Electrical interface specifications

Model:  DCYA-214000

Cabling
The maximum cable length from the host system to the drive plus circuit pattern in the host system shall not exceed 18 inches.

A/T interface connector
The A/T interface connector is designed to mate with Dupont part number 69764-044 or equivalent.
A/T interface connector
Notes: A/T = IDE. Pin position 20 is left blank for secure connector insertion. Pin position A,B,C, and D are used for drive address setting.

Signal definition

The pin assignments of interface signals are listed as follows:

05 DD06 I/O 06 DD09 I/O
07 DD05 I/O 08 DD10 I/O
09 DD04 I/O 10 DD11 I/O
11 DD03 I/O 12 DD12 I/O
13 DD02 I/O 14 DD13 I/O
15 DD01 I/O 16 DD14 I/O

43 GND   44 Reserved  

Notes:
 
  1. "O" designates an output from the drive.
  2. "I" designates an input to the drive.
  3. "I/O" designates an input/output common.
  4. "PWR" designates a power supply to the drive.
  5. "(Resv)" designates reserved pins which must be left unconnected.
  6. "*" these signal lines are redifined during the Ultra DMA protocol to provide special functions as detailed in the table below. These lines change from the conventional to special definitions at the moment the host decides to allow a DMA burst, if the Ultra DMA transfer mode was previously chosen via SetFeatures. The drive becomes aware of this change upon assertion of the -DMACK line. These lines revert back to their original definitions upon the deassertion of -DMACK at the termination of the DMA burst.

     
    Special Definition (Ultra DMA) Conventional Definition
    Write Operation -DDMARDY IORDY
    HSTROBE -DIOR
    STOP -DIOW
    Read Operation -HDMARDY -DIOR
    DSTROBE IORDY
    STOP -DIOW
