A servo system for writing servo information on a recording medium of a hard disk drive and for determining head position based on the servo information with a tracking accuracy, the servo system including a first magnetic head and a servo writer. The servo writer is configured to write the servo information on the recording medium by forming, using the first magnetic head, a first servo pattern comprising a servo burst pattern on a segment of a first track of a first layer of the recording medium; and by forming a second servo pattern comprising addressing information on a segment of a second track of a second layer of the recording medium. The second track is arranged half a width of the first track from the first track to increase the tracking accuracy of the servo system.

Various embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for data processing. For example, some embodiments of the present invention provide clock generation systems that include: a first clock multiplier circuit, a second clock multiplier circuit, a modulus accumulator circuit, and a data clock phase control circuit. The first clock multiplier circuit is operable to multiply a reference clock by a first multiplier to yield a first domain clock, and the second clock multiplier circuit is operable to multiply the reference clock by a second multiplier to yield a second domain clock. The modulus accumulator circuit is operable to yield a value indicating a fractional amount of the second domain clock that an edge of the second domain clock is offset from a trigger signal. The data clock phase control circuit is operable to phase shift the second domain clock by a phase amount corresponding to the fractional amount.

A bit-patterned magnetic media (BPM) includes with respect to each data track a first sub-track and a second sub-track, each sub-track comprised of a plurality of bit-islands. A transducer head placed over a data track generates a readback signal. Channel response circuitry demodulates the readback signal and detects fine positioning information based on a comparison of a readback signal generated in response to the first sub-track and a readback signal generated in response to the second sub-track.

An apparatus includes a disk arrangement, a first signal processing path configured to output data from the disk arrangement according to a first protocol, a second signal processing path configured to output data from the disk arrangement according to a second protocol, and an interface including a set of electrical conductors and a mode control unit. The mode control unit is configured to output data from the first signal processing path on the set of electrical conductors according to the first protocol and to output data from the second signal processing path on the set of electrical conductors according to the second protocol according to a control signal received by the mode control unit. The second protocol is different from the first protocol.

According to one embodiment, a storage device includes a target track write module and a test pattern read module. The target track write module performs a write operation on a target track, which is a predetermined track intersecting a test pattern, on a storage medium to which the test pattern is written. The test pattern intersects a plurality of tracks arranged at regular intervals and is continuously arranged over the tracks. The test pattern read module reads the test pattern overwritten by the target track write module.

A magnetic storage control apparatus for controlling a magnetic storage apparatus that uses a recording medium having a plurality of reference signals on its track and having a data area between the reference signals. The apparatus includes: a measurement section that reproduces the reference signal in a predetermined track of the recording medium and measures, for each data area, the time for a head to scan the data area to obtain a measurement value; a calculation section that calculates a setting value concerning the frequency of a recording clock used in data recording based on the measurement values of a plurality of data areas obtained by the measurement section; and a generation section that generates the recording clock based on the measurement values obtained by the measurement section and setting value calculated by the calculation section.
摘要:
An electron beam lithographic method and system for forming a micro-pattern, including servo patterns each of which comprises a plurality of recessed servo elements in a track and groove patterns each of which comprises an inter-track groove extending along the track and to be formed on a discrete track medium, on the a resist coated disc substrate by scanning the resist-coated surface with an electron beam during rotation of the disc substrate. A sequential process of the electron beam lithography comprises the steps of forming the servo elements as an latent image in the resist-coated surface with an electron beam having an irradiation spot diameter smaller than a width of the servo element during rotation of the disc substrate and, subsequently, forming the inter-track grooves in a latent image in the resist-coated surface by intermittently scanning the resist-coated surface in a direction perpendicular to a track direction at regular intervals during rotation of the disc substrate so as thereby to form a continuous row of groove elements into which the inter-track groove is divided.
