An optical disk device for writing data onto an optical disk having a wobble track comprises an optical pickup for irradiating laser light of a writing power and laser light of a replaying power onto an optical disk and for converting return light from the optical disk into an electrical signal, a filter for extracting a wobble component contained in the return light signal when the laser of a writing power is irradiated, a processor for detecting the direction of track deviation based on the phase of the wobble component, and an actuator for driving the optical pickup in the width direction of the track based on the direction of the track deviation in order to control the tracking. Because the phase of the wobble component differs for a case when a light spot is deviated radially inward and for a case when a light spot is deviated radially outward, the direction of the track deviation can be detected based on the phase of the wobble component and the tracking can be controlled during data writing.

A three-phase motor having three Hall-effect devices for production of as many rotor position signals for use in excitation control of its windings, the signals being indicative of the angular position of the motor rotor with respect to the stator and having phase differences of 120 degrees. A motor speed control system is disclosed which utilizes the rotor position signals for detection of the actual running speed of the motor. Included are differentiating circuits connected one to each Hall-effect device for producing outputs in prescribed phase relationship with the rotor position signals. Connected to the differentiating circuits, switching transistors are controlled by binary switch control signals derived from the rotor position signals, passing the positive half-waves, or approximately positive half-waves, of the differentiating circuit outputs. The thus-obtained half-waves are then added together into a motor speed signal representative of the actual running speed of the motor. This signal is subsequently compared with a target speed signal indicative of a desired running speed of the motor, and the difference, if any, therebetween is fed as a speed control signal into a motor excitation circuit, which responds to both the rotor position signals and the speed control signal for exciting the motor windings for rotation at the desired speed.

CD-ROMS of poor quality, such as those having eccentric center holes or uneven weight distributions circumferentially, tend to overload b tracking and focusing servos and to invite read errors and retries. Each CD-ROM on being loaded into a CD-ROM drive is therefore checked as to its quality preparatory to reading. The disk is first rotated at eight times the standard audio CD speed, with both tracking and focusing servo gains set at matching values. If then at least either servo malfunctions, the disk is of poor quality, fit for reading at four or two times the standard audio CD speed. If both servos function normally, on the other hand, then the disk quality is rechecked at the same speed as before but with the servo gains lowered six decibels. A malfunctioning of at least either servo at this time indicates that the disk is of intermediate quality, to be read at eight times the standard audio CD speed. On the other hand, if both servos still function normally, the disk Is of good quality, suitable for reading at 12 times the standard audio CD speed.

A reproducing rate control apparatus for an optical disk includes a synchronizing clock generating unit which generates a synchronizing clock pulse with a phase locked to a phase of a digital reproduction signal. A signal processing unit generates a demodulated data signal from the digital reproduction signal in accordance with the synchronizing clock pulse, wherein the demodulated data signal is written to a memory in accordance with the synchronizing clock pulse, the demodulated data signal is read from the memory in accordance with a read reference clock pulse, and the read demodulated data signal is processed through an error correction so that a processed demodulated data signal is output. A frequency detecting unit detects whether the frequency of the synchronizing clock pulse is within a predetermined range of frequencies centered at a standard frequency. A switching unit selectively outputs one of a first read-reference clock pulse having an initial frequency and a second read-reference clock pulse having a second frequency to the signal processing unit in accordance with a result of the detection by the frequency detecting unit.
摘要:
A method and apparatus well suited for the conversion of a digitized audio signal into analog form with as wide a dynamic range as possible. A digital dither signal is added to a digital audio or like data signal to provide a digital data/dither signal. This digital data/dither signal and the digital dither signal are both converted into an analog data/dither signal and an analog dither signal respectively, and the analog dither signal is subtracted from the analog data/dither signal to obtain an analog data signal equivalent to the digital data signal. The level of the incoming digital data signal may be so high that when the digital dither signal is added thereto, the total level of the data/dither signal may exceed the capacity of the digital to analog converter in use. In that case the digital dither signal is either gated off or reduced in level, with the result that the digital to analog converter inputs either the data signal only or the data/dither signal having a total level not exceeding its capacity.

An analog dither signal is added to an analog audio or like data signal to provide an analog data/dither signal. This analog data/dither signal and the analog dither signal are both converted into a digital data/dither signal and a digital dither signal respectively, and the digital dither signal is subsequently subtracted from the digital data/dither signal to obtain a digital data signal equivalent to the analog data signal. The magnitude of the incoming analog data signal may be so high that when the analog dither signal is added thereto, the magnitude of the resulting data/dither signal may exceed the capacity of the analog to digital converter in use. In that case the analog dither signal is either gated off or reduced in magnitude, with the result that the analog to digital converter inputs either the data signal only or the data/dither signal having a magnitude not exceeding its capacity.

A data recording apparatus and a data reproducing apparatus which ensure security of a portable recording medium, such as an optical disk. The apparatus has a security mode and a normal mode as operation modes. In the security mode, a system controller of the apparatus records a security identification signal in an area other than a user data area of the optical disk. At the time of copying of the optical disk, the security identification signal disappears, and a limitation is imposed on reproduction, thereby preventing copying operation. In the security mode, the system controller records the security identification signal in the area other than the user data area of the optical disk, as well as recording user data by means of converting an address through use of a password. At the time of reproduction of data, absence or presence of the security identification signal is ascertained. When the security identification signal is present, the address is inversely converted, thereby reproducing data.
摘要:
CD-ROMS of more or less poor quality, such as those having eccentric center holes or uneven weight distributions circumferentially, tend to overload tracking and focusing servos and hence to invite read errors and retries. Each CD-ROM on being loaded into a CD-ROM drive is therefore checked as to its quality preparatory to reading. Either or both of the servos may fail to keep the read beam under control if the disk is not of good quality. Such unlocking of either or both servos is detected in terms of the number of transducer output pulses, the magnitude of transducer output voltage, or the number of read errors, during a complete disk revolution. Disk quality is first checked at four times the standard audio CD speed, then at eight times that speed, and finally at twelve times that speed. Disks of poor quality are read at two times the standard audio CD speed, those of below-average quality at four times that speed, those of above-average quality at eight times that speed, and those of good quality at twelve times that speed.
摘要:
CD-ROMS of poor quality, such as those having eccentric center holes or uneven weight distributions circumferentially, are easy to wobble or otherwise vibrate when driven at high speed, overloading tracking and focusing servos and inviting read errors and retries. Each CD-ROM on being loaded into a CD-ROM drive is therefore checked as to its quality in terms of the speed of rotation at which the disk drive motor gains a steady state on being started up at a full supply voltage. The poorer the disk quality, the lower is the steady state speed of motor rotation. A poor quality disk is read at four times the standard audio CD speed, an intermediate quality disk at eight times that speed, and a good quality disk at twelve times that speed.
