Table 8: Signal Descriptions

Signal Name

Pin(s)

Type Description

A2-A0

36, 33,
35

I

Address Inputs.

These signals are

asserted by the host to access the task
registers in the device.

-CS0,-CS1

37, 38

I

In the true IDE mode, -CS0 is the chip
select for the task file registers while -CS1
is used to select the Alternate Status
register and the Device Control register.

-CSEL

28

I

Cable Select.

This internally pulled-up

signal is used to configure this device as a
master or a slave when the jumper
configuration is in CSEL mode.
When this pin is:

• Grounded by the host, this device is

configured as a master.

• Open, this device is configured as a

slave.

D15-D0

18, 16,
14, 12,
10, 8, 6,
4, 3, 5, 7,
9, 11, 13,
15, 17

I/O

Data Inputs/Outputs.

This is the 8-bit or

16-bit bidirectional interface between the
host and device. The lower eight bits are
used for 8-bit register transfers.

-DMACK

29

I

DMA Acknowledge.

This signal is used by

the host in response to DMARQ to initiate
DMA transfers. The DMARQ/-DMACK
handshake is used to provide flow control
during the transfer. When -DMACK is
asserted, -CS0 and -CS1 are not asserted
and transfers are 16-bits wide.

DASP

39

I/O

Disk Active/Slave Present.

This open

drain output signal is asserted low any time
the drive is active. In a master/slave
configuration, this signal is used by the
slave to inform the master that a slave is
present.
