-H3,-H2,-H1,-H0
-Head Select. These four bits are the 1's complement of the binary coded address of the
currently selected head. -H0 is the least significant.
-DS1
-Drive Select 1. Drive select bit for device 1, active low. DS1=0 when device 1 (slave) is
selected and active.
-DS0
-Drive Select 0. Drive select bit for device 0, active low. DS0=0 when device 0 (master) is
selected and active.
9.8 Device/Head Register
Figure 70. Device/Head Register
This register contains the device and head numbers.
Bit Definitions
L
Binary encoded address mode select. When L=0, addressing is by CHS mode. When
L=1, addressing is by LBA mode.
DRV
Device. When DRV=0, device 0 (master) is selected. When DRV=1, device 1 (slave) is
selected.
HS3,HS2,HS1,HS0
Head Select. These four bits indicate binary encoded address of the head. HS0 is the
least significant bit. At command completion these bits are updated to reflect the cur-
rently selected head.
The head number may be from zero to the number of heads minus one.
In LBA mode HS3 through HS0 contain bits 24-27 of the LBA. At command completion
these bits are updated to reflect the current LBA bits 24-27.
