NCR/5380 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The NCR 5380 is an early SCSI controller chip developed by NCR Microelectronics, known for its simplicity and low cost. It was the first single-chip implementation of the SCSI-1 protocol.

 

This chip found widespread use in various computing platforms. It was integrated into the Macintosh Plus and numerous SCSI cards for personal computers such as the Amiga and Atari TT. Digital Equipment Corporation also featured the NCR 5380 in their VAX computers, including Q-Bus modules and integrated controllers in MicroVAX, VAXstation, and VAXserver systems. Additionally, many UMAX SCSI optical scanners utilized the 53C80 chip.

 

The NCR 5380 was second-sourced by several chip makers, including AMD and Zilog, indicating its significant market presence. It was designed by engineers at the NCR plant in Wichita, Kansas, and initially fabricated in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
