SYSTEM
Controls for tape speed, cylinder rotary frequency and tracking are very important since recording pattern
for DAT employs High-density recording system (114 MBPI*) in which the track-pitch is 13.591pm.
Especially, the tracking is controlled by.a servo system called ATF (Automatic Tracking Finding).
The servo system is PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) which is controlled by digital signals.
