ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for a compact disk with an independent audio functionality is disclosed. The apparatus includes a logic core, an IDE controller, and a pass-through module, which are coupled to a micro-controller core. The logic core receives and sends signals to and from a system interface in response to the micro-controller core. The logic core disables sending signals to the system interface in response to the micro-controller core. The IDE controller core receives and sends signals to and from a CD drive interface in response to the micro-controller core. The IDE controller core also disables sending signals to the CD drive interface in response to the micro-controller core. The pass-through module is coupled to the system interface and to the CD drive interface. The pass-through module passes signals between the system interface and the CD drive interface when the computer is in power on mode.
