A disc player having a prepit detecting circuit which can correctly detect prepits even if phases or amplitude levels of a plurality of read signals read out from a recording disc are deviated from each other. A phase difference between a first read signal and a second read signal read out by first and second reading elements arranged in two regions divided along the direction of recording tracks of a recording disc is detected. A first phase correction read signal is obtained by adjusting the phase of the first read signal by an amount according to the phase difference. A differential value between the first phase correction read signal and the second read signal is outputted as a prepit detection signal.

A recording time point setting method and apparatus are provided. The recording time point setting method is a method of setting a recording time point for recording an information piece into one of a plurality of predetermined areas on a recording medium on the basis of a plurality of marks. The marks are pre-recorded on the recording medium at predetermined intervals. The locations of the marks correspond to the locations of the predetermined areas, respectively. The locations of the predetermined areas are predetermined on the basis of a time length of the information piece. In this method, firstly, at least one of the marks is detected. Then, an expectation signal is generated on the basis of the time length of the information piece, and then, a time point at which an output of the expectation signal is started is synchronized with a time point at which the at least one of the marks is detected. The expectation signal is a signal for determining an expectation time point that one of the marks, except for the at least one of the marks already detected, is to be detected. Next, the expectation time point determined by the expectation signal is set as the recording time point.

There is disclosed an apparatus for detecting position of a light spot, suitable for the tracking control or the track-jumping control at the time of reproducing an optical disk. This light spot position detector has a circuit configuration featured below. Namely, three light beams are used to provide three push-pull outputs from the respective light beams to apply a predetermined operation to those push-pull outputs, thereby to generate a light spot position signal permitting discrimination as to whether or not the light spot is in the on-track state. Further, by gain controlling the light spot position signal thus generated, a suitable signal is permitted to be outputted even when a signal is undesirably attenuated for any reason.

In a disc player, a CAL pattern is recorded in a disc-like optical recording medium during a recording stand-by time period, which is yielded by a difference between a data rate in inputting information to a disc player 50 and a recording rate in recording information into the optical recording medium. The CAL pattern is reproduced from the optical recording medium, the reproduced pattern is evaluated, and an irradiation intensity of a laser beam is optimized for recording information in the optical recording medium, by a laser-output controller 30.

A light spot position detector reliably effects spot-on-track detection even if the reflectivities of recording tracks and intertrack areas of an optical disk are substantially the same as each other. A tracking error signal used to control a scanning spot applied to the recording tracks on the optical disk is produced by mixing light spot position signals that are generated according to the three beam method and the push pull method from light beams reflected from light spots on the signal recording surface of the optical disk.

摘要:
A track search controller has three two-segment photodetectors, three subtracters associated respectively with the two-segment photodetectors, a processing circuit, and a servo control cirucit. Each of the photodetectors produces two output signals based on a light beam reflected from an optical disk. Each of the subtracters produces a differential output signal representing the difference between the output signals from the associated photodetector. The processing circuit generates an actuator position signal from the output signals from the subtracters. The actuator position signal contains a component indicative of a deviation of the actuator due to its vibration. The servo control circuit controls an actuator, which actuates a laser beam source, so that the actuator position signal will be of a constant value.
