The LX5122 Plug and Play UltraMAX
minator represents next-generation technol-
ogy for SCSI termination applications. The
low-voltage BiCMOS architecture employed
in its design offers superior performance to
older passive and active techniques.
speed adaptive elements for each channel,
providing the fastest response possible. The
channel bandwidth is typically 35MHz. The
LX5122 compares favorably to older linear
regulator approaches whose bandwidth's
are dominated by the output compensation
capacitor and are limited to the 500KHz
bandwidth region (see further discussion in
the Functional Description section).
Linfinity's architecture also eliminates the
output compensation capacitor typical in
earlier terminator designs. Each is approved
for use with SCSI-1, -2, -3, ULTRA and
beyond — providing the highest perfor-
mance alternative available today.

liable, error free communications even in
systems which do not necessarily adhere to
recommended SCSI hardware design guide-
lines, such as the use of improper cable

termination techniques require large stabi-
lization and transient protection capacitors
of up to 20µF in value and size. The LX5122
architecture does not require these com-
ponents, allowing all the cost savings as-
sociated with inventory, board space, as-
sembly, reliability, and component costs.
