A method and apparatus for controlling a motor in a disc drive by modulating the commutation angle

摘要

A motor control circuit controls a motor in a disc drive is provided. The motor control circuit includes a commutation circuit which provides commutation signals to the motor to commutate the motor at a commutation frequency. A frequency modulation circuit is operably coupled to the commutation circuit. The frequency modulation circuit provides a modulation signal which frequency modulates the commutation frequency according to a predetermined pattern.
