Optical disk recording and reproducing apparatus.

摘要

The optical disk recording and reproducing apparatus includes (1) an optical head, (2) a linear motor for moving the optical head in a radial direction of an optical disk (3) a position detection sensor for detecting a position of the optical head, (4) a speed detector for detecting a moving speed of the optical head, (5) a CPU for calculating an access distance, based on the present position of the optical head and a designated track, in accordance with an output of the position detection sensor, (6) a ROM for generating a table value for an adjustable target speed of the optical head in accordance with the distance, (7) a speed offset memory for storing a speed offset value for adjusting an error in the access distance, (8) a coarse access control device for controlling the linear motor to move the optical head, based on an error signal obtained from a difference between the adjustable target speed and an actual speed of the optical head detected by the speed detector, before the optical head reaches a switching point located just before the designated track in a coarse access, the adjustable target speed being obtained by adding or subtracting the speed offset value stored in the speed offset memory to or from the table value generated by the ROM, and for setting the adjustable target speed to "0", after the optical head passes the switching point, and (9) a fine access control device for judging whether the optical head is positioned on the designated track upon completion of the coarse access, and for performing a fine access, controlling the linear motor to move the optical head to a vicinity of the designated track, when the optical head is not positioned on the designated track. With such an arrangement, the accuracy of the coarse access can be improved and time required for the coarse access can be reduced. Another optical disk recording and reproducing device further includes a speed offset value correcting device for correcting the speed offset value released in accordance with an access error in the coarse access when a distance between a position of the optical head and the designated track is more than a reference value upon completion of the coarse access. The speed offset value is accordingly corrected by a learning control, and this further improves the accuracy of the coarse access, saving the overall access time.
