2.13 Floppy Connector (CN3)

You can attach up to two floppy drives to the PCA-6780’s on-board con- troller. You can use any combination of 5.25” (360 KB and 1.2 MB) and/ or 3.5” (720 KB, 1.44 MB, and 2.88 MB) drives.

A34-pin daisy-chain drive connector cable is required for a dual-drive system. On one end of the cable is a 34-pin flat-cable connector. On the other end are two sets of floppy disk drive connectors. Each set consists of a 34-pin flat-cable connector (usually used for 3.5” drives) and a printed-circuit board connector (usually used for 5.25” drives).

2.13.1 Connecting the floppy drive

1.Plug the 34-pin flat-cable connector into CN3. Make sure that the red wire corresponds to pin one on the connector.

2.Attach the appropriate connector on the other end of the cable to the floppy drive(s). You can use only one connector in the set. The set on the end (after the twist in the cable) connects to the A: drive. The set in the middle connects to the B: drive.

3.If you are connecting a 5.25” floppy drive, line up the slot in the printed circuit board with the blocked-off part of the cable connec- tor.

If you are connecting a 3.5” floppy drive, you may have trouble determin- ing which pin is number one. Look for a number printed on the circuit board indicating pin number one. In addition, the connector on the floppy drive may have a slot. When the slot is up, pin number one should be on the right. Check the documentation that came with the drive for more information.

If you desire, connect the B: drive to the connectors in the middle of the cable as described above.

In case you need to make your own cable, you can find the pin assign- ments for the board’s connector in Appendix B.
