Datasheet

If bits 15:12 are set to 8h then Word 0 shall be 848Ah.
If bits 15:12 are set to 0h then Bits 11:0 are set using the definitions below and the Card is required to
support for the CFA command set and report that in bit 2 of Word 83.
Bit 15:12 values other than 8h and 0h are prohibited.
Bits 11-8: Retired
These bits have retired ATA bit definitions. It is recommended that the value of these bits be either the
preferred value of 0h or the value of 4h t hat preserves the corresponding bits from the 848Ah CF signature
value.
Bit 7: Removable Media Device
If Bit 7 is set to 1, the Card contains media that can be removed during Card operation.
If Bit 7 is set to 0, the Card contains nonremovable media.
Bit 6: Not Removable Controller and/ or Device
Alert! This bit will be considered for obsolescence in a future revision of this standard.
If Bit 6 is set to 1, the Card is intended to be nonremovable during operation.
If Bit 6 is set to 0, the Card is intended to be removable during operation.
Bits 5-0: Retired/Reserved
Alert! Bit 2 will be considered for definition in a future revision of this standard and shall be 0 at this
time.
Bits 5-1 have retired ATA bit definitions.
Bit 2 shall be 0.
Bit 0 is Reserved and shall be 0.
It is recommended that the value of bits 5-0 be either the preferred value of 00h or the value of 0Ah that
preserves the c orresponding bits from the 848Ah CF signature value.
