2.3.8.1 Signal Description – IDE Connector (CN1)
The IDE interface supports PIO modes 0 to 4 and Bus Master IDE. Data transfer rates up to 100 MB/Sec is possible.
| Signal |
| Signal Description | |
| PDA [2:0] |
| IDE Address Bits. These address bits are used to access a register or data port in |
|
|
| a device on the IDE bus. |
| |
|
|
|
| |
| PDCS1#, PDCS3# |
| IDE Chip Selects. The chip select signals are used to select the command block | |
|
| registers in an IDE device. DCS1# selects the primary hard disk. | ||
|
|
| ||
|
|
|
| |
| PDD [15:0] |
| IDE Data Lines. D [15:0] transfers data to/from the IDE devices. |
|
| PIOR# |
| IDE I/O Read. Signal is asserted on read accesses to the corresponding IDE port | |
|
| addresses. | ||
|
|
| ||
|
|
|
| |
| PIOW# |
| IDE I/O Write. Each signal is asserted on write accesses to corresponding the IDE |
|
|
| port addresses. |
| |
|
|
|
| |
| PIORDY |
| When deasserted, these signals extend the transfer cycle of any host register | |
|
| access when the device is not ready to respond to the data transfer request. | ||
|
|
| ||
|
|
|
| |
| RESET# |
| IDE Reset. This signal resets all the devices that are attached to the IDE interface. |
|
| IRQ14 | Interrupt line from hard disk. Connected directly to | ||
|
|
|
| |
| PDREQ |
| The DREQ is used to request a DMA transfer from the South Bridge. The direction |
|
|
| of the transfers is determined by the IOR#/IOW# signals. |
| |
|
|
|
| |
| PDACK# |
| DMA Acknowledge. The DACK# acknowledges the DREQ request to initiate DMA | |
|
| transfers. | ||
|
|
| ||
|
|
|
| |
| IDEACTP# |
| Signal from hard disk indicating hard disk activity. The signal level depends on the | |
|
| hard disk type, normally active low. The signal is routed directly to the LED1. | ||
