(attribute) memory accesses. This

 

 

 

 

signal is set:

• High for common memory.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Low for attribute memory.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

-REG

 

 

The signal must also be active (low)

address is on the bus.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

-DMACK

 

 

In true IDE mode, this signal is used

 

 

(True IDE mode)

 

 

by the host in response to DMARQ to

 

 

 

 

 

initiate DMA transfers. The DMARQ/

 

 

 

 

 

-DMACK handshake is used to

 

 

 

 

 

provide flow control during the

 

 

 

 

 

transfer. When -DMACK is asserted,

 

 

 

 

 

-CS0 and -CS1 are not asserted and

 

 

 

 

 

transfers are 16-bits wide.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

-RESET

resets the SiliconDrive CF. The

SiliconDrive CF is reset only at power-

power-up. The SiliconDrive CF is also

 

 

 

 

 

reset when the Soft Reset bit in the

 

 

 

 

 

Card Configuration Option register is

 

 

 

 

 

set.
