摘要:
Various embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for determining changes in fly-height. For example, various embodiments of the present invention provide storage devices that include a storage medium having servo data thereon. A read/write head assembly is disposed in relation to the storage medium. A servo based fly-height adjustment circuit receives the servo data via the read/write head assembly, and calculates a first harmonics ratio based on the received data and compares the first harmonics ratio with a second harmonics ratio to determine an error in the distance between the read/write head assembly and the storage medium.
摘要:
Various embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for determining fly-height adjustments. For example, various embodiments of the present invention provide storage devices that include a storage medium, a read/write head assembly disposed in relation to the storage medium (278), and a SAM based fly-height adjustment circuit (214). The storage medium (278) includes a plurality of servo data regions (110) that each include a servo address mark (154). The SAM based fly-height adjustment circuit (214) receives the servo address mark (154) from the plurality of servo data regions (110) via the read/write head assembly (276), and calculates a first harmonics ratio (445) based on the received data. The first harmonics ratio (445) is compared with a second harmonics ratio (450) to determine an error (365) in the distance (295) between the read/write head assembly (276) and the storage medium (278).
