storage peripheral found in the ANSI ATA Standard and the definition of a PC Card found in the PCCard Standard.

The PC Card ATA protocol described in this document is compatible with existing PC Card definedsocket hardware without any changes or additional pins. PC Card ATA mass storage cards shall beimplemented to operate as I/O devices in conformance with PCMCIA 2.0/JEIDA 4.1 or later. Thecards are also permitted to provide a memory mapped configuration compatible with sockethardware defined in PCMCIA 1.0/JEIDA 4.0.

This document describes the electrical and software interfaces for a PC Card ATA mass storage card.The standard address mappings for a PC Card ATA mass storage card are also described.

1.2 Scope

This document is intended to be used together with the PC Card Standard and the ANSI ATA

Standard. It is intended to highlight those areas of implementation in which the PC Card Standardand the ANSI ATA Standard conflict. In addition, an indication is made of areas within the ANSI ATAStandard which are modified for operation in a PC Card environment. Both mandatory and optionalspecifications are presented.

In the event of a conflict between one of the base documents (PC Card Standard or ANSI ATAStandard) and this document, the interpretation of this document shall prevail if and only if thisdocument specifies that a conflict exists between the documents.

This document also highlights differences between CompactFlash and PC Card ATA.

1.4 Conventions

This section is intended to give general descriptions of notational conventions used in this document.See the Overview and Glossary volume for an extensive set of definitions of terms found in the PCCard ATA Specification. In many cases, more detailed information about these terms may be found inthe PC Card Standard or one of the ANSI ATA Standards. These documents should be consulted formore detailed and precise definitions of terms.

1.4.1 Signal Naming

All signals are named with respect to their asserted state as follows:

a)Each signal which is not a logic signal, such as Vcc, has a name which does not end with a \"#\"

character.b)Each logic signal whose name does not end with a \"#\" character has logic high as the asserted

state and logic low as the negated state.c)

Each logic signal whose name ends with a \"#\" character has logic low as the asserted state andlogic high as the negated state.

1.4.2 Numeric Representation

Numbers are expressed as follows:

a)Individual bits are expressed as \"0\" for zero, \"1\" for one, or \"X\" for don't care.

b)Groups of bits (fields) are expressed in hexadecimal number which begin with a decimal digit

and are followed by an \"H\". Each digit represents 4 bits and ranges from 0H to 9H and AH to FHfor 0 to 15 (decimal) with an \"X\" being used for don't care. The number of bits in the fielddetermines how many bits in the hexadecimal number are significant.

1.4.3 Bit Action Representation

Bits of a register are said to be set when they are made equal to \"1\" and to be cleared when they aremade equal to \"0.”

PC CARD ATA SPECIFICATION

2. OVERVIEW

This document details the requirements and considerations in implementing an ATA protocol massstorage peripheral within the PC Card environment.

The ATA protocol is followed except where the PC Card interface imposes conflicting constraints totraditional ATA host bus adapters. This document describes how the ATA protocol maps onto the PCCard interface. It resolves and clarifies the enhancements and restrictions which result from the use ofthe PC Card interface with the ATA protocol.

Mandatory support is provided for the AT BIOS ATA Control Block and Command Block registers at1F0H-1F7H, 3F6H-3F7H or 170H-177H, 376H-377H typically using IRQ14. These I/O registerassignments are usable with pre-existing AT BIOS Device Drivers. Mandatory support is also

provided for locating the I/O ports in a contiguous I/O window of at least 16 bytes which is decodedfor the PC Card by the socket. PC Cards can also be built that may be placed by the system in a 2 KBhost memory space by a dedicated driver.

The use of a well known, dominant, standard interface in mobile computers guarantees systemvendors an interface which remains stable over the coming generations of silicon and rotating massstorage devices.

2.1 Feature Summary

a)The PC Card ATA protocol is based on the widely accepted and established ATA protocol which

is an accepted standard for disk drives in mobile computers. It is also based on the PC Cardinterface standard which is the peripheral interface for mobile computing.b)The ATA protocol is very familiar to both system designers and software developers.c) This protocol allows PC Card ATA mass storage cards to be \"plug and play\" in many existing

systems and applications.d) The protocol is compatible with existing ATA software.

e) The protocol fits easily into the architecture of desktop PCs as well as mobile computers.f) Allows a CompactFlash adapter to operate a CompactFlash card in a PC Card slot.

2.2 Differences Between PC Card ATA and ATA

a)The Diagnostic command runs only on the card which is addressed by the Drive/Head register

when the Diagnostic Command is issued. This is because the PC Card interface does not providefor direct inter-drive communication (i.e., the ATA PDIAG- and DASP- signals). Therefore,unlike ATA, it is not possible when using the PC Card interface for Drive 0 to report status forboth drives.b)The PC Card ATA Specification provides for two cards at a single address through the Twin Card

option in CIS (See the Metaformat Specification) and card enumeration using the Socket andCopy register (See the Electrical Specification). The ANSI ATA Standard provides cardenumeration using a jumper or cable strap. The ATA signals PDIAG- and DASP- are notimplemented in the PC Card ATA Specification.c)

The PC Card ATA Specification provides a READY signal which can be used to prevent the hostfrom accessing the card's registers before the card is available following card detected power-on,

OVERVIEW

hardware reset, or PC Card soft reset. With an appropriate socket, this signal is also used while acard is configured in the memory mapped mode to provide a socket generated host interrupt onthe transition to ready.

d)The PC Card ATA Specification provides an ATA Soft Reset protocol described in Section 6.1,ATA Soft Reset.e)The implementation of the Index bit, IDX, in the Status register and the Alternate Status register is

optional. If implemented, it shall be implemented as defined in the ANSI ATA Standard.f)

I/O ports 3F7H and 377H in the Primary and Secondary I/O mapped modes have a potentialconflict with a floppy disk controller installed in the host. There is a potential problem with theprotocol described in the ANSI ATA Standard for sharing the Drive Address register with afloppy disk controller when either the ATA peripheral or the floppy disk controller are accessedthrough the PC Card interface.

Refer to Appendix B for possible methods to avoid this problem.

g)The PC Card interface permits the host to access the ATA registers in more alternative ways than

the traditional ATA host bus adapter allows. These alternatives arise from the presence of twocard enable signals, CE[2::1]#, in addition to address line A0.

The PC Card interface allows access to registers at odd addresses with two different methods.a) When address line A0 is 1 (logic high), if CE1# is asserted and CE2# is negated during the reador write cycle, then the byte of data at the odd address is transferred on signals D[7::0] of the DataBus.

b) Regardless of the state of address line A0 and of the state of CE1#, if CE2# is asserted the byteof data at the odd address is transferred on signals D[15::8] of the Data Bus. If CE1# is also

asserted, then a 16-bit word is accessed. If CE1# is negated, then only the byte at the odd addressis accessed.

A sixteen bit word of data is accessed when both CE[2::1]# are active, regardless of the state ofA0.

h)I/O accesses are constrained at the PC Card interface as follows:

a) The host shall perform all word (16-bit) I/O accesses with A0 = 0.

b) During a host's word access attempt, if a card asserts IOIS16# in response to the address onthe bus then the host system is permitted to transfer 16 bits of data to the card in a single cycle,otherwise, the host system shall perform two 8-bit cycles: even byte then odd byte.i)

The ANSI ATA Standard specifies that the Data register is two bytes wide and is located at offset,or relative address zero while the Error and Feature registers are one byte wide and are located atoffset one within the ATA registers. This results in an overlap of the address spaces between theData register and Error-Feature register combination.

Some host architectures do not permit word and byte registers to overlap. To permit those hoststo access all the registers of the PC Card ATA mass storage card, the PC Card ATA Specificationprovides a non-overlapping duplicate copy of each of these registers in the Memory Mapped andContiguous I/O mapped configurations. Within the 16 byte space occupied by the ATA registersin these configurations, the duplicate data register is located at offset 8H while the duplicate Errorand Feature registers are located at offset 0DH.

Refer to Section 4.2.13, Duplicate Data, Error and Feature Registers, for more information aboutthe duplicate copies of these registers.

PC CARD ATA SPECIFICATION

j) Implementation of the Identify Drive Command is mandatory in the PC Card Standard, but

optional in some versions of the ANSI ATA Standard.k) Eight and 16-bit data accesses are mandatory in PC Card -- only 16-bit accesses are specified in

some ANSI ATA Standards.l)

IOCS16# (IOIS16#) is obsolete in some ANSI ATA Standards.m)The Drive Address register is obsolete in some ANSI ATA Standards.

3. ELECTRICAL INTERFACE

A PC Card ATA mass storage card uses the PC Card electrical interface. A subset of the entire PCCard interface is sufficient for PC Card ATA implementation. Both mandatory and optional signalsare given in this section. Special consideration is given to some signals whose definition is expandedwhen used in the PC Card ATA mass storage card.

3.1 Pin Assignment Table

The following is the recommended pin assignment table for implementing PC Card ATA protocol.The mandatory Interface signals are required for using the card in the mandatory card decoded andhost decoded I/O spaces.

NOTES:

Signal names in the PC Card ATA columns indicate dual function signals by listing the Memory

Interfaced function, followed by a colon (:), and then the I/O Interfaced function of the signal. Signals inthe PC Card ATA Optional column may be mandatory for particular features which the card vendormay choose to implement. The use of optional signals is described in the following numbered notes.1.Address line A10 is mandatory if Memory Mapped addressing is supported. Otherwise, A10 is

permitted to be implemented at the discretion of the card vendor.2.Address lines A[25::11] are permitted to be implemented at the discretion of the card vendor.3.The use of the Vpp[2::1] supplies is optional. If they are used, it is recommended that the card

vendor select +12 V as the Vpp value. A card which does not require any Vpp supply, shallleave both Vpp pins unconnected at the card.

The Vpp[2::1] supplies shall not be connected to each other on the card.When only one supply is required, it is recommended that Vpp1 be used.

At power up, the host shall provide at least minimal current at Vcc Volts on both Vpp[2::1].4.The I/O signal SPKR# is optional. If the function is not implemented, this pin shall be held at

logic high (negated) by the card. The memory signal BVD2 shall be held high unless it isindicating the state of a battery on the card.5.The I/O signal STSCHG# is optional, however it shall be implemented if both the Function

Configuration and Status register and the Pin Replacement register are implemented. If the

function is not implemented, this pin shall be held high (negated) by the card. The memory signalBVD1 shall be held high unless it is indicating the state of a battery on the card.6.The negated state of the READY signal shall be interpreted to be the Busy state of the signal.

See 3.3 READY Signal and RREADY Bit, for additional information on the READY signal.7.All signals shown in the PC Card ATA mandatory column shall be implemented by all PC Card

ATA mass storage cards.

ELECTRICAL INTERFACE

3.2 Reset Conditions

There are four distinct reset conditions associated with the PC Card ATA mass storage card. They areas follows:

a)Card detected Power-On Reset;

b)Host generated PC Card Hardware Reset using the Reset signal;c)

Host initiated PC Card Soft Reset using SRESET bit in the Configuration Option register;d)ATA Soft Reset using the SRST bit in the ATA Device Control register.

The host should always accompany a card Power-On event with a host generated hardware reset asdescribed in the Power-Up and Power-Down section of the Electrical Specification.

Power-On, PC Card Hardware Reset and PC Card Soft Reset all clear the Configuration Optionregister (configuration index value of 0H) as described in the RESET signal description in theElectrical Specification and cause the card to perform the ATA Hard Reset protocol.

The PC Card Soft Reset has the same effect as the Host generated hardware reset with the exceptionthat the PC Card Software Reset bit itself is not cleared by the assertion of Soft Reset as described inthe Configuration Option register section of the Electrical Specification.

The ATA Soft Reset protocol does not affect the card's PC Card configuration, but does perform ATASoft Reset protocol as specified in the ANSI ATA Standard and modified in Section 6.1 ATA SoftReset, of this document.3.3 READY Signal and RREADY Bit

The READY signal is available while the card is configured to use the Memory Interface. This signalis unavailable and is replaced by the interrupt request signal, IREQ#, while the card is configured touse the I/O interface. The READY signal is negated when the card is in the Busy condition.

If the Pin Replacement register is implemented on the card, the RREADY bit in that register is clearedwhen the card is busy and set when the card is ready.The card shall be Busy under the following conditions:a)From Power-On until the card is ready to be accessed.

b)From PC Card Hardware Reset until the card is ready to be accessed.c)

From PC Card Soft Reset until the card is ready to be accessed.

d)If a card supports the PC Card Power-Down bit in the Configuration and Status register, then

from a change in the PC Card Power-Down bit until the card has completed the requestedPower-Down or Power-Up operation.e)While the card is in a Memory interface configuration, whenever the BSY bit in the ATA Status

PC CARD ATA SPECIFICATION

3.4 Interrupt Request: IREQ#

The interrupt request signal from the card (IREQ#) is available only when the card is configured touse the PC Card I/O interface. The handling of this signal is slightly different from the handling ofthe ATA interrupt request signal, IRQ.

The polarity of the PC Card IREQ# signal is opposite to that of the ATA IRQ signal. The PC CardIREQ# signal has a mandatory PC Card level mode interrupt and an optional PC Card pulse modeinterrupt. The pulse mode interrupt is designed to allow sharing of interrupts in hosts which use anISA compatible system bus between the PC Card socket and the host's CPU. To take advantage of aPC Card pulse mode interrupt, the host socket must be able to pass the interrupt request signalwithout inversion from the PC Card to the internal ISA bus and to drive the ISA bus IRQn signalwith an open collector driver.

When the nIEN bit in the ATA Device Control register is set, the PC Card ATA mass storage cardshall not assert the IREQ# signal. This is in contrast to the ANSI ATA Standard which specifies thatthe ATA interrupt request signal, IRQ, is placed in high impedance during these times.

4. ATA SPECIFIC REGISTER DEFINITIONS

4.1 PC Card ATA Drive Register and Protocol Definitions

PC Card ATA mass storage cards can be configured as a high performance I/O device throughstandard I/O address spaces: 1F0H-1F7H, 3F6H-3F7H (primary); 170H-177H, 376H-377H (secondary)and IRQ 14 or anywhere in the I/O space or memory space requiring a dedicated driver. The

communications to and from the drive is performed using the ATA Command Block which providesall the necessary control and status information. The PC Card interface connects peripherals to thehost using four register mapping methods. Table 4-1: Standard Configurations is a description ofthese methods:

NOTES:1.The configuration indices indicated here are for example only for PC Card ATA. (These indices

are required for CompactFlash cards).

The host selects the card's register mapping configuration by writing the Function ConfigurationIndex value to the least significant 6 bits of the card's Configuration Option register. The actual

configuration index values used by a card are vendor specific and are reported to the host using the

ATA SPECIFIC REGISTER DEFINITIONS

Configuration Table Entry tuples. However, configuration 0H shall always select the PC CardMemory-Only interface.

4.2 ATA Registers

The ATA registers are the registers which are provided on the card specifically to implement the ATAaspects of the PC Card ATA protocol. The first eight registers and duplicates are referred to as theATA Command Block.

In accordance with the PC Card Standard each of the registers below which is located at an oddaddress may be accessed using either data bus lines D[15::8] or using data bus lines D[7::0]. Refer toSection 2.2, Differences Between PC Card ATA and ATA, or to the Electrical Specification for moreinformation.

4.2.1 Data Register

The Data register is a 16-bit register which is used to transfer data blocks between the card data buffer

and the host. Data may be transferred by either a series of word accesses to the Data register or aseries of byte accesses to the Data register. The ANSI ATA Standard Signal Descriptions and Set

Features Command sections specify under what conditions word and byte accesses from the host areappropriate to access this register.Table 4-2: Data Register

Some ANSI ATA Standards define this as a 16-bit-only register. PC Card ATA requires this register tobe accessible as 8 or 16 bits.

4.2.2 Error Register

This register contains additional information about the source of an error which has occurred in

processing of the preceding command. This register should be checked by the host when bit 0 (ERR)in the Status register is set. The Error register is a read only register. When writing to the address ofthe Error register, the Feature register is written.Table 4-3: Error Register

4.2.13 Duplicate Data, Error and Feature Registers

The address space occupied by the Data register overlaps with space occupied by the Error andFeature registers. The table below describes the combinations of Data register access and Error orFeature register accesses. The table is provided here to assist in understanding the overlapped Dataregister and Error or Feature register rather than to attempt to define general PC Card word and byteaccess modes and operations. See the PC Card Standard for definitions of the Card Accessing Modesfor I/O and Memory cycles. These cycles are also summarized in Section 2.2 Differences Between PCCard ATA and ATA.Table 4-13: Duplicate Data Register

Because of the overlapped registers, access to the Error or Feature registers at 1F1H, 171H and offset1H are not possible when word accesses are performed, i.e., with CE1# and CE2# both asserted. TheDuplicate Registers at relative addresses 8H, 9H and 0DH have no restrictions on the operations whichcan be performed by the socket.

NOTES:1.The Data register at 0H is accessed with both CE1# and CE2# asserted as a word register on

the combined Odd Data Bus and Even Data Bus (D[15::0]). This register may also be accessedby a pair of byte accesses to the offset 0H with CE1# asserted and CE2# negated. Wordaccesses at odd address N+1 is the same as a word access at address N, however, word

accesses at odd addresses are illegal for I/O accesses. Note that the address space of this wordregister overlaps the address space of the Error and Feature byte-wide registers which are

located at offset 1H. When accessed twice as byte register with CE1# asserted, the first byte tobe accessed is the Even byte of the Word and the second byte accessed is the Odd byte of theequivalent Word access.

A byte access to address 0H with CE1# negated and CE2# asserted accesses the Error (read)or Feature (write) register.2.The registers located at offsets 8H, 9H and 0DH are non-overlapping duplicates of the registers

at offsets 0 and 1.

Register 8H is equivalent to register 0H, while register 9H accesses only the Odd byte of theData register. Therefore, if the registers are byte accessed in the order 9H then 8H the data willbe transferred Odd byte then Even byte. Repeated byte accesses to register 8H or 0H willaccess consecutive (even then odd) bytes from the data buffer. Repeated word accesses toregister 8H, 9H or 0H will access consecutive words from the data buffer. Repeated byteaccesses to register 9H are not supported. However, repeated alternating byte accesses toregisters 8H then 9H will access consecutive (even then odd) bytes from the data buffer. Byteaccesses to register 9H access only the odd byte of the data word.3.Memory accesses to even addresses at offsets between 400H and 7FFH access register 8H.

Accesses to odd addresses at offsets between 400H and 7FFH access register 9H. This 1 Kbytememory window to the Data register is provided so that hosts can perform memory to memoryblock moves to the Data register when the register lies in memory space. This entire windowaccesses the Data register FIFO and does not directly address the data buffer within the card.Some hosts, such as the 80x86 processors, increment both the source and destinationaddresses when executing the memory to memory block move instruction. Some PC Card

socket adapters also have auto incrementing address logic embedded within them. This addresswindow allows these hosts and adapters to function efficiently.

PC CARD ATA SPECIFICATION

7. PC CARD SPECIFIC CONSIDERATIONS

7.1 Card Configuration Registers

The PC Card Configuration registers are described in the Electrical Specification, Card Configurationsection. When only some of the bits in a register are required by a card, the unsupported bits may beignored by the card when written and should return stable data (typically 0) when read.

The Configuration Option register is the only register which is mandatory for all PC Card ATA massstorage cards. This register is used to specify the addressing mode of the card, the interrupt mode(Level or Pulsed) and to assert PC Card Soft Reset.

The Function Configuration and Status register is required to be implemented on the card only if thecard supports the PC Card power-down, audio, or Status Changed features, none of which are

mandatory. If PC Card power-down is supported, it is recommended that this place the drive in thelowest power state available from which the drive can recover by restoring the PC Card Power DownBit to 0. The Status Changed feature also requires that the Pin Replacement register be implemented.If the Function Configuration and Status register is implemented on the card, the Interrupt Requestbit in the register shall be controlled as follows: The bit shall be set when the drive has an interruptrequest pending and the Interrupt Enable bit in the ATA Device Control register is set to permitinterrupts. While a drive is configured for the Memory-Only interface, the behavior of the InterruptRequest bit in the Function Configuration and Status register is the same as if an I/O interface wereconfigured, although the Hardware Interrupt Request signal will not be available from the card.The IOis8-bit in the Card Configuration and Status register is set by the host to inform the card thatthe host will perform all I/O to the card as 8-bit I/O transferred on the Even Data Bus. This bit shouldnot be interpreted as controlling the width of data accesses to the card.

The Pin Replacement register is required to be implemented on the card only if the card is designed toreturn READY, Write Protect Switch or Battery Status while the card is using the I/O interface.The Socket and Copy register, bit 4, is required to be implemented on the card if the card is designedto be host selectable as either drive 0 or as drive 1. A card indicates this capability with the TwinCards field in the Configuration Table Entry Tuple of the Card Information Structure. The drivenumber selection is performed by clearing bit 4 of the Socket and Copy register to 0 for drive 0 orsetting the bit to 1 for drive 1. The Twin Card operation is intended for emulating ATA Master/Slaveoperation in the AT Primary and AT Secondary I/O mapped addressing configurations.

7.2 Card Removal, Insertion and Change Detection

The ATA Card insertion and removal shall be detected by having the socket monitor the Card Detectpins of the card and notify the client driver when there is a change in their status. The Identify Drivecommand can be used (Model and Serial Number) to determine whether a drive which is insertedinto a socket is already mounted by the system. Be aware, however, that the data on the PC Card mayhave been altered on another system between the time it is removed from and then returned to thefirst system.

PC CARD ATA SPECIFICATION

8. APPENDIX A: IMPLEMENTATION NOTES

8.1 Special Handling of I/O Ports 3F7H and 377H

The standard, AT-BIOS compatible, address for the Drive Address register at its primary location isshared with bit 7, the Disk Change bit, of the Floppy Disk Controller at its standard primary location.A non-PC Card ATA host adapter prevents a bus conflict between the Floppy Disk Controller and theATA peripheral by keeping data bit 7 in high-impedance at the system bus while the register is read.When an ATA host bus adapter is used, the Floppy Disk Controller and the ATA Drive are connectedto the same physical wires on the data bus, so that when the Drive Address register is accessed, theFloppy Disk Controller places D[6::0] in the high impedance state while the ATA drive places D7 inthe high impedance state. This action prevents a bus conflict.

A PC Card socket in a host is likely to include a bus transceiver between the card's data pins and thehost's system data bus. Unless the socket has been custom designed to resolve this problem, the bustransceiver is unable to generate a high-impedance output on the system data bus signal D7 inresponse to a high impedance input from the D7 data line on the PC Card socket. Therefore, thetraditional ATA solution to the 3F7H register is not directly usable in the PC Card interface.

Therefore, a PC Card ATA mass storage card configured to operate at the Primary (or Secondary) I/Oaddresses, conflicts with a Floppy Disk Controller which resides in the system and also uses port3F7H (or 377H). A conflict also occurs if the bus width supported by the PC Card ATA mass storagecard and the Floppy Disk Controller are not equal.

The following are methods to avoid this condition in PC Card implementations. The selection of thebest mechanism for a particular system will depend upon the characteristics of the host's socket, thehost's driver software and the PC Card ATA mass storage card installed in the socket.1.

Locate the PC Card ATA mass storage card at a non-conflicting address. In hosts where a FloppyDisk Controller is potentially present at 3F7H in the PC Card ATA mass storage card’s PrimaryI/O address range, the PC Card ATA mass storage card would not be configured to use itsPrimary I/O address range. Either a contiguous I/O space decoded by the socket in a

non-conflicting area of the I/O space or the PC Card ATA mass storage card’s Secondary addressrange, 170H to 177H and 376H to 377H, would be configured by the host.

This method will work with any socket and PC Card ATA mass storage card but requires that thesoftware which accesses the card be aware of the location of the I/O ports for the card.2.

Hosts in which it is impossible for a Floppy Disk Controller and a PC Card ATA mass storagecard to reside in the system at the same time are not subject to this problem.

This method will work only in systems where it is not possible to install both devices at the sametime. For example, a system with a single PC Card socket, no embedded Floppy Disk Controllerand no I/O expansion bus.3.

Avoid enabling the PC Card ATA mass storage card’s Drive Address register. There are twoconditions to allow this method. 1) The software used to access the PC Card ATA mass storagecard must not use this register. 2) The port on the PC Card ATA mass storage card must be

prevented by socket or card hardware from responding. This may be accomplished in two ways.a) If byte granularity of I/O port address decoding is supported by the socket, the socket wouldbe programmed to enable the PC Card ATA mass storage card only for I/O addresses 1F0

APPENDIX A: IMPLEMENTATION NOTES

through 1F7H and 3F6H for a Primary address conflict. For a Secondary address conflict, thesocket would be programmed to enable only I/O addresses 170H through 177H and 376H to thecard.

b) If the PC Card ATA mass storage card provides an additional Primary or Secondary

configuration of the card which does not respond to accesses to I/O locations 3F7H or 377H, thatconfiguration should be selected in preference to the configuration which also includes 3F7H or377H.

This method requires that either the socket or the PC Card ATA mass storage card have theability to selectively disable port 3F7H or 377H while keeping the other addresses in the Primaryor Secondary address range active. This method also requires that the host software shall notattempt to use information in the Drive Address register.4.

If socket hardware in the system is designed specifically to avoid this conflict then it shall be ableto selectively force the socket's system data bus signal D7 to be in high impedance and the PCCard's IOIS16# signal (IOCS16# on the host ISA or EISA bus) to treated as negated duringaccesses to I/O address 3F7H or 377H. This feature would be used when PC Card ATA massstorage card is installed. If a floppy disk controller PC Card is permitted to be installed in thesystem, then each socket must also have the ability to force the socket's system data bus signallines D6 through D0 to be in high impedance and the card's IOIS16# signal to treated as negatedduring accesses to I/O address 3F7H or 377H.

This method requires special socket hardware. This method does not require any specialtreatment or modifications to existing software accessing the drive at the primary addresses.

9. APPENDIX B: CARD INFORMATION

STRUCTURE

9.1 Card Information Structure

A Card Information Structure shall be present on the card. The minimum required tuples for the cardare not necessarily in order of appearance:

a)Required: Device ID Tuple, CISTPL_DEVICE, tuple code 01H. This tuple must be the first tuple

on the card. If the card supports the memory mapped PC Card ATA mode, a Device ID tupleshall be present which identifies the region of memory space occupied by the ATA registers ashaving a device type DH; Function Specific region. In PCMCIA 1.0 & 2.0/JEIDA 4.0 & 4.1nomenclature, this device type was named \"I/O\".b)Required: Configuration Tuple, CISTPL_CONFIG, tuple code 1AH. This tuple identifies the

location and presence of the Card Configuration registers in the attribute memory space of thecard. In the PCMCIA 2.0/JEIDA 4.1 nomenclature, this tuple was labeled \"CISTPL_CONF\".c)

Required: Configuration Entry Tuples, CISTPL_CFTABLE_ENTRY, tuple code 1BH. One of thesetuples shall be present for each Configuration Index value which is supported by the card. In thePCMCIA 2.0/JEIDA 4.1 nomenclature, this tuple was labeled \"CISTPL_CE\".

d)Required: Function ID Tuple, CISTPL_FUNCID, tuple code 21H, with a function ID value of 04H

for disk function. This tuple allows Card Services clients to quickly determine the class of cardwhich is present in the socket. See 9.2 Function ID Tuple for Disk Function.e)Required: Function Extension Tuple, CISTPL_FUNCE, tuple code 22, Type 1, Disk Interface with

an interface ID value of 01, PC Card ATA interface. This tuple identifies the card as being PCCard ATA. See 9.3 Disk Device Interface Function Extension Tuple.f)

Recommended/Required: Function Extension Tuple, CISTPL_FUNCE, tuple code 22, Types 2and 3, PC Card ATA Features. These tuples identify optional features of the PC Card ATA

protocol which are implemented on the card. These tuples are optional unless the card supportsthe Dual drive mode in which case both Type 2 and Type 3 versions are required. See 9.4 PC CardATA Features Function Extension Tuple.g)Recommended: JEDEC ID Tuple, CISTPL_JEDEC C, tuple code 18H. It is recommended that cards

which support the memory mapped ATA registers described in this document identify the regionof memory space containing the registers with a JEDEC ID code indicating PC Card ATA protocolsupport. Use of a standardized ID from Section 9.5 PC Card ATA JEDEC ID's is recommended,although a vendor specific JEDEC ID codes is permitted. If a vendor specific JEDEC ID is used,the interoperability of the card will be limited to those host systems which recognize vendor'sunique IDs.See Guidelines for ATA CIS considerations and samples.

9.2 Function ID Tuple for Disk Function

This tuple specifies that the card supports disk device functionality. This tuple is followed by one ormore Function Extension Tuples which further specify the disk function which is supported. The PCCard ATA CIS shall include this tuple and a Function Extension Tuple describing the disk interface©2001 PCMCIA/JEITA

protocol as PC Card ATA. Additional Function Extension tuples describing the disk function on thecard are also permitted. For details on the tuple structure please refer to the MetaformatSpecification.

9.3 Disk Device Interface Function Extension Tuple

This tuple specifies the device interface protocol used in the disk function described in the FunctionID tuple of Section 9.2: Function ID Tuple for Disk Function. This tuple shall follow the Function IDtuple for Disk Function described in Section 9.2: Function ID Tuple for Disk Function without anyother intervening Function ID tuples. For details on the tuple structure please refer to the MetaformatSpecification.

9.4 PC Card ATA Features Function Extension Tuple

This Function Extension Tuple specifies the PC Card ATA related features of the disk function

described in the Function ID tuple of Section 9.2: Function ID Tuple for Disk Function. This tuple isoptional unless the card contains a Dual drive (coupled Master and Slave drives) in which case thetuples are required. When present, the extension tuple with function extension type code 02H (Singleor Master Drive) shall follow the Function ID tuple for Disk Function described in Section 9.2:Function ID Tuple for Disk Function without any other intervening Function ID tuples. Whenpresent, the extension tuple with type code 03H (Slave Drive) shall follow the extension tuple withextension type 02H without any intervening tuples.

The PC Card ATA Slave Drive Features Extension Tuple applies only to card configurations (valuesof Configuration Index) which have a value of 0 in the Max Twin Cards field (either explicit or

implied) of the Miscellaneous Features Field of the Configuration Entry tuple. For details on the tuplestructure please refer to the Metaformat Specification.

PC CARD ATA SPECIFICATION

9.5 PC Card ATA JEDEC ID's

PCMCIA 2.01/JEIDA 4.1 and previous releases provide for the use of JEDEC Identifiers to specify theaccess algorithm for regions of memory space on a PC Card. PCMCIA/JEITA have adopted specificJEDEC ID codes to indicate regions of memory space which contain the memory mapped PC CardATA registers as described in this document. These identifiers use the JEDEC Manufacturer ID of DFH(95 decimal with odd parity), which has been assigned to PCMCIA/JEITA by JEDEC. The followingtwo byte JEDEC ID's are used for PC Card ATA regions. The JEDEC ID's for PC Card ATA identifyboth the access protocol, PC Card ATA, and the handling of the VPP supply within the PC Card ATAprotocol.

The JEDEC ID's for PC Card ATA are defined as follows:

CARD ATA DIFFERENCES

10.1 CompactFlash Differences

The following summaries the major differences between the CompactFlash and the PC Card ATA.The CompactFlash card is intended to be compatible with the PC Card Standard when used with aPC Card adapter card.

a) Configure Index values are predefined for CompactFlash cards (not defined in PC Card).b) Function Configuration Register base address fixed at 200h for CompactFlash cards (not defined

in PC Card).c) Memory access mode is required on CompactFlash cards (optional mode on PC Card).d) Both 8- and 16-bit accesses are permitted to CompactFlash Common Memory space.e) All CompactFlash I/O addresses must support both 8- and 16-bit accesses.f) CompactFlash defines a True IDE mode.

g) Maximum WAIT# signal width is 350 nSec. for CompactFlash (12 uSec. for PC Card).h) CompactFlash electrical interface is CMOS levels (PC Card is TTL).

i) Minimum pull-up resistance value is 50K ohms and maximum value is 500K ohms for

CompactFlash. PC Card is 10K minimum – no maximum defined.j) CompactFlash does not have Vpp pins.

k) CompactFlash power mode limits. PC Card does not define a maximum current.l) CompactFlash rates 3.3V Vcc at +/- 5%. PC Card is +/- 0.3V.

m) CompactFlash cards support both 3.3V and 5.0V Vcc. PC Cards may support one or both

voltages.n) CompactFlash uses a 50 contact connector – PC Card uses 68 contacts.o) CompactFlash is physically smaller than a PC Card.

11. APPENDIX D: TRUE IDE MODE

11.1 True IDE mode

CompactFlash Storage Cards can be configured in a True IDE mode of operation. Since PC Card ATAcards may also provide this, the mode definition is included here.

True IDE mode is configured when the OE# input signal is grounded in the host socket during thepower-on cycle. In this mode the PC Card protocol and configuration registers are disabled and onlyI/O operations to the Task File and Data registers are allowed. In this mode no Memory or Attributeaccesses are allowed by the host. Eight bit data accesses are only allowed when the ATA Set FeaturesCommand is issued to place the device in the 8-bit data mode.
