I need to know the locations of the pins, where is pin1, pin2 etc on the card. I have the functions for them already.
I am making an addaptor for a 1.8" 'ipod' hard drive. It (the drive) is pin accurate to a laptop drive, only smaller and uses only 3.3v. I am hoping to get it to detect as a mass storage device usinf a usb-cf reader.

I might be confused, but would a 2.5inch or CF to ide adapter or combination of these work?

Might be issues, as CF mass storage is required to implement ATAPI, but ATAPI is not required to implement CF memory access. If the USB-CF reader expects the CF card to be mapped memory, then it will fail.

Its been done with CF to 2.5" laptop hard drive, the 1.8" drive is pin-identicle to laptop drives.

This seems to be correct (I'm still not sure though).

Yes this is correct. If you looking into connector before inserting the card,the pin1 is on the top left,bottom left the 26pin,stc. I'm working on a CF card project too,and f*cked upp one card before,because mis-undersandable pictures in CF specification,and on other sites. My final goal is a "natural" C64 memory expansion intercafed CF card,in memory mode(IDE mode need a litle bit complicated adressing and 16data lines). Let me know if somebody interested in my work. I know IDE64 interfacing CF card also. But I think,that's a different,more complicated thing,with commercial schematic and not accessible at this time. The simple assemby-coded fat16 handler will be a part of my project too.This is already working in emulator,loading a file under vice from a "fat16mapped" image. Picture of my prototype (before connected with "plug in wires" to the expansion): motohacker.fw.hu/HARD/CFconv.JPG |
