The DS2109 is a single-chip Plug and Play (PnP) SCSI terminator.
The DS2109 is a single‑chip Plug‑and‑Play SCSI terminator that provides active termination for 18 signal lines. It includes a low‑dropout regulator, 110 Ω termination resistors, and bus‑termination sensing circuitry to automatically isolate the device when an external device is attached.
The document details functional blocks, pin assignments, electrical characteristics, absolute maximum ratings, recommended operating conditions, and package dimensions, enabling designers to integrate the DS2109 into host bus adapters or motherboards.
| Termination Resistance | 110 Ω (typical) |
|---|---|
| VREF Output Voltage | 2.85 V (typical) |
| Power Down Current | 2 mA (typical) |
| Bus Current Sense Trip Point | 32 mA |
It uses either bus‑ground sensing or bus‑current sensing circuitry to automatically connect or disconnect the termination resistors.
The DS2109 is specified to operate from 0 °C to 70 °C.
The regulator provides a typical output of 2.85 V.
