Circuit Configuration

Figure 4.2 shows the disk drive circuit configuration.

(1)

Read/write circuit

The read/write circuit consists of two LSIs; read/write preamplifier (PreAMP) and read channel
(RDC).

The PreAMP consists of the write current switch circuit, that flows the write current to the head
coil, and the voltage amplifier circuit, that amplitudes the read output from the head.

The RDC is the read demodulation circuit using the Extended Partial Response Class 4 (EPR4),
and contains the Viterbi detector, programmable filter, adaptable transversal filter, times base
generator, and data separator circuits. The RDC also contains the 48/52 group coded recording
(GCR) encoder and decoder and servo demodulation circuit.

Servo circuit

The position and speed of the voice coil motor are controlled by 2 closed-loop servo using the
servo information recorded on the data surface. The servo information is an analog signal
converted to digital for processing by a MPU and then reconverted to an analog signal for control
of the voice coil motor.

(3)

Spindle motor driver circuit

The circuit measures the interval of a PHASE signal generated by counter-electromotive voltage of
a motor, or servo mark at the MPU and controls the motor speed comparing target speed.
