The SYM53C040 uses the SCSI bus to report system information such
as enclosure temperature, power supply status, and disk slot status to
the host SCSI controller. It also responds to host SCSI controller
commands by generating control outputs to enable and disable disk
slots, drive indicator displays, or perform other system tasks. The
SYM53C040 supports Low Voltage Differential (LVD) access as well as
Single-Ended (SE) SCSI access without the need for external
transceivers.
