DISK DEVICE

摘要

Clock marks for extracting clock components are made in advance at regular intervals along the track of a discoid recording medium, and clock components are extracted by detecting these clock marks at the time of rotating the discoid recording medium. Since the clock components are extracted from the definitely and periodically arranged clock marks in such a way, and interpolating clocks in sections between clock marks are generated based on the extracted clock components, highly accurate clocks can be obtained as compared with the case where clocks are extracted from reproduced codes. Therefore, the capacity of the discoid recording medium can be remarkably increased.
