Frequency modulation pattern for disk drive assemblies

摘要

The invention relates to control systems for data storage media. More particularly, the invention relates to a system, method and apparatus for forming various frequency modulation patterns on storage media for providing position error signals. The invention also relates to forming various frequency modulation patterns on storage media for providing position error signals having a continuously varying frequency that is proportional to the position of a read/write transducer head within a track defined on a storage medium. The invention also relates to providing a demodulated signal that is proportional to a continuously varying position error signal frequency and thus to the position of the read/write head within a track defined on a storage medium.
