The core implements programmable I/O, Multiword DMA and Ultra ATA-33, -66, -100 and -133 modes of operation, and supports up to two devices.
The core interface to the SoC provides PIO access and DMA capability to optimise data transfers to and from the IDE devices.
For ease of integration, the BK-3710 includes a register set compatible with the Intel chipset, including a descriptor-based scatter-gather DMA core.
This core is compatible with ATA-4 with Ultra ATA-33, -66, -100 and -133 extensions.
