1. Type of RAM: 256K×4×1 DRAM or 256K×4×2 DRAM 2. Type of Host Interface: ATA (IDE) plus ATAPI CD-ROM FIG. 10 is a description of the address register. The internal registers are indirectly addressed. The AR register holds the address of the register accessed with the subsequent R/W operation. The AR is read or written by the microcontroller if URS=0. If URS=1, the register addressed by the AR is read or written.
XTALD2—bit 0—Crystal Divided by 2“1” sets the internal controller clock to ½ crystal frequency. “0” sets the internal clock to the crystal frequency (no divider). XTALD2 is cleared to 0 by hardware reset, but is not changed by firmware reset.
