A Jumper setting ============== x = factory default configuration Drive Option Selection ---------------------- While the option jumpers may be positioned at locations different from the single-ended version of the Device Electronics board, the options supported are the same. If more than one drive is to be installed in a system, remove the interface terminator at RN9 (RN11) from each drive except the last one; and configure each drive to a different SCSI ID.

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. Inasmuch as the drive frame acts as a heat sink to dissipate heat from the unit, the enclosure and mounting structure should be designed to allow natural convection of heat around the HDA and outer frame. If the enclosure is small or natural convetion is limited, a fan may be required. 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 proper operation of the shock mount system. Signal Connector J1 ------------------- J1 is a 50-pin connector on the Device Electronics board. 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 Multi-Function Connector J2 --------------------------- J2 is a 24-pin connector on the Device Electronics board and is used for connecting the drive to a user-supplied Operator Panel. DC Power Connector J3 --------------------- J3 is a 4-pin, keyed AMP MATE-N-LOK Connector on the Motor Control Board. Both +5V and +12V is supplied to the drive via this connector. Mating Connector: AMP 1-480424-0 Pins: AMP 350078-4 Suggested Wire Size: 18 AWG Ground Connectors J4/J5 ----------------------- 3/16-inch spade lugs J4 and J5 are provided for grounding.

Connectors J4 and J5 are provided for grounding; system characteristics determine the proper ground connection. Interface Electrical Characteristics (Single-ended) --------------------------------------------------- Interface control and status signals are digital (open collector TTL) utilizing 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 signal driven by an SCSI device 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 1528-15 disk drive provides keyed connectors to prevent accidental grounding or misconnection of terminator power. Interface Electrical Characteristics (Differential) --------------------------------------------------- Differential drivers and receivers allow a maximum cable length of 25 meters. Differential interface signals consist of two signal lines 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. - Signal transmission requires a single 50-conductor cable. - A characteristic impedance of 100 ( 10%) ohms is recommended for unshielded 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 drives signal receivers has the following characteristics when measured at the interface connector. I(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) = 1.7 V max at IOL where IOL = 55 milliamps VOH (high-level output voltage) = 2.7 V max at IOH where IOH = -55 milliamps VOD (differential voltage) = 1.0 V minimum, with commonmode voltages 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 Pin 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 1528-15D disk drive provides keyed connectors to prevent accidental grounding or misconnection of terminator power. Adjustments and Maintenance --------------------------- The 1528-15 disk drive requires no adjustments or periodic maintenance. Additionally, no mechanical adjustments are required to prepare the drives for handling or shipment. Field-Replaceable Components ---------------------------- The concept of repair by replacement of complete functional components is utilized in the 1525-15, resulting in an MTTR of less than 15 minutes. ********************************************************************** F E A T U R E S ********************************************************************** MICROPL. 1528 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 105389 REV. A 1528-15 Specifications ---------------------- Micropolis 1528-15 (single-ended) and 1528-15D (differential) high- performance, 5 -inch, full-heigth Rigid Disk Drives provide OEMs with random-access, high-speed data storage and meet the needs of diverse applications environments. These drives are compatible with the "ANSI CCS" and "SCSI-2" versions of the industry-standard Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) specification. Seek Time --------- | 1528 | ----------------------------------+--------+ Track-to-Track msec. typ. | 4 | Average msec. typ. | 14.5 | Maximum msec. | 32.25 | One-Third Stroke msec. max. | 15.5 | Latency msec. avg. | 8.33 | ----------------------------------+--------+ Formatted Capacity Calculation ------------------------------ The formatted capacity of the 1528-15 disk drive depends upon a a number of userselectable variables. One critical variable is sparing, either track-oriented or cylinder-oriented. The following formula is used to calculate the formatted capacity (C) of the 1528-15 drive using cylinder-oriented sparing: C = [(SPT x HDS) - (SPARE_SPC)] x (2106 - 3 - SPARE_CYL) x (BYTES) where SPT is the number of physical sectors per track. HDS is the number of data heads. SPARE_SPC is the number of spare sectors per cylinder. This variable is user programmable. A typical value for the 1528-15 drive is 8. 2106 is the number of physical cylinders. 3 cylinders are used by the drive and are not user accessible. SPARE_CYL is the number of spare cylinders. This variable is user programmable; a typical value for sparing is 3. BYTES is the bytes per sector (e.g., 1024, 512, etc.) 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 defects are logged on a label affixed to the drive. The defective areas are identified by Head address (HD), Cylinder address (CYL), and number of Bytes from Index (BFI). A printed list 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 is contains can be mapped out (reassigned) automatically during the operation by appropriate use of the format control parameter bit. +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Micropolis specifies that all 1528-15 drives shall have no | | more than one defect per megabyte of unformatted capacity. | +------------------------------------------------------------+ Adjustments and Maintenance --------------------------- The 1528-15 disk drive requires no adjustments or periodic mainten- ance; aditionally, no mechanical adjustments are required to prepare a system for handling or shipment. Field-Repalceable Components ---------------------------- The concept of repair by replacement of complete functional components is utilized in the 1528-15, resulting in an MTTR of less than 15 minutes. Air Filtration System --------------------- The 1528-15 drives are designed to provide contamination control within the sealed Head/Disk Assembly (HDA) throughout the life of the drive with zero maintenance. Air within the HDA is continuously recirculated and filtered through a high efficiency filter. Air is ducted to and from the filter for maximum pressure recovery and filter efficiency. Air within the HDA may only enter the drive through a high-efficiency breather filter. Data Transfers -------------- 1528-15 drives are capable of transferring data at 4.8 MBytes/sec. in synchronous mode and 1.8 MBytes/sec in asynchronous mode. In some configurations (e.g., short cable and fast host), the 1528-15 can achieve faster asynchronous transfer rates. Read-Ahead ---------- The read-ahead function causes the 1528-15 drive to transfer the requested block into its buffer and continue to read sequential blocks until the buffer is filled or another command is received. On subsequent 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. Through Parity -------------- Data integrity is maintained in the 1528-15 drive by maintaining parity from the SCSI interface, through the drive's buffer, to just before the point where the data byte is converted to serial form for transmission to the media. N-Segment Data Buffer/Cache --------------------------- The 256K data buffer is dynamically divided into segments with each segment holding data from different areas of the disk. This maximizes the improvement of read-ahead technology by greatly increasing the probability of a cache hit. This feature improves the performance of all types of system; from single threaded DOS environments to complex architectures like UNIX with its own system caches.
