off. This bit
is cleared when a Block Move instruction is executed
while the Connected bit in SCNTL1 is on.

SDP1

SCSI SDP1 Signal

0

This bit represents the active HIGH current state of the
SCSI SDP1 parity signal. It is unlatched and may change
as it is read.

Registers: 0x10–0x13

Data Structure Address (DSA)
Read/Write

DSA

Data Structure Address

[31:0]

This 32-bit register contains the base address used for all
table indirect calculations. The DSA register is usually
loaded prior to starting an I/O, but it is possible for a
SCRIPTS Memory Move to load the DSA during the I/O.

During any Memory-to-Memory Move operation, the
contents of this register are preserved. The power-up
value of this register is indeterminate.
