IORDY
(True IDE 
mode)
27
I
I/O Channel Ready.
The signal is negated
to extend the host transfer cycle of any host 
register access.
-IORD
(True IDE 
mode)
25
I
Device I/O Read.
This is the read strobe
signal from the host. The falling edge of 
IORD enables data from the device onto 
the data bus. The rising edge of IORD 
latches data at the host. The host does not 
act on the data until it is latched.
-DDMARDY
(UDMA write 
protocol 
active)
When UDMA mode DMA write is active in 
all modes, this signal is asserted by the 
device during a data burst to indicate that 
the device is ready to receive UDMA data-
out bursts.
The device may negate -DDMARDY to 
pause a UDMA transfer.
DSTROBE
(UDMA read 
protocol 
active)
When UDMA mode DMA read is active in 
all modes, this signal is the data in strobe 
generated by the device. Both the rising 
and falling edge of DSTROBE cause data 
to be latched by the host. The device may 
stop generating DSTROBE edges to pause 
a UDMA data-in burst.
-IOWR
(True IDE 
mode)
23
I
Device I/O Write.
This is the write strobe
signal from the host. The rising edge of 
IOWR# latches data from the data bit 
signals. The device does not act on the 
data until it is latched. 
-HDMARDY
(UDMA read 
protocol 
active)
When UDMA mode DMA read is active in 
all modes, this signal is asserted by the 
host to indicate that the host is ready to 
receive UDMA data-in bursts. The host may 
negate -HDMARDY to pause a UDMA 
transfer.
