Interface

(6) Cylinder Low register (X’1F4’)

The contents of this register indicates low-order 8 bits of the starting cylinder address for any disk-access.

At the end of a command, the contents of this register are updated to the current cylinder number.

Under the LBA mode, this register indicates LBA bits 15 to 8.

(7) Cylinder High register (X’1F5’)

The contents of this register indicates high-order 8 bits of the disk-access start cylinder address.

At the end of a command, the contents of this register are updated to the current cylinder number. The high-order 8 bits of the cylinder address are set to the Cylinder High register.

Under the LBA mode, this register indicates LBA bits 23 to 16.

(8) Device/Head register (X’1F6’)

The contents of this register indicate the device and the head number.

When executing INITIALIZE DEVICE PARAMETERS command, the contents of this register defines “the number of heads minus 1” (a maximum head No.).
