Microprocessor unit (MPU)
The MPU includes DSP unit, etc., and the MPU starts the spindle motor, moves the heads to
the reference cylinders, seeks the specified cylinder, and executes calibration according to the
internal operations of the MPU.
The major internal operations are listed below.
a. Spindle motor start
Starts the spindle motor and accelerates it to normal speed when power is applied.
b. Move head to reference cylinder
Drives the VCM to position the head at the any cylinder in the data area. The logical
initial cylinder is at the outermost circumference (cylinder 0).
