In the STL2 server board implementation, channel A provides a 68-pin, 16-bit LVD Ultra160
SCSI interface. Channel B provides a 68-pin, 16-bit Single Ended Ultra Wide SCSI interface.
Each controller has its own set of PCI configuration registers and SCSI I/O registers. As a PCI
2.1/2.2 bus master, the AIC-7899 supports burst data transfers on PCI up to the maximum rate
of 133 MBps using on-chip buffers.

Refer to the AIC-7899 PCI-Dual Channel SCSI Multi-Function Controller Data Manual for more
information on the internal operation of this device and for descriptions of SCSI I/O registers.

2.4.1.1.1 AIC-7899 Supported PCI Commands

Notes:

1. Ignored after checking address parity.

2. Support for 8-bit transfers only for all registers in its device register space.

3. Support for 32-bit transfers only for the external ROM/ EEPROM.

4. Support for transfers from system memory.

5. Defaults to Memory Read.

6. Will respond to DAC if PCI Address matches the MBAR[63:12].
