    摘要: A light spot position detector reliably effects spot-on-track detection even if the reflectivities of recording tracks and intertrack areas of an optical disk are substantially the same as each other. A tracking error signal used to control a scanning spot applied to the recording tracks on the optical disk is produced by mixing light spot position signals that are generated according to the three beam method and the push pull method from light beams reflected from light spots on the signal recording surface of the optical disk.

    摘要: A track search controller has three two-segment photodetectors, three subtracters associated respectively with the two-segment photodetectors, a processing circuit, and a servo control cirucit. Each of the photodetectors produces two output signals based on a light beam reflected from an optical disk. Each of the subtracters produces a differential output signal representing the difference between the output signals from the associated photodetector. The processing circuit generates an actuator position signal from the output signals from the subtracters. The actuator position signal contains a component indicative of a deviation of the actuator due to its vibration. The servo control circuit controls an actuator, which actuates a laser beam source, so that the actuator position signal will be of a constant value.

    摘要: There is disclosed an apparatus for detecting position of a light spot, suitable for the tracking control or the track-jumping control at the time of reproducing an optical disk. This light spot position detector has a circuit configuration featured below. Namely, three light beams are used to provide three push-pull outputs from the respective light beams to apply a predetermined operation to those push-pull outputs, thereby to generate a light spot position signal permitting discrimination as to whether or not the light spot is in the on-track state. Further, by gain controlling the light spot position signal thus generated, a suitable signal is permitted to be outputted even when a signal is undesirably attenuated for any reason.
