T-260 SCSI Host Adapter [P]

The T-260 model uses the Apple DB25 SCSI port.
Data Transfer Rate Up to 3.2 MBytes/sec sustained rate on the Micro Channel bus and up to 2.0 MBytes/sec on the SCSI bus.

J3 internal 4 pin header (R-C-C-L) for case mounted SCSI Bus / HD activity LED header and the traces lead to J4, which is an outline for a dual LED for an external SCSI Bus / HD activity.

Term SIPPs look to be 221/331 G 8 pin SIPPs. Who is the manufacturer? See the "B" with the diagonal slash in the top loop?

"B" is manufacturer, "R" means ohms, 221/331 is confusing, I assume bussed, "G" -MAY- be tolerance, "33" may be a production code?

BIOS is TR503903-00B. Oddly enough, the ISA based T-160 has been seen with TR503903-00B as well. Further, the T-160 has been seen with "T160/T260 913801-00", which further supports the probability that the T160 and T260 are pretty close, board-wise.
