STW

SCSI FIFO Test Write

0

Setting this bit places the SCSI core into a test mode in
which the FIFO is easily written. While this bit is set,
writes to the

SCSI Output Data Latch (SODL)

register

cause the entire word contained in this register to be
loaded into the FIFO. Writing the least significant byte of
the

SCSI Output Data Latch (SODL)

register causes the

FIFO to load.

Register: 0x50 (0xD0)

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

LSI53C810A 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.
