• Manufacturer Part Number: FDC37B72X_07
• Description: 128 Pin Enhanced Super I/O Controller with ACPI Support
• Manufacturer: SMSC [SMSC Corporation]

Format A Track
The Format command allows an entire track to be
formatted.
detected, the FDC starts writing data on the disk
including gaps, address marks, ID fields, and data
fields per the IBM System 34 or 3740 format (MFM
or FM respectively). The particular values that will
be written to the gap and data field are controlled
by the values programmed into N, SC, GPL, and D
which are specified by the host during the
command phase. The data field of the sector is
filled with the data byte specified by D. The ID field
for each sector is supplied by the host; that is, four
data bytes per sector are needed by the FDC for

C, H, R, and N (cylinder, head, sector number and
sector size respectively).
After formatting each sector, the host must send
new values for C, H, R and N to the FDC for the
next sector on the track. The R value (sector
number) is the only value that must be changed by
the host after each sector is formatted.
allows the disk to be formatted with nonsequential
sector addresses (interleaving). This incrementing
and formatting continues for the whole track until
the FDC encounters a pulse on the IDX pin again
and it terminates the command.
Table 25 contains typical values for gap fields
which are dependent upon the size of the sector
and the number of sectors on each track. Actual
values can vary due to drive electronics.
