(d) P1 (data group transfer enabled)
A signal that shall be continuously negated by the SCSI device driving the DB(15-0) signals and
shall be ignored by the SCSI device receiving the DB(15-0) signals during DT DATA phases.
(e) P_CRCA (PARITY/CRC AVAILABLE) (SELECTION phase, ST DATA phase, COMMAND phase,
MESSAGE phase, or STATUS phase)
A signal sourced by the SCSI device driving the data bus during these phases. This signal is
associated with the DB(7-0) signals and is used to detect the presence of an odd number of bit
errors within the byte. The parity bit is driven such that the number of logical ones in the byte plus
the parity bit is odd.
The parity bits (P1 and P_CRCA) is optional for the system. The IDD handles the data bus parity
as follows:
The IDD has the data bus parity check function, and can enable or disable the parity check.
See Section 5.3.2 "SCSI Parity" of the Product Manual for setup details.
When valid data is sent to the data bus from the IDD, the parity data is always guaranteed
except for the ARBITRATION phase.
(f) P_CRCA (data group transfer enabled)
A signal sourced by a target during DT DATA phases to control whether a data group field is a pad
field, pCRC field, or data field. When asserted the data group field shall be pad or pCRC fields
that shall not be transferred to the ULP. When negated the data group field shall be a data field that
shall be transferred to the ULP.
Note:
ULP is "Upper Level Protocol".
