DIGITAL OUTPUT REGISTER (DOR)
also contains the enable for the DMA logic and a
software reset bit. The contents of the DOR are
unaffected by a software reset. The DOR can
be written to at any time.
Address 3F2 READ/WRITE
The DOR controls the drive select and motor
enables of the disk interface outputs. It

BIT 0 and 1 DRIVE SELECT
BIT 4 MOTOR ENABLE 0
These two bits are binary encoded for the four
drive selects DS0 -DS3, thereby allowing only
one drive to be selected at one time.
This bit controls the MTR0 disk interface output.
A logic "1" in this bit will cause the output pin to
go active.
BIT 2 nRESET
BIT 5 MOTOR ENABLE 1
A logic "0" written to this bit resets the Floppy
disk controller. This reset will remain active
until a logic "1" is written to this bit. This
software reset does not affect the DSR and CCR
registers, nor does it affect the other bits of the
DOR register. The minimum reset duration
required is 100ns, therefore toggling this bit by
consecutive writes to this register is a valid
method of issuing a software reset.
This bit controls the MTR1 disk interface output.
A logic "1" in this bit will cause the output pin to
go active.
BIT 6 MOTOR ENABLE 2
This bit controls the MTR2 disk interface output.
A logic "1" in this bit will cause the output pin to
go active.
BIT 7 MOTOR ENABLE 3
BIT 3 DMAEN
PC/AT and Model 30 Mode:
This bit controls the MTR3 disk interface output.
A logic "1" in this bit causes the output to go
active.
Writing this bit to logic "1" will enable the DRQ,
nDACK, TC and FINTR outputs. This bit being
a logic "0" will disable the nDACK and TC
inputs, and hold the DRQ and FINTR outputs in
a high impedance state. This bit is a logic "0"
after a reset and in these modes.

PS/2 Mode: In this mode the DRQ, nDACK, TC
and FINTR pins are always enabled. During a
reset, the DRQ, nDACK, TC, and FINTR pins
will remain enabled, but this bit will be cleared to
a logic "0".
