ML6509
ML6509 is Active SCSI Terminator manufactured by Micro Linear.
DESCRIPTION
The ML6509 Bi CMOS SCSI terminator provides active termination in a SCSI system with single ended drivers and receivers, in full pliance with the SCSI-1, SCSI-2 and SCSI-3 remendations. It provides a 2.85V reference through an internal 1V dropout linear regulator. Active SCSI termination helps the system designer to effectively control analog transmission line effects like ringing, noise, crosstalk, ground bounce, etc. In addition it provides greater immunity to voltage drops on the TERMPWR line of the SCSI bus. The desired V-I characteristics for signal negation requires that the terminator source 0- 24m A while maintaining 2.85V and for signal assertion preferably follow a linear slope of 110W . The ML6509 attempts to provide a V-I characteristic optimized to minimize the transmission line effects during both signal assertion and negation, using a MOSFET based architecture. The desired V-I characteristic is achieved by trimming one resistor in the control block. It provides negative clamping for signal assertion transients and current sink capability, to handle active negation driver overshoots above 2.85V, which is currently acplished with external ponents in SCSI subsystems today. It provides a disconnect mode, where the terminator is pletely disconnected from the SCSI bus and the output capacitance is < 5p F, typically.
