2.4.24.1 Signal Description – Primary IDE Connector (CN14)

 

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.

 

 

PDIOR#

 

IDE I/O Read. Signal is asserted on read accesses to the corresponding IDE port

 

 

addresses.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PDIOW#

 

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 PC-AT bus.

 

 

 

 

 

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.

 

 

 

 

 

 

PDDACK#

 

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 LED.
