ABSTRACT:
A controller for interfacing between a digital computer and a magnetic disc recorder, such as a "floppy" disc, or other recorder or memory is disclosed. The controller, which permits accessing of the disc with minimum control by the computer, is realized with relatively few components and is particularly suited for interfacing between a microcomputer and a "minifloppy". Track selection with a computed velocity profile is employed. Synchronization with a soft sectored disc is achieved without additional hardware.
