Bus ISA and floppy

**Nergal Michel** · #1 June 4th 09, 09:10 PM posted to alt.comp.hardware

Hi everybody,
I search the diagram of an ISA card with a DiskOnChip.
It must emulate a floppy.

I had a card PCD-897, if you have the diagram, skeletom of this card, i'm
also interrest.

A card with RAM and battery , ramflash can also be solutions....

No one here is likely to have a schematic of an ISA card.

Why not just use floppy emulation software?

I have a machine... and an ISA card. This card call the floppy A:
But the floppy is not a mechanical floppy.
I must have a floppy more than 8 M bytes.

The card PCD-897 can do it, it just use a DiskOnChip and an other
Intergarted Circuit
Sure it decode adresses, Chip Enable, Write, Read... and others PIN... may
be IRQ6

There are numerous software-only solutions...
I'd really not bother trying to use your old ISA device...
but that's up to you of course.

You may want to Google for virtual floppy drive
