DESCRIPTION

The SCSI-2 standard recommends the use of active terminations at both ends of every cable segment in a SCSI system with single-ended drivers and receivers. The DS2107A SCSI Terminator, which is fully compliant with the standard, enables the designer to gain the benefits of active termination: greater immunity to voltage drops on the TERMPWR (TERMination PoWeR) line, enhanced high-level noise immunity, intrinsic TERMPWR decoupling, and very low quiescent current consumption. The DS2107A integrates a regulator and nine precise switched 110 ohm termination resistors into a monolithic IC.
