FLOPPY DISK CONTROLLER
The Floppy Disk Controller (FDC) provides the
interface between a host microprocessor and
the floppy disk drives. The FDC integrates the
functions of the Formatter/Controller, Digital
Data Separator, Write Precompensation and
Data Rate Selection logic for an IBM XT/AT
compatible FDC.
guarantees 100% IBM PC XT/AT compatibility
in addition to providing data overflow and
underflow protection.
The FDC37C665GT and FDC37C666GT are
compatible to the 82077AA using SMSC's
proprietary floppy disk controller core.
For information on the floppy disk on Parallel Port pins, refer to Configuration Register CR4
and Parallel Port Floppy Disk Controller description.

REGISTERS
The Floppy Disk Controller contains eight
internal registers which facilitate the interfacing
between the host microprocessor and the disk
drive. Table 2 shows the addresses required to
access these registers. Registers other than the
ones shown are not supported. The rest of the
description assumes that the primary addresses
have been selected.
