摘要:
An optical disc recording and playing apparatus records a video format signal on an optical disc on which an address signal is recorded in the form of prepits, while controlling the rotation of the optical disc on the basis of a phase difference between a synchronizing signal in the video format signal to be recorded and the address signal read-out from the optical disc, and reproduces the recorded video format signal. During the playing operation the apparatus generates a synchronizing signal which is synchronized with the reproduced video format signal and the generated synchronizing signal is outputted in place of the video format signal for the period of sections of the video format signal corresponding to the address signal. With this feature, generation of disturbances in the reproduced picture is surely prevented.

An automatic disc player including a housing, disc carrier means to convey a disc between predetermined playback position and a predetermined withdrawal position ready to be withdrawn out of the housing upon termination of plaback operation, signal generating means for producing control signals to be predominant over various steps of the playback operation, and an electric control circuit responsive to the control signals to control the various steps of the playback operation, the signal generating means comprising position detecting means responsive to movement of the disc to the withdrawal position and operative to produce a signal when the disc being moved away from the playback position reaches the withdrawal position, and playback re-start switch means which is operative to produce a signal in response to slight movement of the disc from the withdrawal position toward the playback position, the control signals to be produced by the signal generating means including signals to control the start of playback operation. The position detecting means and the playback re-start switch means are connected in series with between ground and the control circuit, and the signals to control the start of playback operation include the signal from the playback re-start switch means.

An actuator drive circuit for driving a load using a single power supply. The current drive is not dependent on load impedance characteristics. Drive means provides a voltage across the first terminal and the second terminal during at input signal positive phase, and reverse voltage across the first terminal and the second terminal during a negative phase. A current detection resistor is connected in series with the load, and the voltage across the resistor is input to a differential amplifier. The amplifier output provides feedback to the drive means.

A data reading device for reading out data modulated according to a system wherein the time ratio of low to high level signals is substantially unity employs a time ratio detector and an intermediate level detector. A comparator compares the reproduced output level with a synthesized signal which may represent a combination of the outputs of the time ratio detector and the intermediate level detector.

A transmitting method of digital data whereby information data can be reproduced at a high precision. In order to retain digital data in sectors comprising a plurality of sync frames and sequentially transmit, the sync frame is comprised of the sync signal and the run length limited code which satisfies the limitations of the minimum run length and the maximum run length, and the sync signal includes the sync pattern constituted by a bit pattern of a run length that is longer than the maximum run length by only 3T and addition bit patterns which are arranged before and after the bit pattern and each of which has a run length that is longer than the minimum run length. The sync signal includes a specific code which indicates a position in the sector and which enables the DC control to be performed.

An optical recording medium in which tracks are constructed by a plurality of combination tracks and-the distance between tracks is narrowed so that data is recorded at a high density, and a playing apparatus for such a medium. The recording medium has a plurality of combination tracks whose track pitch is smaller than a spot diameter of a reading beam of an optical pickup. A track gap which is larger than an optical cut-off wavelength of the optical pickup and is larger than the track pitch is provided for each combination track. The playing apparatus includes a reading which generates beam spots which are equal in number to the tracks constructing the combination track of the recording medium, and a tracking error detecting section for detecting a level difference between two reading signals obtained from tracks at both inner and outer peripheries of the combination track by the reading means, thereby detecting a tracking error.

In a disk recording/reproducing apparatus, phase control of a spindle servo system is made to be smaller than a range of time base control of a time base servo system, so as to obtain spindle servo phase jitter equivalent to that obtained using a horizontal synchronizing signal, which may not be available under all circumstances. Preferably, the range of phase control is no more than 1/10 of the range of variation of a variable delay line used to provide a time base reference signal.

Identification of a tracking servo system type with which a recording disc is to be used. Data is provided to inform a recording/reproducing apparatus that user data is recorded for reproduction by either a sample servo system or a continuous reproduction servo system. Identification data is recorded in a constant angular velocity (CAV) format, in which the data, recorded a plurality of times in a predetermined region of the disc, is located in the same circumferential but a different radial location on the disc. The predetermined region may be in an inner or outer portion of the disc, and has a width greater than the eccentricity of the disc.
