General Description

The uPD765A/B is an LSI floppy disk controller (FDC) chip which contains the circuitry and control functions for interfacing a processor to 4 floppy disk drives.

It is capableof either IBM 3740singledensity format (FM), or IBM System 34 double density format (MFM) including double-sided recording.

The uPD765A/B provides control signals which simplify the design of an external phase-locked loop and write precompensation circuitry.

Overview

NEC NEC Electronics Inc.

uPD765A/uPD765B Single/Double Density Floppy-Disk.

Key Features

  • Address mark detection circuitry is internal to the FDC which simplifies the phase-locked loop and read elec- tronics. The track stepping rate, head load time, and head unload time are user-programmable. The uPD765A/uPD765B offers additional features such as multi-track and multi-side read and write commands and single and double density capabilities. FM, MFM Control Variable recording length: 128,256, .8192 bytes/ sector IBM-compatible format (single- and doublesided, single- and dou.
