  • Page 43: Disks

    5.2.1 Disks Each DE contains disks whose external diameter is 95 millimeters and internal diameter is 25 millimeters. The DE for the MAA3182FC, MAB3091FC, MAC3091FC, MAB3045FC and MAC3045FC contains 10, 5, 5, 3 and 3 disks respectively. Each time disk rotation stops, the read-write heads touch the disk surfaces. Disk surfaces withstand at least 10,000 head touch operations at disk rotation start and stop.
  • Page 44: Spindle Mechanism

    5.2.3 Spindle mechanism The spindle mechanism consists of a disk stack assembly and a spindle motor. The disk stack assembly is directly driven by the direct drive type DC spindle motor. The rotational frequency of this spindle motor is 7,200 rpm or 10,033 rpm. A counterelectromotive force is generated by the drive current in the spindle motor coil.
  • Page 45 The DSP accurately controls traffic positioning of each head using servo information on the data surface. Spindle motor drive circuit The spindle motor drive circuit drives the spindle motor. A drive current in the motor coil generates a counter emf. The frequency of the counter emf is compared, by the DSP, with a reference frequency derived by dividing the crystal oscillator frequency.

  • Page 48: Factory-Calibration

    Factory-Calibration Factory calibration is intended to correct errors in the mechanisms and circuits and maintain stable seek, read or write operation. External force adjustment Even if the actuator stops at a fixed position, disturbing forces such as an FPC force and air movement caused by disk rotation are exerted.

    5.6.2 Write circuit The write data is converted into the NRZ data (WDT), and is sent, together with the Write clock (WCLK) signal, to the write circuit. The NRZ data is converted into 8/9 RLL code by the encoder circuit, and is written to the disk. 8/9 RLL encoder This disk drive uses the 8/9 RLL recording method.

  • Page 52: Read Circuit

    5.6.3 Read circuit The data output from the head IC is converted to a fixed level. The acquired data is then sent to the sample and hold circuit through the electrical filter circuit. The sample and hold circuit samples data, then the viterbi detection circuit converts the data into a Logic signal (RD). The VFO circuit generates a clock signal synchronized with RD.
  • Page 53: Configuration Diagram And Frequency Characteristics Of Electrical Filter Circuit

    8/9 RLL decoding circuit The 8/9 RLL decoding circuit decodes the viterbi detection circuit output signal. This decoding circuit reverse converts (scrambles) the pseudorandom pattern (created at write) into NRZ data. The NRZ data is then fed to the upper-level circuit. Sense current setup circuit This disk drive uses MR heads, so the current applied to the heads is controlled by a digital-to- analog converter.

This recording method is different from the conventional recording method in which the write frequency is fixed. With this new recording method, cylinders are grouped into several zones depending on the drive type.

    Servo Control The servomechanism is controlled using a digital servo technique by the firmware in the digital signal processor (DSP). DPS carries out VCM control. Control of the voice coil motor consists of track-following operation control and seek operation control. Track-following operation is controlled to center the data-head-mounted actuator over the target cylinder for read/write operation.

    5.7.3 Data-side servo data format To detect an offset of the data surface against to the servo surface, a servo frame is embedded between the data area on each data surface. The servo demodulator performs the offtrack compensation by demodulating the servo signal on both servo surface and data surface. There are 31 servo frames in one revolution on the data surface.
  • Page 61: Spindle Motor Control

    5.7.4 Spindle motor control The SCSI control MDU controls the senseless 3-phase spindle motor. It carries out start / normal rotation control and spindle synch control in accordance with commands from the SCSI unit. Activation The SCSI control MPU carries out control of the spindle motor from the stopped condition to normal rotation by the following sequence.
  • Page 62: Voice Coil Motor Control

    3) Coarse control shortens the time from the start of spindle synchronization control when synchronization is established. The MPU checks the phase difference between the reference signal and index signal. If this phase difference is not within the specified range, the DSP increase the spindle angular frequency to within the range for normal read/write operation.
