Disc player having a prepit detecting circuit

摘要

A disc player having a prepit detecting circuit which can correctly detect prepits even if phases or amplitude levels of a plurality of read signals read out from a recording disc are deviated from each other. A phase difference between a first read signal and a second read signal read out by first and second reading elements arranged in two regions divided along the direction of recording tracks of a recording disc is detected. A first phase correction read signal is obtained by adjusting the phase of the first read signal by an amount according to the phase difference. A differential value between the first phase correction read signal and the second read signal is outputted as a prepit detection signal.
