6.1.5.14 Word 47: Read/Write Multiple Sector Count
This field contains the maximum number of sectors that
can be read or written per interrupt using the Read
Multiple or Write Multiple commands.
6.1.5.15 Word 48: Double Word Support
This field indicates this product will not support double
word transfers.
6.1.5.16 Word 49: Capabilities
This field indicates this product will not support DMA
Data transfers but does support LBA mode.
6.1.5.17 Word 51: PIO Data Transfer Cycle Timing
Mode
This field defines the mode for PIO data transfer.
6.1.5.18 Word 52: DMA Data Transfer Cycle Timing
Mode
This field states this product doesn’t support any DMA
data transfer mode.
6.1.5.19 Word 53: Translation Parameters Valid
Bit 0 of this field is set, indicating that words 54 to 58
are valid and reflect the current number of cylinders,
heads and sectors. Bit 1 is also set, indicating values in
words 64 through 70 are valid.
6.1.5.20 Words 54-56: Current Number of Cylinders,
Heads, Sectors/Track
These fields contains the current number of user
addressable Cylinders, Heads, and Sectors/Track in the
current translation mode.
6.1.5.21 Words 57- 58: Current Capacity
This field contains the product of the current cylinders
times heads times sectors.
6.1.5.22 Word 59: Multiple Sector Setting
This field contains a validity flag in the odd byte
and the current number of sectors that can be
transferred per interrupt for R/W Multiple in the
even byte. The odd byte is always 01H which
indicates that the even byte is always valid.
The even byte value depends on the value set by the Set
Multiple command. The even byte of this word by
default contains a 00H which indicates that R/W
Multiple commands are not valid. The only other value
returned by the CompactFlash Memory Card in the even
byte is a 01H value which indicates that 1 sector per
interrupt can be transferred in R/W Multiple mode.
6.1.5.23 Words 60-61: Total Sectors Addressable in
LBA Mode
This field contains the number of sectors addressable for
the CompactFlash Memory Card in LBA mode only.
6.1.5.24 Word 64: Advanced PIO Transfer Modes
Supported
Bits 0 and 1 of this field are set to indicate support for
PIO transfer modes 3 and 4, respectively.
6.1.5.25 Word 67: Minimum PIO Transfer Cycle
Time Without Flow Control
This field indicates in nanoseconds, the minimum cycle
time that, if used by the host, the CompactFlash
Memory Card guarantees data integrity during the cycle
without utilization of flow control.
6.1.5.26 Word 68: Minimum PIO Transfer Cycle
Time With Flow Control
This field indicates in nanoseconds, the minimum cycle
time the CompactFlash Memory Card supports while
performing data transfers using flow control.
