5.0 ATA Drive Register Set Definition and Protocol
The SDP3B FlashDisk can be configured as a high
performance I/O device through:
a.) Standard PC-AT disk I/O address spaces
1F0h-1F7h, 3F6h-3F7h (primary); 170h-
177h, 376h-377h (secondary) with IRQ 14
(or other available IRQ).
b.) Any system decoded 16 byte I/O block
using any available IRQ.
c.) Memory space.
The communication to or from the SDP3B
FlashDisk is done using the Task File registers
which provide all the necessary registers for
control and status information. The PCMCIA
interface connects peripherals to the host using
four register mapping methods. The following is a
detailed description of these methods:
