An image forming apparatus includes a belt stretched across rollers and a resist rotary member that feeds out a recording medium on the belt. A correlation between a velocity of the belt and the resist rotary member is obtained. A target velocity of the belt or the resist rotary member, at which a difference between the velocity when the recording medium is in contact with both the belt and the resist rotary member and the velocity when the recording medium is not in contact with at least either the belt or the resist rotary member is minimum, is determined based on the correlation.

To compensate for the variation in the output signal from an encoder due to the variation in the thickness of an endless belt, an apparatus includes: a detector that detects a reference position on the endless belt; a correction-value calculating unit that calculates a correction value for each position on the endless belt based on the thickness; and a target-value calculating unit that adjusts a target value for controlling a driving motor based on the correction value corresponding to a distance from the reference position to the current position.

In a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, an insulating film having pores is formed on a substrate, and an opening is formed in the insulating film. Thereafter, a material gas supplying Si or C is supplied to the insulating film. Thereby, deficient elements, such as Si or C, are supplied to the insulating film. Thereafter, the opening, including a barrier metal, is filled with a conductive member to form a wiring structure.

A semiconductor device having good electrical properties, and a method of manufacturing this semiconductor device by forming an insulation layer on a first wiring layer and then, simultaneously forming in this insulation layer a second wiring layer and a contact layer for connecting the first wiring layer and the second wiring layer. A positive resist layer having an opening over an area where a through-hole is to be formed is first formed on the insulation layer. A negative resist layer having an opening over an area where a wiring trench is to be formed is then formed on the positive resist layer. The insulation layer, positive resist layer, and negative resist layer are then simultaneously etched to form a wiring trench and through-hole that are automatically aligned with each other. The wiring trench and through-hole are then filled with a conductive material to form a second wiring layer and contact layer.

The feature of the present invention lies in the point that a flying height variation of a head is checked by use of a read signal sent from the head so as to easily detect the flying height out of an allowable range, so that the generation of an abnormal data writing/reading operation is prevented in advance with result that data writing/reading operation can be surely realized in an interior of a HDD. There is provided a system in which a read signal obtained when data recorded in a disk 1 is read by a head 2 is input, and the flying height variation of the head is checked by use of a DC voltage of a gain control signal of an AGC circuit of a data reading processing circuit for executing a predetermined data reading processing. A CPU 11 converts a DC voltage level of the gain control signal of the AGC circuit to digital data by an A/D converter so as to check the flying height variation of the head. The CPU 11 compares the level value of the input gain control signal with threshold data DT stored in a memory. When the compared value exceeds the allowable range, the CPU 11 outputs a detection signal FS of the flying height variation for designating that an amount of the flying height of the head is abnormally varied.

摘要:
The invention provides a method for effectively removing the cause of a thermal asperity (TA) phenomenon occurring at an MR head incorporated in a disk storage system. If a read error occurs in data read by the MR head, a CPU executes a usual read retry operation. If the read error is not removed by the usual read retry operation, the CPU presumes that the read error is caused by the thermal asperity phenomenon occurring at the MR head. Then, the CPU controls the MR head to move to a CSS zone on the disk, thereby executing a TA removal operation so as to remove a fine particle such as dust attached to the MR head. In the TA removal operation, the rotational speed of the disk is reduced so that the MR head can be brought into contact with the disk in the CSS zone.
摘要:
To prevent a decrease in the window margin due to reproduced signals having asymmetrical waveforms in a magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus, data in which peak shifts occur are recorded in the SYNC regions in the data format for the recording medium in accordance with the recording method. In data read operation, by detecting the data recorded in the SYNC regions, the center of the data window signal is shifted by a desired peak shift amount.

A magnetic recording/reproducing apparatus includes a control section, a recording section and a medium access section having a head. The control section sets a write mode in response to an input write access command, and outputs write data and density indication data to the recording section. In the write mode, the recording section generates dummy data in accordance with the density indication data and modulates a write current in accordance with the write data and the dummy data subsequent to the write data. The modulated write current is supplied to the medium access section. A value of the write current is determined in accordance with the density indication data, and the write current decays with a time constant while the write current is modulated in accordance with the dummy data. The medium access section write-accesses a medium in accordance with the modulated write current in the write mode.
