OPTICAL DISK IDENTIFYING DEVICE, OPTICAL DISK IDENTIFYING METHOD, OPTICAL DISK RECORDER, AND OPTICAL DISK REPRODUCING DEVICE
摘要
<p>A tracking error signal calculator (221) detects a tracking error signal of a light beam for a mark recorded on a wobble groove from the light reflected from the wobble groove on which the light beam is focused. A pull-in signal calculator (225) detects a total light amount signal of the mark recorded on the wobble groove from the reflected light. A D flip-flop identifying circuit (224) compares the phase of a binary signal of the tracking error signal TE detected by the tracking error signal calculator with that of a binary signal of the total light amount signal PI detected by a pull-in signal calculator so as to identify the type of the optical disk even if the outline and optical system are the same and the recording system of UTOC is different.</p>
