Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of signal extreme value and DC potential strength detecting method thereof of AC signal, refer to be applied to the signal extreme value and the DC potential strength detecting method thereof of the AC signal on an amplifier, an analog-digital converter and the digital signal processor especially.
Background technology
See also Fig. 1, be that an optical read head 10 is arranged at the direction of motion synoptic diagram in the optical pickup device of CD-ROM drive for example, it mainly moves along two kinds of directions, first kind of direction is focus direction (the focusing direction perpendicular to the discs surface, be called for short F), and second kind of direction is the tracking direction (tracking direction is called for short T) that is parallel to the discs surface.And be the mobile FEEDBACK CONTROL of carrying out that can carry out tracking direction to this optical read head, function block schematic diagram as shown in Figure 2, produce a tracking error signal (Tracking Error, be called for short TE) provide control system to carry out reference, optical inductor 20 on the optical read head is received from the discs laser light reflected will produce A, B, C, D, E and six signals of F, and E and F signal are sent into the tracking error signal (TE) that can obtain in the operational amplifier 21 shown in Fig. 3 (a).

Refer again to function block schematic diagram shown in Figure 2, the action of so-called tracking balance (tracking balance) is finished by following assembly, analog-digital converter (Analog-to-Digital Converter wherein, be called for short ADC) 22 tracking error signal (TE) taken a sample and convert digitizing numerical value to after, carry out the detection of peak value and valley with peak detctor 23 (peak detector) and valley value detector 24 (bottom detector) again, tracking balance device 25 estimates out the degree of present potential shift again according to resulting peak value and valley then, and then, be used for the flip-flop that originally should not exist is offset to the remedy defects correction of voltage (offset voltage) of operational amplifier 21.
But because of the intensity of tracking error signal (TE) exceeds 22 scopes that can receive of analog-digital converter most probably, cause 22 tracking error signals that can read of analog-digital converter (TE) waveform shown in Fig. 3 (c), so that follow-up peak detctor (peak detector) is incorrect with resulting peak value of valley value detector (bottom detector) or/and valley, and then can't estimate out the degree that actual potential is offset, make the follow-up voltage that remedies defects that carries out (offset voltage) correction can't effectively reach purpose.And how to improve the disappearance of above-mentioned conventional means, for developing fundamental purpose of the present invention.
