摘要:
A hard disk has a servo loop and a rotating storage medium. The rotating storage medium has one or more significant flutter modes at frequencies below a zero cross frequency of a rejection transfer function of the servo loop. The effect of the forgoing is to allow the servo loop to better track a rotating medium that is subject to significant flutter. Peak filters with frequency bands that substantially overlap frequency bands of the significant flutter modes can also be added to the servo loop to further improve tracking. Multiple narrow band filters with frequency bands overlap can be used to cover the spectrum of a single flutter mode. Two lag-lead filters, the frequency responses of which overlap can be used to cover two adjacent significant flutter modes. At frequencies intermediate to the two adjacent flutter, modes, the lead caused by one filter, will be cancelled by the lag caused by the second.

A microelectronic device is made of a semiconductor substrate, a heat generating component in a layer thereof, and a body within the remaining semiconductor substrate. The body is made of materials which have a high thermal inertia and/or thermal conductivity. When high thermal conductivity materials are used, the body acts to transfer the heat away from the substrate to a heat sink.

In order to handle platter flutter in a hard disk operated at high speed (e.g. 10,000 RPM) and maintain tracking of read/write head, peak filters are added to a head tracking servo feedback loop. In some embodiments, several lag-lead type peak filters centered at a plurality of flutter mode frequencies are provided to process a Position Error Signal (PES) read from the read/write head. The several filter are preferably arranged in series (i.e. to operate on the PES sequentially), alternatively the filters can be arranged in parallel. Phase lags and leads caused by the several filters partially cancel at frequencies intermediate center frequencies of the several filters. According to another embodiment two or more, preferably three narrow band filters are used to cover the spectrum of each flutter mode. In a configuration mode, a spectrum of the flutter modes can be obtained and used to set the center frequencies, and bandwidths of filters used to filter out the flutter modes.

A method and apparatus, in a direct access storage device including a head positioned for interaction with a data storage medium mounted on a rotating spindle, an actuator for positioning the head, and a servo control loop for positioning the actuator. The improvement comprises: a narrow band gain enhancing filter for connection in the servo control loop. The filter has a response frequency related to the rotational frequency of the spindle. The filter has programmable initial states. Also provided is a switch for switching in the narrow band filter as the head approaches a target position on the data storage medium. Initial states of the filter are determined and supplied to program the filter. At least one additional filter having a peak response frequency at a harmonic of the frequency of rotation of the spindle, may be provided. Initial states of the additional filters are determined and supplied to program the additional filter. The filter may include successive delay circuits for inputs to the filter, which circuits provide delayed outputs; multipliers for multiplying selected delayed outputs by a constant; and a summer for summing the delay outputs after the delayed outputs are multiplied by the multipliers. The initial states may be stored as phase, frequency and amplitude of a sine function.

A method aspect for removing heat from a data center may use liquid coolant cooled without vapor compression refrigeration on a liquid cooled information technology equipment rack. The method may also include regulating liquid coolant flow to the data center through a range of liquid coolant flow values with a controller-apparatus based upon information technology equipment temperature threshold of the data center.
