    Abstract: The invention provides an optical disk drive. In one embodiment, the optical disk drive comprises a feeding device, a power driver, and a controller. The feeding device comprises a spherical aberration (SA) lens and a stepping motor, wherein the SA lens corrects spherical aberration of a light beam emitted by a pickup head, and the stepping motor moves the SA lens according to a plurality of control signals. The power driver generates the control signals to drive the stepping motor to move the SA lens. The controller directs the power driver to drive the stepping motor to move the SA lens with only stable steps when the SA lens is required to move, so that the stepping motor is in a stable state without inducing step errors after the stepping motor rotates with the stable steps.
