P11 Function; Staggered Spin-Up; Driving Activity Led - Fujitsu MHW2160BH Product Manual

5.1.5 P11 function

The disk drive supports the following functions when P11 pin in the power supply
segment of interface connector is used as an input or output pin.
P11 pin supports the functions as follows:
•

Staggered Spin-up:

•

Driving Activity LED:

The following is P11 setting and hardware requirement for these functions.
5.1.5.1 Staggered Spin-up
It is able to set whether the disk drive spins up at power on or not, by input voltage
level of 11th pin at the power supply segment on the interface connector.
a) P11 → Open (no connection):
b) P11 → Grounded (0.8 V or less): Staggered Mode Disable.
c) P11 → "High" level (The P11 line in the host system is pulled up by
5.1.5.2 Driving Activity LED
It is possible that the disk drive is able to drive P11 pin as output for indication of
Activity LED.
a) P11 output level → "Low":
b) P11 output level → "High": It indicates that the command is not
It is necessary to meet the requirements for P11 as output pin in case of driving
Activity LED.
