2 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SAA7385 is a high integration ASIC that incorporates
all of the digital electronics necessary to connect a CD
decoder to a SCSI host. An 80C32 microcontroller and a
53CF94 SCSI controller are embedded in the ASIC.
The following functions are supported:
• Input clock doubler
• Block decoder
• CRC checking of Mode 1 and Mode 2, Form 1 sectors
• Red book audio pass through to SCSI
• Buffer manager
• Third-level error correction
• Sub-code and Q-channel support
• Dedicated S2B interface UART
• Embedded 80C32 microcontroller
• Embedded 53CF94 SCSI controller.
