The design uses the NCR 53C80 which uses a chip count of 1 (one) plus a couple of terminating resistors, though it calls on the HD64180's on-chip-DMA. (I must admit, I own an SB180FX with the SCSI I/F but have not been able to get it running yet 8-( ) Josef Moellers paper mail: e-mail: c/o Nixdorf Computer AG USA: uunet!linus!nixbur!nixpbe!mollers.pad Abt.
