A clock of a predetermined frequency is generated on a basis of clock information contained in a read signal. Sample values obtained by sampling the read signal in response to the clock are sequentially converted into digital data, and the thus obtained digital data are held in a first data holding means and then second data holding means in response to the clock for a time corresponding to the clock. The digital data and the output data from the second data holding means are added, and the addition output bits are multiplied by a predetermined constant by inserting a selected number of zero bits as upper significant bits, and shifting the addition output bits by the selected number of zero bits. Data corresponding to the difference between the multiplied output and the output of the first data holding means is obtained, and the thus obtained difference output is demodulated in response to the clock.

In a system for optically reading out information recorded on a recording medium, the focus servo device includes an object lens supported by a resilient support member and a focus servo loop. The focus loop includes a driving current generating means for generating a driving current of a cylindrical coil of a focus actuator connected to the object lens in accordance with an output signal of a pickup means which includes the object lens. The improvement is that the dc loop gain of the focus servo loop is substantially raised to infinity, so as to reduce the magnitude of the focus error signal which is required to produce the driving current of the cylindrical lens for moving the object lens against the resilient force of the support member. Further, the focus servo device is characterized by a phase retarding circuit for reducing the amount of the phase rotation at the higher frequency range so as to assure the stability of the operation of the focus servo loop.

A data reading device for reading out data modulated according to a system wherein the time ratio of low to high level signals is substantially unity employs a time ratio detector and an intermediate level detector. A comparator compares the reproduced output level with a synthesized signal which may represent a combination of the outputs of the time ratio detector and the intermediate level detector.

A disc drive servo system for controlling the drive of a disc carrying a binary digital signal wherein the digital signal includes (i) an information signal portion in which the position of an inversion of the digital signal is determined in accordance with an analog information signal and (ii) synchronizing signal portions which include two successive maximum periods of the inversion. The system comprises a timer means for initialing a timing operation upon receipt of an inversion signal and for producing an output signal when no inversion occurs during a time period which is twice as long as the maximum period of the inversion, thereby reproducing a synchronizing signal and ensuring precise control of the disc drive speed even during periods in which the production of a clock signal is not possible.

A read-out information signal processing circuit having a switching device for relaying the read-out information signal read-out from a recording medium in an optical recording and reproducing system. The read-out information signal relayed by the switching device is supplied to an A/D converting circuit through DC interrupt means. The switching device is turned off during the recording period. Thus, the variations of DC level supplied to the A/D converting circuit at the transient time from a recording mode to a reproducing mode can be prevented and the dynamic range of A/D converting circuit can be effectively used.
摘要:
A circuit for detecting a proper locked state between the output of a phase-locked loop clock generating circuit and a timing component of a received composite signal containing both digital information and the timing component. An internal synchronization pulse signal is produced directly in response to the output of the phase-locked loop, and a frame synchronization sequence detection pulse signal is produced by detecting the occurrence of frame synchronization sequences in the composite signal. The internal synchronization pulse signal and the frame synchronization sequence detection pulse signal are compared to determine whether or not they are in time coincidence. If they are not, corresponding to an improperly locked state, a synchronization hunting controller controls the internal synchronization pulse generator to shift the phase of the internal synchronization pulse signal until time coincidence occurs. The output of the synchronization hunting controller is also used a lock detection signal. A frame synchronization signal is produced by delaying the output of the internal synchronization pulse generator.
