GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Active SCSI termination helps to effectively control analog transmission line effects such as ringing, noise, crosstalk, and ground bounce. In addition, the ML6599 provides support for hot-insertability on the SCSI bus. Internal clamping controls signal assertion transients and provides current sink capability to handle active negation driver overshoots above 2.85V. It provides a 2.85V reference through an internal low dropout (1V) linear regulator. The ML6599 also provides a disconnect function which effectively removes the terminator from the SCSI bus. The disconnect mode capacitance is typically less than 5pF per line. Current limiting and thermal shutdown protection are also included. FEATURES
