PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
SST’s ATA-Disk Chip (ADC) is a low cost, high performance, embedded flash memory data storage system.
This product is well suited for solid state mass storage
applications offering new and expanded functionality while
enabling cost effective designs.
ATA-based solid state mass storage technology is widely
used in such products as portable and desktop computers,
digital cameras, music players, handheld data collection
scanners, cellular phones, PCS phones, PDAs, handy terminals, personal communicators, advanced two-way pagers,
audio recorders, monitoring devices, and set-top boxes.
ADC provides complete IDE Hard Disk Drive functionality
and compatibility. ADC is a perfect solution to consumer
electronic products requiring smaller, but more reliable and
cost effective data storage. The ADC is read and written to
using a single power supply of 5.0V or 3.3V and is available
in 8 to 192 MByte capacities.
The ADC is a solid state disk drive that is designed to
replace conventional IDE hard disk drive and uses standard ATA/IDE protocol. It has built in microcontroller and file
management firmware that communicates with ATA stan-

dard interfaces; therefore, the ADC does not require additional or proprietary software such as Flash File System
(FFS) and Memory Technology Driver (MTD) software.
The ADC is designed to work at either 5V or 3.3V. The pin
assignment is designed to match existing IDE signal traces
on the motherboard. It uses standard ATA driver that is part
of all major OS such as Windows 95/98/2000/NT/CE,
MAC, UNIX, etc.
All signals, except WP#, are in compliance with the ATA
specifications. WP# is used to write protect the information
stored on the ADC. The WP# can be either connected to
motherboard write protect control logic or a jumper. When
WP# is low, the ADC is write protected to prohibit any inadvertent writes.
Every ADC comes with factory-programmed, 20-Byte long,
unique identification number for extended data protection.
This feature prevents unauthorized duplication by allowing
encryption of customer data.
The ADC is packaged in the 600 mil 32-pin DIP package
for easy and cost effective mounting to the system motherboard.

Data Sheet
1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SST’s ATA-Disk Chip (ADC) contains a controller,
embedded firmware and Flash Media in a 32-pin DIP package. Refer to Figure 1-1 for SST’s ADC block diagram. The
controller interfaces with the host system allowing data to
be written to and read from the Flash Media.
1.1.3 Power Management Unit (PMU)
1.1 Performance-optimized ATA Controller
1.1.4 SRAM Buffer
The heart of the ADC is the ATA controller which translates
standard ATA signals into Flash Media data and controls.
SST’s ADC contains a proprietary ATA controller that was
specifically designed to attain high data throughput from
host to Flash. The following components contribute to the
ATA controller’s operation.
A key contributor to the ATA controller performance is an
SRAM buffer. The buffer optimizes host’s data writes to
Flash Media.
Power Management Unit controls the power consumption
of the ADC. The PMU dramatically extends product battery
life by putting the part of the circuitry that is not in operation
into sleep mode.
1.1.5 Embedded Flash File System
Embedded Flash File System is an integral part of the
SST’s ATA controller. It contains MCU Firmware that performs the following tasks:
1.1.1 Microcontroller Unit (MCU)
The MCU translates ATA commands into data and control
signals required for flash memory operation.
1. Translates host side signals into Flash Media
Writes and Reads.
1.1.2 Internal Direct Memory Access (DMA)
2. Provides Flash Media wear leveling to spread the
Flash writes across all the memory address space
to increase the longevity of Flash Media.
The ATA controller inside ADC uses DMA allowing instant
data transfer from buffer to memory. This implementation
eliminates microcontroller overhead associated with traditional, firmware based, memory control, increasing data
transfer rate.
3. Keeps track of data file structures.
1.1.6 Error Correction Code (ECC)
The ATA Controller contains ECC algorithm that corrects
3 Bytes of error per 512 Byte sector.

3.1.2 ATA-Disk Chip Registers
The following section describes the hardware registers used by the host software to issue commands to the ADC.
These registers are often collectively referred to as the “Task File Registers.”
3.1.2.1 Data Register
This 16-bit register is used to transfer data blocks between the device data buffer and the host. It is also the register
through which sector information is transferred on a Format Track command. Data transfer can be performed in
PIO mode.
3.1.2.2 Error Register (Read Only)
This register contains additional information about the source of an error when an error is indicated in bit 0 of the
Status register. The bits are defined as follows:
D7
D6
D5
D4
D3
D2
D1
D0
BBK
UNC
0
IDNF

Data Sheet
3.1.2.3 Feature Register (Write Only)
This register provides information regarding features of the ADC that the host can utilize.
3.1.2.4 Sector Count Register
This register contains the numbers of sectors of data requested to be transferred on a Read or Write operation
between the host and the ADC. If the value in this register is zero, a count of 256 sectors is specified. If the command was successful, this register is zero at command completion. If not successfully completed, the register contains the number of sectors that need to be transferred in order to complete the request.
3.1.2.5 Sector Number (LBA 7-0) Register
This register contains the starting sector number or bits 7-0 of the Logical Block Address (LBA) for any ADC data
access for the subsequent command.
3.1.2.6 Cylinder Low (LBA 15-8) Register
This register contains the low order 8 bits of the starting cylinder address or bits 15-8 of then Logical Block
Address.
3.1.2.7 Cylinder High (LBA 23-16) Register
This register contains the high order bits of the starting cylinder address or bits 23-16 of the Logical Block Address.
3.1.2.8 Drive/Head (LBA 27-24) Register
The Drive/Head register is used to select the drive and head. It is also used to select LBA addressing instead of
cylinder/head/sector addressing. The bits are defined as follows:
D7

Bit 6
LBA is a flag to select either Cylinder/Head/Sector (CHS) or Logical Block Address Mode (LBA).
When LBA=0, Cylinder/Head/Sector mode is selected. When LBA=1, Logical Block Address is
selected. In Logical Block Mode, the Logical Block Address is interpreted as follows:
LBA7-LBA0: Sector Number Register D7-D0.
LBA15-LBA8: Cylinder Low Register D7-D0.
LBA23-LBA16: Cylinder High Register D7-D0.
LBA27-LBA24: Drive/Head Register bits HS3-HS0.
Bit 5
This bit is set to 1.
Bit 4 (DRV)
DRV is the drive number. When DRV=0 (Master), Master is selected.
When DRV=1(Slave), Slave is selected.
Bit 3 (HS3)
When operating in the Cylinder, Head, Sector mode, this is bit 3 of the head number.
It is Bit 27 in the Logical Block Address mode.
Bit 2 (HS2)
When operating in the Cylinder, Head, Sector mode, this is bit 2 of the head number.
It is Bit 26 in the Logical Block Address mode.
Bit 1 (HS1
When operating in the Cylinder, Head, Sector mode, this is bit 1 of the head number.
It is Bit 25 in the Logical Block Address mode.

3.1.2.9 Status & Alternate Status Registers (Read Only)
These registers return the ADC status when read by the host. Reading the Status register does clear a pending
interrupt while reading the Auxiliary Status register does not. The meaning of the status bits are described as follows:
D7
D6
D5
D4
D3
D2
D1
D0
BUSY
RDY
DWF
DSC
DRQ
CORR
0
ERR
Bit 7 (BUSY) The busy bit is set when the ADC has access to the command buffer and registers and
the host is locked out from accessing the command register and buffer. No other bits in
this register are valid when this bit is set to a 1.
Bit 6 (RDY)
RDY indicates whether the device is capable of performing ADC operations. This bit is
cleared at power up and remains cleared until the ADC is ready to accept a command.
Bit 5 (DWF)
This bit, if set, indicates a write fault has occurred.
Bit 4 (DSC)
This bit is set when the ADC is ready.
Bit 3 (DRQ)
The Data Request is set when the ADC requires that information be transferred either to
or from the host through the Data register.
Bit 2 (CORR) This bit is set when a Correctable data error has been encountered and the data has
been corrected. This condition does not terminate a multi-sector Read operation.
Bit 1 (IDX)
This bit is always set to 0.
Bit 0 (ERR)
This bit is set when the previous command has ended in some type of error. The bits in
the Error register contain additional information describing the error. It is recommended
that media access commands (such as Read Sectors and Write Sectors) that end with
an error condition should have the address of the first sector in error in the command
block registers.
3.1.2.10 Device Control Register (Write Only)
This register is used to control the ADC interrupt request and to issue a software Reset. This register can be written
to even if the device is BUSY. The bits are defined as follows:
D7
D6
D5
D4
D3
D2
D1
D0
X

Bit 5
This bit is an X (don’t care).
Bit 4
This bit is an X (don’t care).
Bit 3
This bit is ignored by the ADC.
Bit 2 (SW Rst) This bit is set to 1 in order to force the ADC to perform a software Reset operation. The
chip remains in Reset until this bit is reset to ‘0.’
Bit 1 (-IEn)
The Interrupt Enable bit enables interrupts when the bit is 0. When the bit is 1, interrupts
from the ADC are disabled. This bit is Reset to 0 at power on and Reset.
Bit 0

3.2 ATA-Disk Chip Command Description
This section defines the software requirements and the format of the commands the host sends to the ADC. Commands
are issued to the ADC by loading the required registers in the command block with the supplied parameters, and then
writing the command code to the Command Register. The manner in which a command is accepted varies. There are
three classes (see Table 3-2) of command acceptance, all dependent on the host not issuing commands unless the
ADC is not busy (BSY=0).

This command writes the desired head and cylinder of the selected drive with a vendor unique data
pattern (typically FFH or 00H). To remain host backward compatible, the ADC expects a sector buffer of
data from the host to follow the command with the same protocol as the Write Sector(s) command
although the information in the buffer is not used by the ADC. If LBA=1 then the number of sectors to
format is taken from the Sec Cnt register (0=256). The use of this command is not recommended.

The Identify Drive command enables the host to receive parameter information from the ADC. This
command has the same protocol as the Read Sector(s) command. The parameter words in the buffer
have the arrangement and meanings defined in Table 3-4. All reserved bits or words are zero. Table 3-4
gives the definition for each field in the Identify Drive Information.

The Read Multiple command is similar to the Read Sector(s) command. Interrupts are not generated on
every sector, but on the transfer of a block which contains the number of sectors defined by a Set
Multiple command.
Command execution is identical to the Read Sectors operation except that the number of sectors
defined by a Set Multiple command are transferred without intervening interrupts. DRQ qualification of
the transfer is required only at the start of the data block, not on each sector.
The block count of sectors to be transferred without intervening interrupts is programmed by the Set
Multiple Mode command, which must be executed prior to the Read Multiple command. When the Read
Multiple command is issued, the Sector Count Register contains the number of sectors (not the number
of blocks or the block count) requested. If the number of requested sectors is not evenly divisible by the
block count, as many full blocks as possible are transferred, followed by a final, partial block transfer.
The partial block transfer is for n sectors, where
n = remainder (sector count/block count).
If the Read Multiple command is attempted before the Set Multiple Mode command has been executed
or when Read Multiple commands are disabled, the Read Multiple operation is rejected with an Aborted
Command error. Disk errors encountered during Read Multiple commands are posted at the beginning
of the block or partial block transfer, but DRQ is still set and the data transfer will take place as it
normally would, including transfer of corrupted data, if any.
Interrupts are generated when DRQ is set at the beginning of each block or partial block. The error
reporting is the same as that on a Read Sector(s) Command. This command reads from 1 to 256
sectors as specified in the Sector Count register. A sector count of 0 requests 256 sectors. The transfer
begins at the sector specified in the Sector Number Register.
At command completion, the Command Block Registers contain the cylinder, head and sector number
of the last sector read.
If an error occurs, the read terminates at the sector where the error occurred. The Command Block
Registers contain the cylinder, head and sector number of the sector where the error occurred. The
flawed data is pending in the sector buffer.
Subsequent blocks or partial blocks are transferred only if the error was a correctable data error. All
other errors cause the command to stop after transfer of the block which contained the error.

The Read Long command performs similarly to the Read Sector(s) command except that it returns 516
Bytes of data instead of 512 Bytes. During a Read Long command, the ADC does not check the ECC
bytes to determine if there has been a data error. Only single sector read long operations are
supported. The transfer consists of 512 Bytes of data transferred in Word-Mode followed by 4 Bytes of
ECC data transferred in Byte-Mode. This command has the same protocol as the Read Sector(s)
command. Use of this command is not recommended.

This command reads from 1 to 256 sectors as specified in the Sector Count register. A sector count of

When this command is issued and after each sector of data (except the last one) has been read by the
host, the ADC sets BSY, puts the sector of data in the buffer, sets DRQ, clears BSY, and generates an
interrupt. The host then reads the 512 Bytes of data from the buffer.
At command completion, the Command Block Registers contain the cylinder, head and sector number
of the last sector read. If an error occurs, the read terminates at the sector where the error occurred.
The Command Block Registers contain the cylinder, head, and sector number of the sector where the

block. Upon receipt of the command, the ADC sets BSY to 1 and checks the Sector Count Register.
If the Sector Count Register contains a valid value and the block count is supported, the value is loaded
for all subsequent Read Multiple and Write Multiple commands and execution of those commands is
enabled. If a block count is not supported, an Aborted Command error is posted, and Read Multiple and
Write Multiple commands are disabled. If the Sector Count Register contains 0 when the command is
issued, Read and Write Multiple commands are disabled. At power on, or after a hardware or (unless
disabled by a Set Feature command) software reset, the default mode is Read and Write Multiple

Note: The current revision of the SST ADC can support up to a block count of 1 as indicated in the Identify Drive Command information.
This command is similar to the Write Sectors command. The ADC sets BSY within 400 ns of accepting
the command. Interrupts are not presented on each sector but on the transfer of a block which contains
the number of sectors defined by Set Multiple. Command execution is identical to the Write Sectors
operation except that the number of sectors defined by the Set Multiple command is transferred without
intervening interrupts.
DRQ qualification of the transfer is required only at the start of the data block, not on each sector. The
block count of sectors to be transferred without intervening interrupts is programmed by the Set Multiple
Mode command, which must be executed prior to the Write Multiple command.
When the Write Multiple command is issued, the Sector Count Register contains the number of sectors
(not the number of blocks or the block count) requested. If the number of requested sectors is not
evenly divisible by the sector/block, as many full blocks as possible are transferred, followed by a final,
partial block transfer. The partial block transfer is for n sectors, where:
n = remainder (sector count/block).
If the Write Multiple command is attempted before the Set Multiple Mode command has been executed
or when Write Multiple commands are disabled, the Write Multiple operation will be rejected with an
aborted command error.

Data Sheet
Errors encountered during Write Multiple commands are posted after the attempted writes of the block
or partial block transferred. The Write command ends with the sector in error, even if it is in the middle
of a block. Subsequent blocks are not transferred in the event of an error. Interrupts are generated
when DRQ is set at the beginning of each block or partial block.
The Command Block Registers contain the cylinder, head and sector number of the sector where the
error occurred and the Sector Count Register contains the residual number of sectors that need to be
transferred for successful completion of the command e.g. each block has 4 sectors, a request for 8
sectors is issued and an error occurs on the third sector. The Sector Count Register contains 6 and the
address is that of the third sector.

This command writes from 1 to 256 sectors as specified in the Sector Count Register. A sector count of
zero requests 256 sectors. The transfer begins at the sector specified in the Sector Number Register.
When this command is accepted, the ADC sets BSY, then sets DRQ and clears BSY, then waits for the
host to fill the sector buffer with the data to be written. No interrupt is generated to start the first host
transfer operation. No data should be transferred by the host until BSY has been cleared by the host.
For multiple sectors, after the first sector of data is in the buffer, BSY will be set and DRQ will be
cleared. After the next buffer is ready for data, BSY is cleared, DRQ is set and an interrupt is generated.
When the final sector of data is transferred, BSY is set and DRQ is cleared. It will remain in this state
until the command is completed at which time BSY is cleared and an interrupt is generated.
If an error occurs during a write of more than one sector, writing terminates at the sector where the
error occurs. The Command Block Registers contain the cylinder, head and sector number of the sector
where the error occurred. The host may then read the command block to determine what error has
occurred, and on which sector.

4.0 APPENDIX
4.1 Differences between ATA-Disk Chip and ATA/ATAPI-5 Specifications
This section details differences between ADC vs. ATA.
4.1.1 Electrical Differences
4.1.1.1 TTL Compatibility
ADC is not TTL compatible, it is a purely CMOS interface. Refer to section 2.3.2 of this specification.
4.1.1.2 Pull Up Resistor Input Leakage Current
The minimum pull up resistor input leakage current is 50K ohms rather than the 10K ohms stated in the
ATA specification.
4.1.2 Functional Differences
4.1.2.1 Idle Timer
The Idle timer uses an incremental value of 5 ms, rather than the 5 sec minimum increment value specified in ATA
specifications.
4.1.2.2 Recovery from Sleep Mode
For ADC devices, recovery from sleep mode is accomplished by simply issuing another command to the device.
A hardware or software reset is not required.
