(1) Write/read recovery
This area is used to absorb the write/read transient and to stabilize the AGC.
(2) Servo mark (ASM, SSM)
This area generates a timing for demodulating the gray code and position-demodulating Pos A to D
by detecting the servo mark.
(3) Preamble
This area is used to synchronize with the PLL, which is used to search the SSM by detecting the
ASM.
(4) Gray code (including index bit) (SCD)
This area is used as cylinder address. The data in this area is converted into the binary data by the
gray code demodulation circuit.
(5) Pos A, Pos B, Pos C, Pos D
This area is used as position signals between tracks, and the device control at on-track so that Pos
A level equals to Pos B level.
(6) PAD
This area is used as a gap between servo and data.
4.7.4 Actuator motor control
The voice coil motor (VCM) is controlled by feeding back the servo data recorded on the data
surface. The MPU fetches the position sense data on the servo frame at a constant interval of
sampling time, executes calculation, and updates the VCM drive current.
The servo control of the actuator includes the operation to move the head to the reference cylinder,
the seek operation to move the head to the target cylinder to read or write data, and the track-
following operation to position the head onto the target track.
(1) Operation to move the head to the reference cylinder
The MPU moves the head to the reference cylinder when the power is turned. The reference
cylinder is in the data area.
When power is applied the heads are moved from the inner circumference shunt zone to the normal
servo data zone in the following sequence:
a) Micro current is fed to the VCM to press the head against the inner circumference.
