Disclosed is an optical disk apparatus having a zero-cross signal generating unit for differentiating a reproduced signal read from an optical disk and outputting a zero-cross signal when the differentiated signal crosses the zero level, and a gate signal generating unit for generating a gate signal using the reproduced signal, wherein a data pulse is outputted when the zero-cross signal is generated while the gate signal is being produced. A clamping circuit clamps the peak of a reproduced signal from an optical disk, an amplitude comparator compares the amplitude of a clamped signal, which is outputted by the clamping circuit, with a reference voltage, and an AGC control unit controls the gain of a variable-gain amplifier by generating a control voltage signal in dependence upon an amplitude difference. The gate signal generating unit generates the gate signal upon comparing the clamped signal outputted by the clamping circuit with a prescribed signal level. A data-pulse output unit outputs the data pulse when the zero-cross signal of the differentiated reproduced signal is generated while the gate signal is being produced.
