摘要:
A digital magnetic reproducing apparatus comprises a reproducing head to reproduce data from a magnetic recording medium; an equalizer for shaping, by a partial response method, the waveform of the reproduced signal outputted from the reproducing head; and a decoder for decoding, by a maximum likelihood decoding method, the equalized reproduced signal obtained from the equalizer. The reproducing head employed in this apparatus is an MR (magnetoresistance effect) head which is capable of reducing the second harmonic distortion of the reproduced signal to be -25 dB or lower. Therefore the deterioration of the bit error rate that may result from the nonlinear distortion of the MR head can be further lowered within a sufficiently suppressed range in practical use.

A magnetic disk drive device that includes a disk-shaped medium with a magnetic film formed on a surface for recording or reproducing information, and a magnetic head for recording on and reproducing information from the disk-shaped medium. The disk-shaped medium has a data recording region and a control signal recording region. The data recording region is impressed to have convex recording regions for recording data and concave guard bands for separating adjacent recording regions. The control signal recording region has impressed concavities and convexities representing tracking marks (for effecting tracking control of the magnetic head), track number indicating marks and track numbers (for identifying the tracks), and clock marks dividing one circumference into equal intervals along a path of angular movement of the magnetic head. The disk-shaped medium has reduced track pitch and increased recording capacity because the concave guard bands can be very narrow without inducing crosstalk, and the tracking marks, track number indicating marks, and clock marks are impressed as concavities and convexities along the path of angular movement of the magnetic head.

A highly reliable magnetic recording and playback apparatus utilizes an independent magnetic clock pattern region and a pattern set region to provide a common timing reference between a data recording region and its adjacent tracks. In the apparatus, the pattern set region provides a reference point so that the circumferential location of the magnetic pattern region can be determined. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes elements for playback of reproduced information recorded on a magnetic disk and an arrangement which provides for the generation of a data existing point clock.

An optical disk apparatus driving an optical disk includes a tilt-angle adjusting unit configured to adjust a tilt angle indicating the tilt of an optical axis of laser light emitted from a pickup to detect an optimal tilt angle at which a traverse signal has the maximum amplitude and a storing unit configured to store information about the optimal tilt angle. When the optical disk has multiple recording layers on one side, the tilt-angle adjusting unit adjusts the tilt angle with respect to each of the multiple recording layers to detect the optimal tilt angle and the storing unit stores information about the optimal tilt angle with respect to each of the multiple recording layers. The tilt angle with respect to each of the multiple recording layers is controlled in accordance with the information about the optimal tilt angle with respect to each of the multiple recording layers.

In a phase synchronizing apparatus and a phase synchronizing method, a plurality of sine-wave signals synchronizing with the rotation of a discoid recording medium and having phases different from each other are generated, amplitudes of the plurality of sine waveforms are successively corrected in accordance with the output of phase comparator, and thereafter the correction results are supplied to a closed loop composed of phase comparison means and clock signal generator. Thereby, even if a phase fluctuation occurs in a time reference signal due to the eccentricity of a discoid recording medium, it is possible to correct a phase error generated in the output of the phase comparator correspondingly to the phase fluctuation and thus, realize a phase synchronizing apparatus and a phase synchronizing method capable of outputting a clock signal accurately following the eccentricity of a discoid recording medium.
