Pin # Signal Descriptions (J1 Row D)
31 (D10) DACK5* DMA Acknowledge 5 – Used by DMA controller to select the I/O resource
requesting the bus, or to request ownership of the bus as a bus master
device. Can also be used by the ISA bus master to gain control of the bus
from the DMA controller.
32 (D11) DRQ5
DMA Request 5 – Used by I/O resources to request DMA service. Must be
held high until associated DACK5 line is active.
33 (D12) DACK6* DMA Acknowledge 6 – Used by DMA controller to select the I/O resource
requesting the bus, or to request ownership of the bus as a bus master
device. Can also be used by the ISA bus master to gain control of the bus
from the DMA controller.
34 (D13) DRQ6 DMA Request 6 – Used by I/O resources to request DMA service. Must be
held high until associated DACK6 line is active.
35 (D14) DACK7* DMA Acknowledge 7 – Used by DMA controller to select the I/O resource
requesting the bus, or to request ownership of the bus as a bus master
device. Can also be used by the ISA bus master to gain control of the bus
from the DMA controller.
36 (D15) DRQ7 DMA Request 7 – Used by I/O resources to request DMA service. Must be
held high until associated DACK7 line is active.
37 (D16) +5V +5V Power +/- 10%
38 (D17) MASTER* Bus Master Assert – This signal is used by an ISA board along with a DRQ
line to gain ownership of the ISA bus. Upon receiving a -DACK a device
can pull -MASTER low which will allow it to control the system address,
data, and control lines. After -MASTER is low, the device should wait one
CLK period before driving the address and data lines, and two clock
periods before issuing a read or write command.
39 (D18) GND Ground
40 (D19) GND Ground
Notes: The shaded area denotes power or ground. The signals marked with * = Negative true logic.
