A circuit in an optical read/write device for protecting synchronizing patterns is proposed. The protection circuit utilizes a clock with constant frequency as a reference clock. The circuit for protecting synchronizing patterns of this present invention includes a SYNC detector, a frame period counter, a valid-frame-period judgment unit, a frame period memory, a window generator, a real SYNC judgment unit, a SYNC lock judgment unit, and a SYNC signal generator. The circuit counts the pulse number of a reference clock with constant frequency for each frame to get a constant frame period. Then, the circuit can correctly interpolate the lost frame SYNC signal immediately by counting the reference clock, when the disk is defected.
