DTC-3153 SCSI card

[dankcomputing]

I can't remember where I found this card, but it appears to be fairly late for an 8-bit ISA SCSI card. No boot ROM, which is fine, but there's no config jumpers either. Is the 2 PALs worth of glue logic even enough to implement Plug & Play? Maybe the controller chip itself has it. Or it's fixed to some IRQ/DMA/base address.

Difficult to find this all out because this card almost doesn't exist according to the internet. No drivers to be found and there isn't even a Total Hardware '99 entry. I'm hoping to get it working on my Tandy 1000TL/2. Has anyone ever seen this card before? Are any drivers available?

Looks like a card sold with SCSI scanners.

DOMEX 3153 drivers can be found here:

Try drivers for other 53C400 cards. See the Vogons thread on this

Note the '3151' in the reference part of the FCC ID, and on the card's back. Might this card be a DTC3151X (a "SCSI Host Adapter")? If so, there is a ZIP file named dtc328x.zip for download at [here]. I see a SETUP.EXE in that.

That worked! I had to browse to the DOS directory and run INSTALL from there, then choose a custom installation because it defaults to installing the Windows 3.1 drivers.

It looks like a whole bunch of different manufacturers have reused this card design, so it's been sold under different names depending on who's peripherals it was bundled with.

I threw the driver on a floppy image to hopefully make it easier for others to find.
