摘要： A data storage device includes a frame, a rotating data storage disk defining a multiplicity of concentric data tracks on the major surfaces thereof and at least one data transducer head in close proximity to a said disk surface. A bidirectionally moveable electromechanical mover includes a microstep providing stepping motor supported by the frame. The electromechanical mover is moveable between and stabilized at a position related to each data track. A head mounting structure moved by the mover moves the head across the multiplicity of concentric data tracks. A bidirectional mover driver connected to the mover moves the structure to any selected one of said concentric data tracks in accordance with externally supplied track position information and maintains the structure substantially within data track during read and/or write operations by reference to the frame. A data track stabilization means includes the stepping motor and stabilizes the structure within a range between the boundaries of each data track. A time sampled fine position closed loop servo is connected to the driver and includes a single, data masked servo sector on a data surface of said disk containing track centerline servo control data therein readable by said head, a sample and hold circuit connected to the head during passes over the servo sector for holding control data read therefrom, and a correction signal generator connected to the sample and hold circuit for generating an offset signal for application to said driver to promote and maintain track centerline alignment of the head during read and write operations.

摘要： Improvements in a system for controlling the position of a head carriage structure of a rotating disk data storage system are disclosed. The improvements include circuitry for generating a polyphase track boundary signal which compensates for drift, and which doubles or further increases the track density to increase storage capacity. A track centerline sensor circuit is greatly simplified by including the function thereof as microcode routines within a dedicated digital control processor. Error signals are measured periodically across the entire useful field of the disk, and they are constantly updated, so that improved compensation for drift, runout and offset of the disk relative to the data transducer is achieved. Track overshoot during track seeking movements of the transducer is accomodated, enabling reduced track average access time. Self contained diagnostic routines and a direct digital read out provide system status and error messages to operators and maintenance personnel, thereby facilitating maintenance and adjustment.
