Figure 126 Write Long Command (32h/33h)
The Write Long command transfers the data and the ECC bytes of the designated one sector from the host to the
device, then the data and the ECC bytes are written to the disk media.
After 512 bytes of data have been transferred, the device will keep setting DRQ=1 to indicate that the device is
ready to receive the ECC bytes from the host. The data is transferred 16 bits at a time, and the ECC bytes are
transferred 8 bits at a time. The number of ECC bytes are 4 or 52 according to setting of Set Feature option. The
default number after power on is 4 bytes.
Output Parameters To The Device
Sector Count
The number of continuous sectors to be transferred. The Sector Count must be set to
one.
LBA Low
The sector number of the sector to be transferred. (L=0) In LBA mode, this register
contains LBA bits 0 - 7. (L=1)
LBA
High/Mid
The cylinder number of the sector to be transferred. (L=0) In LBA mode, this register
contains LBA bits 8 - 15 (Mid), 16 - 23 (High). (L=1)
H
The head number of the sector to be transferred. (L=0) In LBA mode, this register
contains LBA bits 24 - 27. (L=1)
R
The retry bit, but this bit is ignored.
Input Parameters From The Device
Sector Count
The number of requested sectors not transferred.
LBA Low
The sector number of the sector to be transferred. (L=0) In LBA mode, this register
contains current LBA bits 0 - 7. (L=1)
LBA
High/Mid
The cylinder number of the sector to be transferred. (L=0) In LBA mode, this register
contains current LBA bits 8 - 15 (Mid), 16 - 23 (High). (L=1)
H
The head number of the sector to be transferred. (L=0) In LBA mode, this register
contains current LBA bits 24 - 27. (L=1)
The file internally uses 52 bytes of ECC on all data read or writes. The 4 byte mode of operation is provided via an
emulation technique. As a consequence of this emulation it is recommended that 52 byte ECC mode is used for all
tests to confirm the operation of the files ECC hardware. Unexpected results may occur if such testing is performed
using 4 byte mode.
