Method and apparatus for controlling constant linear velocity of spindle motor using mirror signal

摘要

A method and an apparatus for precisely controlling the rotation speed of a spindle motor in an optical system according to a given condition are provided. The method involves counting in response to a clock signal widths of first and second logic states of an input signal, which varies with rotation speed of the spindle motor, when an operation control command is issued, comparing a predetermined reference value with a count value for one check cycle, and outputting the comparison result; and controlling the constant linear velocity of the spindle motor in response to the comparison result.
