The parallel ATA module can work on PIO/multiword DMA/ultra-DMA transfer modes (not available for
the MCIMX351). Each transfer mode has a different data transfer rate, Ultra DMA mode 4 data transfer
rate is up to 100 MBps.
The parallel ATA module interface consists of a total of 29 pins. Some pins have different functions in
different transfer modes. There are various requirements for timing relationships among the function pins,
in compliance with the ATA/ATAPI-6 specification, and these requirements are configurable by the ATA
module registers.

This section discusses ATA parameters. For a detailed description, refer to the ATA-6 specification.
Level shifters are required for 3.3-V or 5.0-V compatibility on the ATA interface.
The use of bus buffers introduces delays on the bus and introduces skew between signal lines. These
factors make it difficult to operate the bus at the highest speed (UDMA-5) when bus buffers are used. Use
of bus buffers is not recommended if fast UDMA mode is required.
The ATA specification imposes a slew rate limit on the ATA bus. According to this limit, any signal driven
on the bus should have a slew rate between 0.4 and 1.2 V/ns with a 40 pF load. Few vendors of bus buffers
specify the slew rate of the outgoing signals.
When bus buffers are used the ata_data bus buffer is bidirectional, and uses the direction control signal
ata_buffer_en. When ata_buffer_en is asserted, the bus should drive from host to device. When

all capacitive loads from 15 pF through 40 pF, where all signals have the same capacitive load value.
