Optical card analyzing apparatus

摘要

There is provided an optical card information recording/playing back apparatus comprising: an optical system for irradiating a light beam for reproducing recorded information onto information recording tracks of the optical card on which pit trains indicative of recording information are formed; a photo detector for receiving the reflected light from the optical card and outputting a photo sensing signal; a pit correspondence signal producing circuit for detecting a peak of the photo sensing signal and producing a pit correspondence signal which changes in correspondence to a pit position on the basis of the result of the peak detection; a frequency/voltage converter for converting a frequency of the pit correspondence signal to a voltage; and a discrimination signal producing circuit for comparing a voltage output of the frequency/voltage converter with a reference value and producing an information presence/absence discrimination signal.
