    摘要: It is an object of the present invention to provide a control unit for an electric power steering apparatus for accurately detecting an abnormality of a steering angle sensor without forming the steering angle sensor as a double system or using an expensive position detection sensor. The object is achieved by calculating a relative steering angle by using inexpensive position detection sensors disposed at a motor of the electric power steering apparatus to output binary values and comparing a change amount of an absolute steering angle detected by the steering angle sensor and a change amount of the calculated relative steering angle with each other to thereby detect the abnormality of the steering angle sensor.

    摘要: A storage medium (magnetic disk) in a storage device (magnetic disk device) includes a disk that stores therein data, a head that reads and writes data, a voice motor coil (VCM) that controls the head, and a ramp where the head is retracted. The storage device detects a current used for speed control during unloading of the head, and determines whether the current exceeds a predetermined value. The storage device detects a head position where the current exceeds a predetermined value as a ramp position, stores the ramp position, and unloads the head based on the ramp position.

    摘要: A falling-time measuring unit measures time for which a fall of a storage device is consecutively detected by a fall detecting sensor. A head-position detecting unit detects a position of the head on a storage medium at a time of starting measuring the time. A moving-time calculating unit calculates necessary time for moving the head from the detected position to a destination position. A first-threshold determining unit determines whether the measured time exceeds a threshold calculated by a threshold calculating unit. A head-movement processing unit moves the head to the destination position when it is determined that the measured time exceeds the first threshold.

    摘要: A head retracting apparatus retracts a head on a storage medium upon detecting a fall. A counter-value calculating unit calculates a counter value that changes with an increase of a falling time and an increase of a non-falling time. A retraction determining unit determines whether to retract the head, based on the calculated counter value.

    摘要: Track pitches of all the tracks of a disk medium provided in a storage apparatus are examined in a manufacturing examination step. First of all, a target position path which varies a target track position so that the position crosses the tracks is generated, and a head actuator is subjected to feedback control so that head detection positions track the target position path. Track pitch abnormality is determined when an error between the target position path and the head detection positions exceeds a predetermined threshold value, and the track number is recorded in a track skip table of the medium. As the target position path, a target position sine-wave path having the amplitude of the width of plural tracks is generated in synchronization with rotation of the medium. As another target position path, a target position straight-line path which passes each track interval in certain time between the outermost and the innermost of the medium is generated.
