Foreword IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0 technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, govern- mental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by the IS0 Council. They are approved in accordance with IS0 procedures requiring at least 75 % approval by the member bodies voting. International Standard IS0 8860-l was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 97, Information processing systems. Users should note that all International Standards undergo revision from time to time and that any reference made herein to any other International Standard implies its latest edition, unless otherwise stated. @ International Organization for Standardization, 1987 l Printed in Switzerland ii SIST EN 28860-1:1997

IS0 8860-2 specifies the track layout, the track format and the characteristics of the recorded signals. IS0 8860-l and IS0 88602, together with the labelling scheme specified in IS0 9293, provide for full data interchange between data processing systems. 1 Scope and field of application This part of IS0 8860 specifies the dimensional, physical and magnetic characteristics of the cartridge, so as to provide physical interchangeability between data processing systems. NOTE - Numeric values in the SI and/or Imperial measurements system in this part of IS0 8860 may have been rounded off and therefore are consistent with, but not exactly equal to, each other. Either system may be used, but the two should be neither intermixed nor reconverted. The original design was made using SI units. 2 Conformance A 90 mm (3.5 in) flexible disk cartridge shall be in conformance with this part of IS0 8860 if it meets all mandatory requirements contained herein. 3 References IS0 683-13, Heat-treated steels, alloy steels and free-cutting steels - Part 73 : Wrought stainless steels.

It ensures centring of the disk on the drive shaft in a unique angular position. 4.3 shutter : A device which uncovers the head windows upon insertion, and automatically covers them upon removal from the drive. 4.4 liner : Suitable material positioned between the case and the disk to provide cleaning action and protection from abrasion. 4.5 case : A protective enclosure including a shutter mechanism and a write-inhibit hole. 4.6 Master Standard Reference Flexible Disk Car- tridge : A reference flexible disk cartridge selected as the stan- dard for reference fields, signal amplitudes, resolution, peak shift and overwrite. Track 00 and track 79 on both sides are declared as reference tracks. The reference tracks are calibrated at 600 r/min. The calibration is also valid at 300 r/min. NOTE - This master standard has been established by the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB), Bundesallee 100, D-3300 Braunschweig, Germany, F. R. 4.7 Secondary Standard Reference Flexible Disk Car- tridge : A flexible disk cartridge the performance of which is known and stated in relation to that of the Master Standard Reference Flexible Disk Cartridge. NOTE - Secondary Standard Reference Flexible Disk Cartridges can be ordered from PTB Lab. 1.41 under Part Number RM 8860 as long as available. It is intended that these be used for calibrating further car- tridges for use in routine calibration. 1 SIST EN 28860-1:1997
