Theory of Device Operation
4.7 Servo Control
The actuator motor and the spindle motor are submitted to servo control. The
actuator motor is controlled for moving and positioning the head to the track
containing the desired data. To turn the disk at a constant velocity, the actuator
motor is controlled according to the servo data that is written on the data side
beforehand.

(1) Microprocessor unit (MPU)
The MPU uses DSP and executes startup of the spindle motor, movement to the
reference cylinder, seek to the specified cylinder, and calibration operations.
Main internal operation of the MPU are shown below.
