ABSTRACT: This standard defines mechanical, electrical, and functional
requirements for attaching small computers employing an AT Bus with
intelligent peripheral devices. The resulting interface provides a common
interface specification for systems manufacturers, system integrators,
controller manufacturers, and suppliers of intelligent disk drives.
CAUTION: This is a preliminary draft of the proposed standard. It is subject
to change without notice, at the sole discretion of the CAM Committee. It is
likely that some sections may change significantly, and most sections will
change to some extent in the course of further development of this draft
standard. This draft is distributed solely for the purpose of review and
comment, and it should not be used as a design document without assuming the
risk of an early implementation.
COPYRIGHT NOTICE: This draft standard is based upon product specifications of
contributing members, these documents may be copyrighted by the individual
companies. This draft standard may be reproduced without further permission,
for the purpose of review and comment or for the purpose of including in an
appropriate product specification provided the risk of early implementation is
assumed. All other rights are reserved.

This document has been prepared according to the style guide of the ISO
(International Organization of Standards).
If this document was printed in a 2-up form directly from the printer, NOTEs
had to be adjusted to fit into a half-page, which may have resulted in an
imperfect representation of the format within the NOTE. This is most likely
to occur if a series of NOTEs are mixed in without any line separation.
