The invention provides an apparatus for controlling servo signal gains of an optical disc drive. The apparatus adjusts the gains of a plurality of servo signals controlling a servo system of the optical disc drive according to a closed-loop mode or a state-reloading mode whenever the optical disk drive encounters an operating state transition. In closed-loop mode, at least one AGC loop of the apparatus compensates the gains of the servo signals with a selectable bandwidth during a specific period after the operating state transition to accelerate the convergence of the servo signals. In state-reloading mode, at least one AGC loop of the apparatus reloads the previously saved convergence values or pre-determined values as the initial values according to the current operating state immediately after the operating state transition to accelerate the convergence of the servo signals.

An optical storage device and a blank detection method thereof are disclosed. An RF signal is obtained from an optical disc. A various gain amplifier amplifies the RF signal based on a control signal. An analog to digital converter samples the amplified RF signal to obtain a data signal. An auto gain controller updates the control signal based on amplitude of the data signal. A blank detector detects blankness of the data signal based on a threshold. The threshold is provided by a threshold generator based on the control signal. If the amplitude of the data signal does not exceed the threshold, the blank detector sends a hold signal to suspend update of the control signal.
