Code
61000-04497-104, January 2007
This command checks the power mode.
This command performs the internal diagnostic tests implemented
by the ATA PC Card. The Diagnostic Code is returned in the Error
Register.
This command is used to pre-erase and condition data sectors in
advance.
This command writes the desired head and cylinder of the
selected drive with a vender unique data pattern (typically 00h or
FFh). This ATA PC Card accepts a sector buffer of data from the
host to follow the command with the same protocol as the Write
Sector Command although the information in the buffer is not
used.
This command lets the host receive parameter information from
the ATA PC Card in the same protocol as Read Sector(s)
command.
This command causes the ATA PC Card to set BSY, enter the Idle
mode, clear BSY, and generate an interrupt. If the sector count is
non-zero, automatic power down mode is enabled. If the sector
count is zero, the automatic power down mode is disabled.
This command causes the ATA PC Card to set BSY, enter the Idle
mode, clear BSY, and generate an interrupt.
This command enables the host to set the number of sectors per
track and the number of heads per cylinder.
No Operation.
This command enables the host to read the current contents of
the ATA PC Card’s sector buffer.
This command is the sector read command used for Multiword
DMA transfer.
This command performs similarly to the Read Sectors command.
Interrupts are not generated on each sector, but on the transfer of
a block which contains the number of sectors defined by a Set
Multiple command.
This command performs similarly to the Read Sector(s) command
except that it returns 516 bytes of data instead of 512 bytes.
This command reads from 1 to 256 sectors as specified in the
Sector Count register. A sector count of 0 requests 256 sectors.
The transfer begins at the sector specified in the Sector Number
register.
