- The timing is measured through the interface with the drive
- operating at nominal DC input voltages. The timing also
- makes the following assumptions:
-
- o BIOS overhead and PC system hardware dependency have
- been subtracted from timing measurements.
-
- o The drive is operated using its native drive parameters.
- The average seek time is determined by averaging the seek
- time for a minimum of 1000 seeks of random length over the
- surface of the disk.
- These numbers assume spin recovery is not invoked. If
- spin recovery is invoked, the maximum could be 40 seconds.
- Briefly removing power can lead to spin recovery being invoked.

- or seeking. The motor is up to speed and DRIVE READY condition
- exists. Actuator is residing on last accessed track.
-
- Standby Mode: Occurs when the motor is stopped, actuator
- parked and all electronics except interface control is in
- sleep state. STANDBY MODE will occur after a programmable
- time-out since last Host access occurs. Drive ready and seek
- complete status exist. The drive will leave STANDBY MODE upon
- receipt of a command which requires disk access or upon receipt
- of a spin up command.
-
- Spin-up Mode: Occurs while the spindle motor is accelerating
- from its state to its operational speed. During the typical
- spin-up cycle, current on the 12 volt line may reach up to 900 mA

-
- 5.0 Functional Description
-
- The CP3000 contains all mechanical and electronic parts
- necessary to interpret control signals, position the recording
- heads over the desired track, read and write data, and provide
- a contaminant free environment for the heads and disks.
-
- 5.1 Read/Write and Control Electronics
-
- One integrated circuit is mounted within the sealed enclosure
- in close proximity to the read/write heads. Its function is
- to provide one of two head selections, read pre-amplification,
- and write data circuitry.
-
- The single microprocessor controlled circuit card provides the
- remaining electronic functions which include:
-
- o Read/Write Circuitry
- o Rotary Actuator Control
- o Interface Control
- o Spin Speed Control
- o Dynamic Braking
- o Power Management
-
- At power down or the start of STANDBY MODE, the heads are
- automatically retracted to the inner diameter of the disk.
- There they are latched and parked on a landing zone that is
- inside the data tracks.
-
- 5.2 Drive Mechanism
-
- A brushless DC direct drive motor rotates the spindle at
- 3557 rpm. The motor/spindle assembly is balanced to provide
- minimal mechanical runout to the disks and to reduce vibration
- of the HDA. A dynamic brake is used to provide a fast stop to
- the spindle motor when power is removed, or upon initiation of
- STANDBY MODE.
-
- 5.3 Air Filtration System
-
- The head-disk assembly is a sealed enclosure with an integral
- 0.3 micron filter which maintains a clean environment for the
- heads and disks.
-
- 5.4 Head Positioning Mechanism
-
- The two read/write heads are supported by a mechanism coupled
- to the voice coil actuator.
-
- 5.5 Read/Write Heads and Disks
-
- Data is recorded on one 95 mm diameter disk through two 3370
- type composite ferrite heads.
-
- 5.6 Error Correction
-
- The CP3000 performs internal error correction. The error
- correction polynomial is capable of correcting one error burst
- with a maximum of 8 bits per 512 byte block. The following
- polynomial is used:
-
- Forward: P(X) = (X32+X28+X26+X19+X17+X10+X6+X2+1)
-
- 5.7 Customer Options
-
- There are four jumper options available for configuration:
- HSP, C/D, DSP, and ACT.
-
- HSP, when jumpered, connects the -HOST SLV/ACT signal on
- the interface to ground for systems that require the slave
- drive to provide -SLAVE PRESENT signal in a two-drive system.
-
- C/D is the address jumper. When jumpered, the master
- (or C drive), is selected. When open, the slave (or D drive),
- is selected.
-
- DSP, when jumpered, indicates to the master drive that a slave
- is present. In a two-drive system, this jumper option must be
- installed in the master, or C drive.
-
- The last jumper, ACT, connects the -ACTIVE signal to the
- -HOST SLV/ACT signal on the interface. This signal provides
- the capability to drive an external LED. An external current
- limiting resistor is required.
-
- As an alternative, an LED may be connected between J4, pins 1
- and 2. This would provide both an open collector drive signal
- and a current limiting resistor connected to +5V respectively.
-
-
-
-
- Note 1: In a two drive system, it is possible to drive one LED
- with both drives. An external current limiting resistor
- is required.
- Note 2: If the drive is connected to a Host that requires that
- the signal -DRIVE SLAVE PRESENT be supplied from the slave
- drive, via the interface signal -HOST SLV/ACT, then this
- jumper must be installed. If this jumper is installed,
- the ACT jumper must not be installed because the two jumpers
- are mutually exclusive.
-
-
- 6.0 Electrical Interface
-
- 6.1 Power Connectors
-
- The CP3000 has a 4-pin DC power connector (J3) mounted on the
- PCB. The recommended mating connector is AMP part number 1-480424-0
- utilizing AMP pins (part number 350078-4 or equivalent).
- DC power may also be supplied to the drive through a 3 pin
- connector (J5). The recommended mating connector is Molex part
- number 39-01-0033 utilizing Molex pins (part number 39-00-0031
- or equivalent).
- Power is to be supplied at either J3 or J5, but not both.
-
-
- 6.3 Task File Interface Connector
-
- The CP3000 has a 40-pin Task File Interface connector (J2)
- mounted on the printed circuit board. The recommended mating
- connector is Molex part number 10-91-2401 or equivalent.
- Two drives may be daisy chained together at this connector.
- Maximum cable length is two feet.
-
- 6.4 Diagnostic Routines
-
- The microprocessor performs diagnostics upon application of
- power. If an error is detected, the CP3000 will not come ready.
-
- 7.0 Recommended Mounting Configuration
-
- The CP3000 drive is designed to be used in applications where
- the unit may experience shock and vibrations at greater levels
- than larger and heavier disk drives.
-
- 7.1 Shock Tolerance Features
-
- The design features which allow greater shock tolerance are
- the use of rugged heads and media, a dedicated landing zone,
- closed loop servo positioning, and specially designed motor
- and actuator assemblies.
-
- 7.2 Mechanically Isolated Mounting Points
-
- Ten base mounting points are provided to the customer.
- The drive is mounted using 6-32 screws; 1/8" maximum insertion
- for the sides, and 1/4" maximum insertion for the bottom.
- The system integrator should allow ventilation to the drive to
- ensure reliable drive operation over the operating temperature
- range. The drive may be mounted in any attitude.
-
- For additional vibration isolation, an external suspension
- system may be used.
-
- 8.0 Electrical Description
-
- 8.1 Signal Levels
-
- All signal levels are TTL compatible. A logic "1" is greater
- than 2.0 volts. A logic "0" is from 0.00 volts to .70 volts.
-
- 8.2 Signal Conventions
-
- The interface between the drive adapter and the drive is called
- the Host Interface. The set of registers in the I/O space of the
- Host is known as the Task File.
-
- All signals on the Host Interface shall have the prefix HOST.
- All negatively active signals shall be further prefixed with
- a "-" designation. All positive active signals shall be prefixed
- with a "+" designation. Signals whose source are the Host, are
- said to be "outbound" and those whose source is the drive, are
- said to be "inbound".
-
- 8.3 Pin Descriptions
-

- used for register and ECC access.
- All 16 bits are used for data
- transfers. These are tri-state
- lines with 24 mA drive capability.
-
- GND O 19 Ground between drive and Host.
