    摘要: A reproduced signal processing circuit includes a variable gain amplifier to which a signal read from a medium by a reproducing head is inputted; an analog-to-digital converter for converting a signal outputted from the variable gain amplifier into a digital signal; and a variable frequency oscillator for supplying an operation clock signal to the analog-to-digital converter. A reproduced signal processing method includes the steps of operating a first control loop for controlling the variable gain amplifier; operating at least either one of a second control loop and a third control loop, the second control loop controlling the variable frequency oscillator, the third control loop controlling the variable frequency oscillator; filtering by analog filter means the read signal inputted to the variable gain amplifier; operating at least one of first, second, and third noise detecting operations, the first noise detecting operation detecting presence or absence of a noise by comparing an amplitude of the output signal from the variable gain amplifier with a predetermined threshold value, the second noise detecting operation detecting a noise during an operation period of the second control loop, the third noise detecting operation detecting a noise during an operation period of the third control loop; and changing the range of cutoff frequency of the analog filter means in accordance with a result from at least one of the first, second, and third noise detecting operations, thereby controlling at least one of the first, second, and third control loops.

    摘要: Embodiments of the invention increase the convenience of a magnetic disk drive for portable use by shortening a period of time required to record a large amount of data, and by increasing the reproduction time, in the magnetic disk drive. In one embodiment, an area between servo data parts is interpolated by servo data parts, each of which stores a burst signal, so that the allocation density of a burst signal is made k times. At the time of write operation in which data is written, only the servo data parts are made use of to perform the servo control while a disk is driven at high rotational speed so as to reduce the recording time. At the time of read operation in which data is reproduced, the servo data parts are made use of to ensure the required precision of the servo control at low rotational speed that is 1/k of the rotational speed at the time of write operation. The reproduction at low rotational speed enables the reduction in power consumption.
