DescriptionAdaptec AIC-7890 Single-chip PCI-to-Ultra2 SCSI (32 bit) Host Adapter
OverviewProviding outstanding performance and flexibility, the AIC-7890 and AIC-7891 single-chip host adapters meet tomorrow’s requirements today. They deliver Ultra2 SCSI data transfer rates up to 80 MByte/sec to address emerging bandwidth-hungry applications, such as real-time video, data mining, and scientific modeling and simulation. The AIC-7891 chip features a 64-bit PCI interface for next-generation workstations and servers. Both host adapters support extended cable lengths of 12 meters (or 25 meters in a point-to-point configuration), making them ideal for clustering and RAID configurations.Migration to new Ultra2 SCSI technology is easy with the AIC-7890 and AIC-7891 single-chip host adapters. Both accommodate new Ultra2 and earlier-generation SCSI peripherals. The chips are pin compatible to simplify board design and are available in a 272-pin Plastic Ball Grid Array (PBGA) package. Finally, Adaptec’s Common Hardware Interface Module (CHIM) provides software portability across system platforms as well as parallel and serial interfaces such as Ultra and Ultra2 SCSI, fibre channel, and hostbased RAID.
Product HightlightsUp to 80 Mbyte/sec data transfer rates Choice of 64-bit (AIC-7891) or 32-bit (AIC-7890) PCI interface Compliance with PC 97 and PCI 2.1 Advanced multimode I/O cell that accommodates either Ultra2 or legacy single-ended devices Supports up to 15 devices on a 12 meter cable
