SPIN MOTOR CONTROL IN AN OPTICAL DRIVE

摘要

A system and method for controlling operation of a motor system that addresses the design challenges for the small form factor optical disk system. The control system can include a lookup table module providing a reference period corresponding to each of a physical sector address on an optical medium. The system can further include a drive module configured to sense a BEMF zero crossing occurring in a spin motor. A measurement of two of the BEMF zero crossings can be used to calculate a spin period measurement. The reference period can be compared to the spin period measurement to provide a period error value. The system also includes a controller module for providing a control command to drive the spin motor in response to the period error value.
