Memory lnterfaces
The SYM53C1000R supports up to 1 MB of external expansion ROM through a
parallel interface, for add-in card designs. For ease of software development and
field upgrades of the ROM, the interface supports local programming of FLASH
memory. A serial 2-wire interface provides a connection to an external serial
EEPROM for storing Subsystem Vendor ID and Subsystem ID.
Software
The SYM53C1000R is supported with the proven SDMS software. SDMS software
enables the performance enhancements of Ultra160 data transfer speed increases
and improved PCI bus utilization capabilities included in the SYM53C1000R.
The SYM53C1000R reliability capabilities of AIP and CRC are enabled and
managed by the SDMS software. SDMS software implements the manageability
improvements of the LSI Logic SureLINK domain validation technology.
SureLINK technology extends standard domain validation with the addition of
full cable plant margining. The cable plant margining capability, exclusive to
LSI Logic
’
s Ultra160 solution, includes end-to-end margining from the
SYM53C1000R through LSI Logic
’
s SYM53C180 SCSI bus expander to the
target device. The domain validation capability of SDMS software is available as
an independent application as well as integrated in the DMI 2.0 based system man-
agement solution for enterprise class implementations. SDMS software includes
BIOS and OSV certified drivers for all major operating systems including DOS
with ASPI support, Windows 95/98, Windows NT/2000, UnixWare, OS/2,
NetWare, Solaris, and Linux. A complete set of SCSI utilities rounds out the
software solution, which includes a DMI 2.0 based system management software
for Windows NT, NetWare, UnixWare, Solaris and Linux, and a stand-alone or
snap-in DMI browser applet and SureLINK applet.
