1. Preface
This application note describes how to integrate the DiskOnChip 2000 with PC compatible
systems. The DiskOnChip 2000 is a single chip FlashDisk designed to plug into a standard 32pin EEPROM socket. The DiskOnChip 2000 should be mapped into an 8KByte window in
the BIOS expansion address space of the PC, which is usually located between address
0C0000H to 0EFFFFH.
The DiskOnChip 2000 contains a built-in copy of the M-Systems industry-standard TrueFFS
software, which makes the DiskOnChip operate as a standard disk drive. The DiskOnChip
2000 can contain the operating system in it to allow systems to boot without a hard disk. The
DiskOnChip 2000 can also be configured as the boot device in systems with a hard disk (see
below Configuring the DiskOnChip 2000 as the first drive).
The DiskOnChip is a self-contained device. The installation of the DiskOnChip does not
require any software installation. The design of the DiskOnChip allows for full upward and
downward compatibility. While available today in capacities of 2 to 72MBytes, future
DiskOnChip devices with higher densities, will be fully compatible with standard DiskOnChip
sockets. The basic design of the DiskOnChip actually supports an unlimited capacity.

Notes:
1 The above design example shows a DiskOnChip 2000 mapped into an 8KByte window. The DiskOnChip 2000 is compatible
with larger windows and will operate and BOOT properly with larger window sizes such as 32KByte and 64KByte windows.
2 Pin 30 connection to VCC is optional - to support 28 pin devices
