Do not install jumpers at both W1 and W12. Spindle Synchronization Option ------------------------------- The Rotational Position Locking field (MODE SELECT command, Page Code 04h) is used to specify spindle synchronization operation. Unsynchronized: If the drive is set to Unsynchronized (RPL = 00b), it ignores the SLAVE SYNC signal. Slave: If the drive is set to Slave (RPL = 01b), it does not generate the MASTER SYNC signal or the SLAVE SYNC signal but synchronizes its index to the SLAVE SYNC signal (J2, pin 20) supplied by an external source. Master: If the drive is set to Master (RPL = 10b), it generates the SLAVE SYNC output signal (J2, pin 20) for use directly by the slave drives. Master Control: If the drive is set to Master Control (RPL = 11b), it generates the MASTER SYNC signal (J2, pin 16). This output is used by the controller to generate the SLAVE SYNC signal (J2, pin 20) for the slaves.

Recommended orientation is vertical on either side, or horizontal with the Device Electronics board down; other mounting orientations may be used provided the ambient air temperature around the drive is kept at or below 50*C (122*F). The term "ambient" becomes imprecise when referencing a drive in a system, since it is difficult to determine where the air temperature should be measured. To help resolve this confusion, Micropolis specifies that the maximum HDA casting temperature (regardless of the air temperature around the drive) is 60*C (140*F). Not exceeding this temperature will ensure that the head-to-media interface never exceed its temperature limit. Mounting Screws --------------- 2 per side 6-32 UNC-2B 4 on bottom 6-32 UNC-2B Caution: The mounting screws must be selected so that they do not penetrate the bottom mounting holes by more than 0.20 inches or the side mounting holes by more than 0.156 inches. Screws that are too long will short to PCBA components and/or prevent operation of the shock mount system. SINGLE-ENDED Interface Electrical Characteristics ------------------------------------------------- Interface control and status signals are digital (open collector TTL) using industry-standard transmitters and receivers which provide a terminated, single-ended system. The assigned signals are terminated with 220 ohms to +5V (nominal) and 330 ohms to ground at each end of the cable. All signals use open-collector or three-state drivers. Single-ended drivers and receivers allow a maximum cable length of six meters (primarily for connection within a cabinet). Signal transmission requires a single 50-conductor cable. A characteristic impedance of 100 ( 10%) ohms is recommended for un- shielded flat or twisted pair ribbon cable. a. Input Characteristics Each of the drive's signal receivers has the following characteristics when measured at the interface connector. 1) Signal true = 0.0 VDC to 0.8 VDC 2) Maximum total input load = -0.4 milliamps at 0.5 VDC 3) Signal false = 2.0 VDC to 5.25 VDC 4) Minimum input hysteresis = 0.2 VDC b. Output Characteristics Each driven signal has the following characteristics when measured at the interface connector. 1) Signal assertion = 0.0 VDC to 0.5 VDC 2) Minimum driver output capability = 48 milliamps (sinking) at 0.5 VDC. 3) Signal negation = 2.5 VDC to 5.25 VDC c. Terminator Power (TERMPWR at Pin 26) Terminator Power has the following requirements: V(TERM) = 4.25 VDC to 5.25 VDC 800 milliamps minimum source drive capability, with 1.0 amp recommended current limiting (e.g., a fuse). 1.0-milliamp maximum bus loading (except for the purposes of providing power to an internal terminator). The 1908 disk drive provides keyed connectors to prevent accidental grounding or misconnection or terminator power. Interface Terminator pack RN6 provides proper termination for the single-ended interface lines. For a multiple-drive system, the terminator pack is installed in the last drive on the cable. DIFFERENTIAL Interface Electrical Characteristics ------------------------------------------------- Differential interface signals consist of two signal lines which are denoted +SIGNAL and -SIGNAL. A signal is defined as true when the +SIGNAL is more positive than the -SIGNAL. A signal is defined as false when the -SIGNAL is more positive than the +SIGNAL. Differential drivers and receivers allow a maximum cable length of 25 meters. Signal transmission requires a single 50-conductor cable. A characteristic impedance of 100 ( 10%) ohms is recommended for un- shielded flat or twisted pair ribbon cable. A minimum conductor size of 28 AWG should be employed to minimize noise effects and ensure proper distribution of optional terminator power. A stub length of no more than 0.2 meters is allowed off the main-line interconnection within any connected equipment. a. Input Characteristics Each of the drive's signal receivers has the following characteristics when measured at the interface connector. I (input current on either input) = 2.0 milliamps, maximum Note: These characteristics include both receivers and passive drivers. This requirement is met with the input voltage varying between -7V and +12V, with power either on or off, and with hysteresis equaling 35 millivolts, minimum. b. Output Characteristics Each driven signal has the following characteristics when measured at the interface connector. VOL (low-level output voltage) = 1.7V maximum at IOL where IOL = 55 milliamps VOH (high-level output voltage) = 2.7V maximum at IOH where IOH = -55 milliamps VOD (differential voltage) = 1.0V minimum, with common-mode voltage ranges from -7 to +12 VOL and VOH are measured between the output terminal and the SCSI device's logic ground reference. c. Terminator Power (TERMPWR at Pins 25 and 26) Terminator Power has the following requirements: V(TERM) = 4.0 VDC to 5.25 VDC 600 milliamps minimum source drive capability, with 1.0 amp recommended current limiting (e.g., a fuse). 1.0-milliamp maximum bus loading (except for the purposes of providing power to an internal terminator). The 1908D drive provides keyed connectors to prevent accidental grounding or misconnection of terminator power. Interface Terminator packs RN11 and RN12 provide proper termination for the differential interface lines. Signal Connector J1 ------------------- J1 is a 50-pin connector. Signal interface connection is made via this connector. The signals on J1 include the 8-bit SCSI bus and various control and handshaking lines. Recommended Cable: 3M Scotchflex 3365/50 or equivalent. Mating connector: 3M P/N 3425-3000 or equivalent. J2 Multi-Function Connector/Jumper Block ---------------------------------------- J2 is a 24-pin, multi-function connector/jumper block. J3 DC Power Connector ---------------------- J3 is a 4-pin, keyed, AMP MATE-N-LOCK connector. Both +5V and +12V are supplied to the drive via this connector. Mating Connector: AMP 1-480424-0 or equivalent Pins: AMP 350078-4 Suggested Wire Size: 18 AWG Ground Connectors J4 and J5 --------------------------- 3/16-inch spade lugs J4 and J5 are provided for grounding. Systems characteristics determine proper ground connection. Mating connector: AMP 60972-2 or equivalent.

Adjustments and Maintenance --------------------------- 1908 drives requires no adjustments or periodic maintenance; additionally, no mechanical adjustments are required to prepare a system for handling or shipment. Field-Replacable Components --------------------------- The concept of repair by replacement of complete functional components is utilized in the 1908, resulting in an MTTR of less than 15 minutes. ********************************************************************** F E A T U R E S ********************************************************************** MICROPL. 1908S/D PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 105707 REV. A Micropolis 1908S (single-ended) and 1908D (differential) high- performance, 5 -inch full-height Rigid Disk Drives provide OEMs with random-access, high-speed data storage and meet the needs of diverse applications environment. These drivers are compatible with the "ANSI CCS" and "SCSI-2" versions of the industry-standard Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) specification. Media Defects ------------- Media defects are physical characteristics of the media which result in repetitive read errors when a functional drive is operated within specified operating conditions. At the time of manufacture, a media test system evaluates every drive and identifies each media defect location. The defective areas are identified by head address (HD), cylinder address (CYL), and number of bytes from Index (BFI). A printed listing of the defects is also shipped with each drive. The list of manufacturer-found defects is stored on the drive in a reserved, write-protected area accessible by the SCSI controller. This list is known as the MDL (Manufacturers Defect List) or PList (Primary Defect List). The entries it contains can be mapped out (reassigned) automatically during the operation by appropriate use of the format control para- meter bits.

Air within the HDA is continously and recirculated and filtered through a high efficiency filter. Air is ducted to and from the filter for maximum pressure recovery and filter efficiency. Air with- in the HDA may only enter the drive through a high-efficiency breather filter. Data Transfers -------------- 1908 drives are capable of transferring data up to 10 MBytes/sec in synchronous mode and 4 MBytes/sec in asynchronous mode. In some configurations (e.g., short cable and fast host), faster asynchronous transfer rates can be achieved. Internal Transfer Rate 30 to 40 MHz. Multi-Segment Read-Ahead ------------------------ The Multi-Segment Read-Ahead function partitions the data buffer into multiple small buffers or segments. The read-ahead function causes the 1908 drive to transfer the requested block into its buffer and continue to read sequential blocks until the buffer (or segment) is filled or another command is received. On subsequented request for data, the buffer will be checked for the requested blocks. If the data already resides in the buffer, it will be transferred to the host and no media access will be necessary. This results in a significant improvement in performance.
