Card (Drive) Address Register
(Address 3F7[377]; Offset Fh)
This register is provided for compatibility with
the AT disk drive interface. It is recommended
that this register not be mapped into the host's
I/O space because of potential conflicts on Bit 7.
The bits are defined as follows:
D7
D6
D5
D4
D3
D2
D1
D0
X
-WTG
-HS3
-HS2
-HS1
-HS0
-nDS1
-nDS0
Bit 7
This bit is unknown.
Implementation Note:
Conflicts may occur on the host data bus when this bit is provided by a Floppy Disk Controller
operating at the same addresses as the CompactFlash Memory Card. Following are some possible
solutions to this problem for the PCMCIA implementation:
1. Locate the CompactFlash Memory Card at a non-conflicting address, i.e. Secondary address
(377) or in an independently decoded Address Space when a Floppy Disk Controller is located at
the Primary addresses.
2. Do not install a Floppy and a CompactFlash Memory Card in the system at the same time.
3. Implement a socket adapter which can be programmed to (conditionally) tri-state D7 of I/0
address 3F7/377 when a CompactFlash Memory Card is installed and conversely to tri-state D6-D0
of I/O address 3F7/377 when a floppy controller is installed.
4. Do not use the CompactFlash Memory Card's Drive Address register. This may be accomplished
by either a) If possible, program the host adapter to enable only I/O addresses 1F0-1F7, 3F6 (or
170-177, 176) to the CompactFlash Memory Card or b) if provided use an additional Primary /
Secondary configuration in the CompactFlash Card which does not respond to accesses to I/O
locations 3F7 and 377. With either of these implementations, the host software must not attempt to
use information in the Drive Address Register.
Bit 6 (-WTG)
This bit is 0 when a write operation is in progress, otherwise, it is 1.
Bit 5 (-HS3)
This bit is the negation of bit 3 in the Drive/Head register.
Bit 4 (-HS2)
This bit is the negation of bit 2 in the Drive/Head register.
Bit 3 (-HS1)
This bit is the negation of bit 1 in the Drive/Head register.
Bit 2 (-HS0)
This bit is the negation of bit 0 in the Drive/Head register.
Bit 1 (-nDS1)
This bit is 0 when drive 1 is active and selected.
Bit 0 (-nDS0)
This bit is 0 when the drive 0 is active and selected.
