Description:

• This integrated circuit comprises the logic and control capabilities required for linking a processor with up to four floppy disk drives.
• It supports IBM-compatible formats in both single and double density recording, making it appropriate for a wide range of disk-based applications.
• Memory Storage: Supports both IBM 3740 single density and IBM System 34 double density formats, including double-sided recording.
• Data records can be 128, 256, 512, or 1024 bytes long.
• Multi-Sector and Multi-Track Transfers: Capable of efficiently transferring across sectors and tracks.
• DMA and Non-DMA Modes: Supports both Direct Memory Access (DMA) and Non-DMA activities.
• Control Signals: Provides control signals that aid in the construction of an external phase-locked loop and PR compensation circuitry.
• Clock Speed: Runs on a single-phase 8MHz clock.
• Power Supply: Only one +5V power supply is required.
• Available in common IC packages to provide interoperability with a variety of systems.
