An optical disc controller of the present invention servo-controls an optical disc device which comprises a disc motor rotating an optical disc and an optical head emitting a light beam for recording data on the optical disc and/or reproducing data from the optical disc. The optical disc controller comprises: a variable clock output section for outputting a plurality of clock signals of different frequencies, and a control section which receives from the optical head a signal indicating a deviation from a predetermined target value to servo-control the light beam of the optical disc device and performs an operation according to the signal indicating the deviation so as to obtain and output a signal indicating a control amount. The variable clock output section changes a frequency of the clock signal according to a recording speed and/or a reproducing speed when the optical disc device performs recording and/or reproduction, and the control section performs an operation to be performed in synchronization with the clock signal of the variable clock output section.
