This bit is set to “1” in order to force the card to perform Task File Reset operation.
This does not change the Card Configuration registers as a Hardware Reset does.
The card remains in Reset until this bit is reset to “0”.
This bit is used for enabling −IREQ. When this bit is set to “0”, −IREQ is enabled.
When this bit is set to “1”, −IREQ is disabled.
This bit is set to “0”.
13. Drive Address register
This register is read only register, and it is used for confirming the drive status. This register is provides for
compatibility with the AT disk drive interface. It is recommended that this register is not mapped into the
