Device-Side Detection BIOS Queries IDE Drive for Cable Type

Page 84 highlights

Layout/Routing Guidelines Device-Side Detection (BIOS Queries IDE Drive for Cable Type) Device side detection requires only a 0.047 uF capacitor on the motherboard as shown in Figure 2-47. This mechanism creates a resistor-capacitor (RC) time constant. The ATA mode 3 or 4 drive will drive PDIAG/CBLID low and then release it (pulled up through a 10 KΩ resistor) The drive will sample the PDIAG signal after releasing it. In an 80-conductor cable, PDIAG/CBLID is not connected through and, therefore, the capacitor has no effect. In a 40-conductor cable, PDIAG/ CBLID is connected though to the drive. Therefore, the signal rises more slowly. The drive can detect the difference in rise times and it reports the cable type to the BIOS when it sends the IDENTIFY_DEVICE packet during system boot as described in the ATA/66 specification.

Design Guide
Device-Side Detection (BIOS Queries IDE Drive for Cable Type)
Device side detection requires only a 0.047 uF capacitor on the motherboard as shown in
Figure 2-47
. This mechanism creates a resistor-capacitor (RC) time constant. The ATA mode 3 or 4
drive will drive PDIAG/CBLID low and then release it (pulled up through a 10 K
resistor) The
drive will sample the PDIAG signal after releasing it. In an 80-conductor cable, PDIAG/CBLID is
not connected through and, therefore, the capacitor has no effect. In a 40-conductor cable, PDIAG/
CBLID is connected though to the drive. Therefore, the signal rises more slowly. The drive can
detect the difference in rise times and it reports the cable type to the BIOS when it sends the
IDENTIFY_DEVICE packet during system boot as described in the ATA/66 specification.
Layout for BOTH Host-Side and Drive-Side Cable Detection
It is possible to layout for both Host-Side and Drive-Side cable detection and decide the method to
be used during assembly.
Figure 2-48
shows the layout that allows for both host-side and drive-side
detection.
For Host-Side Detection:
R1 is a 0
resistor
R2 is a 15 K
resistor
C1 is not stuffed
For Drive-Side Detection:
R1 is not stuffed
R2 is not stuffed
C1 is a 0.047 uF capacitor
