Operating Registers

4-93

Data Latch (SODL)

register cause the entire word

contained in SODL to be loaded into the FIFO. These
functions are summarized in the following table.

Registers: 0x50–0x51 (0xD0–0xD1)

SCSI Input Data Latch (SIDL)
Read Only

SIDL

SCSI Input Data Latch

[15:0]

This register is used primarily for diagnostic testing,
programmed I/O operation, or error recovery. Data
received from the SCSI bus can be read from this
register. Data can be written to the

SCSI Output Data

Latch (SODL)

register and then read back into the

LSI53C825A by reading this register to allow loopback
testing. When receiving SCSI data, the data flows into
this register and out to the host FIFO. This register differs
from the

SCSI Bus Data Lines (SBDL)

register;

SCSI

Input Data Latch (SIDL)

contains latched data and the

SCSI Bus Data Lines (SBDL)

always contains exactly

what is currently on the SCSI data bus. Reading this
register causes the SCSI parity bit to be checked, and
causes a parity error interrupt if the data is not valid. The
power-up values are indeterminate.
