Preface This document is the user’s guide for all LSI Logic Ultra320 SCSI Host Adapters. It contains a functional description of the Ultra320 SCSI host adapters as well as physical and electrical specifications. It also contains instructions for installing the host adapters and for connecting SCSI devices to them.
1.1 General Description LSI Logic provides high-performance, cost-effective Ultra320 SCSI controllers and host adapters. and their associated host adapters that support Ultra320 SCSI. For specific information about the Ultra320 SCSI controllers, refer to the Related Publications of an adapter name indicates a feature such as: A = low cost;...
(SE) devices and LVD devices, the entire bus drops to the lower SE speed, limiting bus performance to Ultra SCSI. The Ultra320 SCSI host adapters support all major operating systems (OS), such as Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, 2003, and XP), Linux, NetWare, UnixWare, SCO OpenServer 5.x, and Solaris SPARC.
Chapter 2 Detailed Host Adapter Installation This chapter provides detailed instructions on how to install the LSI Logic Ultra320 SCSI host adapters and includes these topics: Section 2.1, “Installing Your Ultra320 SCSI Host Adapter” Section 2.2, “SCSI Device Cables” Section 2.3, “Connecting SCSI Devices”...
Step 2. Open your computer cabinet by removing its cover. Step 3. Be sure to touch a grounded metal surface to discharge static Caution: Step 4. Remove your Ultra320 SCSI host adapter from its packaging Figure 2.1 illustrates the LSI22320E-R host adapter.
Step 5. Find an unused PCI/PCI-X/PCI Express slot. Note: 2.1.2 Inserting the Host Adapter Follow these steps to install your Ultra320 SCSI host adapter in the PC mainboard. Step 1. Remove the blank bracket panel on the back of the computer that Step 2.
2.2 SCSI Device Cables For reliable Ultra320 operation, be sure to use an Ultra320-rated SCSI device cable. The internal Ultra320 SCSI device cable also has built-in low voltage differential (LVD) and single-ended termination. This built-in feature is included because most LVD SCSI hard disk drives are not made with on-board low voltage differential termination.
Typically, you set the SCSI ID of the SCSI device with jumpers or with a switch on the device. You must not duplicate SCSI IDs on a SCSI bus. LSI Logic recommends that you record the SCSI IDs of all SCSI devices. Table 2.1 Table 2.1...
Integrated Striping™ (IS) solution, which provides features of RAID 0 By simplifying the IM and IS options and by providing firmware support in its host adapters, LSI Logic can offer the Integrated RAID solution at a lower cost than a dedicated processor based RAID implementation.
Dual Channel LSI22320E-R Dual Channel The component height on the top and bottom of the Ultra320 SCSI host adapters follows the PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.2, PCI-X Addendum to the PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 1.0a, and PCI Express to PCI/PCI-X Bridge Specification, Revision 1.0. The Ultra320 SCSI host adapters are used in PCI/PCI-X and PCI Express computer systems with PCI standard and PCI low profile bracket types.
3.1.2 LSIU320 and LSI20320A Single Channel Host Adapters The LSIU320 and LSI20320A series of host adapters are single channel Ultra320 SCSI host adapters that provide one Ultra320 SCSI channel. The SCSI Channel A interface for is made through connectors J2 and J3.
3.1.3 LSI21320 Dual Channel Host Adapters The LSI21320 series of host adapters are dual channel Ultra320 SCSI host adapters that provide two Ultra320 SCSI channels. The SCSI Channel A interface is made through connectors J2 and J4. The SCSI Channel B interface is made through connector J3.
3.1.4 LSI22320 Dual Channel Host Adapters The LSI22320 series of host adapters are dual channel Ultra320 SCSI host adapters that provide two Ultra320 SCSI channels. The SCSI Channel A interface is made through connectors J2 and J6. The SCSI Channel B interface is made through connectors J3 and J4. See Figure 3.4...
3.1.5 LSI22320E Dual Channel Host Adapters The LSI22320E series of host adapters are dual channel Ultra320 SCSI host adapters that provide two Ultra320 SCSI channels. The SCSI Channel A interface is made through connector J2. The SCSI Channel B interface is made through connectors J3 and J5. See...
3.3 Technical Specifications The design and implementation of the Ultra320 SCSI host adapters minimize electromagnetic emissions, susceptibility to radio frequency energy, and the effects of electrostatic discharge. The adapter carries the CE mark, C-Tick mark, FCC Self-Certification logo, Canadian...
5% to 90% noncondensing 3.3.3 Safety Characteristics All Ultra320 SCSI host adapters meet or exceed the requirements of UL flammability rating 94 V0. Each bare board is also marked with the supplier’s name or trademark, type, and UL flammability rating. Because these boards are installed in a PCI bus slot, all voltages are below the SELV 42.4 V limit.
The electrical connection required at each end of the SCSI bus, Termination composed of active voltage regulation and a set of termination resistors. Ultra SCSI, Ultra2 SCSI, Ultra160 SCSI, and Ultra320 SCSI require active termination. BIOS Basic Input/Output System. Software that provides basic read/write capability.

SCSI signal to a common ground. In contrast, differential SCSI uses a separate ground for each signal. SureLINK The domain validation method developed and used by LSI Logic. SureLINK Domain Validation provides three levels of integrity checking: Basic (level 1), Enhanced (level 2), and Margined (level 3).
