AHA-2740 Series User's Manual The AHA-2740 Series supports only single-ended SCSI devices. Most of the SCSI drives on the market today are of this type. Like all EISA I/O cards, the AHA-2740 Series does not have jumpers to change various EISA configuration options. These options are changed via the EISA Configuration utility provided with every EISA system; however, the AHA-2742/2742T does have a single jumper (J4) that is used to enable or disable the on-board floppy controller. Features Fast Data Transfer Rates • Up to 33 MBytes/sec on EISA bus • 2.0 MBytes/sec asynchronous SCSI data rate • 5.0 MBytes/sec synchronous SCSI data rate • 10.0 MBytes/sec synchronous Fast SCSI data rate Maximum Off-loading the Host CPU • On-board sequencer (SCSI PhaseEngine) automates all SCSI protocol • Low SCSI processing overhead • Bus master DMA implementation • Task scheduling and message-based communication • Programmable interrupts • 32-, 16-, and 8-bit host bus data transfer 1-4 Adaptec AHA-2740 Series User's Manual Stock Number: 510381-00 / Rev.
