摘要:
An optical drive includes: an optical pickup; a preprocessing circuit which processes an optical signal detected by the optical pickup; nonvolatile memory having stored therein relation information which represents the relation of a signal balance with respect to a signal difference between a TE signal and an FE signal at the time of a predetermined operation of the optical pickup; and a central processing circuit which performs focus control of the optical pickup. The preprocessing circuit generates the signal balance of the optical pickup. The preprocessing circuit also obtains the FE signal and the TE signal with respect to the optical disc. The central processing circuit derives a phase difference and an amplitude difference from the signal balance and the relation information, and calculates, based on the differences and the TE signal, a FE signal suitable for the predetermined operation.

A rotary electric component includes a case for accommodating a rotary body having a cylindrical operation portion and for rotatably supporting the rotary body and a substrate having a rotation detecting means linked to the rotary body at a lower portion of the case. A guide groove whose distance from the center of rotation of the rotary body is continuously changed is formed in a bottom surface of the rotary body. The rotary detecting means of the substrate has a sliding portion fitted to the guide groove of the rotary body to slide according to the rotation of the rotary body, and outputs a signal according to a movement location of the sliding portion.

A slider is provided with projections. Each projection is formed with tapered surfaces. A casing is provided with concave portions having the same shape as the projections. During the return of an operating body, the slider ascends while being inclined, and the slider stands upright as the tapered surface of the projection and the tapered surface of the concave portion of the casing slide on each other. Then, each projection is fitted into the corresponding concave portion, thereby positioning the slider.
