Self-adaptive seeking profile for resonance actuator

摘要

A disc drive includes a base and a disc rotatably attached to the base. The disc drive also includes an actuator assembly rotatably attached to said base and a device for moving the actuator assembly. The actuator assembly includes a transducer head in a transducing relationship with respect to the disc. The disc drive includes a disc drive controller for controlling movement of the actuator during track follow and track seek operations. The disc drive controller monitors the actuator during seek operations. The disc drive controller further computes a maximum average settle time from the monitored settle times. The dis drive controller further compares the maximum average settle time to a predetermined threshold value, and issues a command signal to adjust seek profile parameters of the disc drive to eliminate resonance in the actuator arm during a seek operation.
