Abstract

PURPOSE:To perform recording and reproduction which are adapted to characteristics of a recording medium by measuring optimum recording conditions for the recording medium and recording the recording conditions on the recording medium. CONSTITUTION:Four kinds of data, i.e. recording peak laser power, recording bias magnetic field intensity, slice level data, and gain data which are measured as optimum recording conditions for a recording medium are recorded in the memory in a controller 12 at the end of each detecting operation. When those four data are recorded, they are recorded in respective index areas of the disk 1. Further, when it is judged that a new disk is already used once, i.e. when the four data are already written, the index areas of the disk are reproduced to read in the laser power, bias magnetic field intensity, slice level, and gain data and a controller 12 sets respective values on the basis of those data to make preparations for normal operation.

Conventionally, in this type of apparatus, the laser recording power, recording bias magnetic field strength, slice level for binarization, etc. were fixed or automatically set each time a recording medium was loaded into the apparatus. However, DRAW (Direct Re
In the case of an optical disk of the ``ad After Write'' type, there is a limit to automatic adjustment of the recording power because the recording area and number of times of recording are limited because the area cannot be erased. Further, due to variations in the sensitivity of the recording media, the size of recorded bits also varies from medium to medium, causing errors in recording and reproducing information. Furthermore, if the settings for erasable magneto-optical disks were automatically performed each time they are loaded, it would take an extra amount of time until the device actually records and reproduces data.

First, when the disc is mounted on a turntable (not shown), as shown in step 52, the gain of the amplifier 4 is set to the average playback level of the disc, and the slice level for binarization is set to The peak power of the laser at the time of writing is also set in advance to the value for the average disc when an ideal signal is reproduced. Further, the slice level select switch 13 is connected to the b side. Here, disk 1 has the innermost circumference (or outermost circumference) of the disk.
An index area is set in advance, and this area includes a data area corresponding to the reproduction signal level, a data area corresponding to the bias magnetic field, a data area corresponding to the slice level, and a data area corresponding to the recording peak laser power. An area in which information indicating whether the disc has already been used or not is also set. In steps 53 and 54, the data in this index area is loaded into an information recording/reproducing device (hereinafter referred to as a disk drive), and if the disk is a new disk or a disk that has already been used, the slice level is set in the index m area. It is determined whether each data corresponding to the laser power, bias intensity, and reproduction level has already been written.

If the disc is a completely new disc model, a signal of a constant frequency with a duty ratio of 50% is recorded in a preset area on the disc (hereinafter referred to as the tuning area) (step 55).Next, in step 56.57 , the signal recorded in this tuning area is reproduced, and the duty and cycle of the reproduced signal are measured. Here WIJ
In FIG. 1, the threshold level 21 of the z value conversion circuit is set in advance to a level at which the duty is 50% when the ideal signal is input, so the duty ratio of the reproduced signal is output from the duty ratio detection circuit 6. A signal corresponding to can be obtained. This value is converted into a digital signal by the A/D converter 7 and sent to the controller 12.

If the controller determines that the duty ratio is not 50%, it is determined whether the recording power is large or small based on the duty ratio (step 58). When the duty ratio is less than 50%, that is, when the laser power is small, increase the laser power by a certain amount and the duty ratio becomes 50%.
% or more, that is, if the laser power is too large, reduce the laser power by a certain amount. Also, it is detected here whether the laser power has reached the limit of the control range, and if it is not the limit, the signal in the tuning area is erased and the same process is repeated again with a new laser power (steps 59 to 63). .

Further, when the laser power reaches the control limit, the controller 12 first determines whether the laser power is maximum or minimum, and if it is the maximum, decreases the recording bias magnetic field by a certain amount, and if it is the minimum, increases it (step 64 ~66),
While the bias magnetic field is within the control range, the bias magnetic field is changed by a fixed amount until the duty ratio becomes 50% or the bias reaches the control range limit.If the tuning region is also reached to the control range limit, the laser power, In step 7, connect the switch 13 to the a side for the 0th order where the recording bias magnetic field and the limit value are written in the tuning area.
2) Regenerate the signal (step 73). At this time, the output of the duty cycle detector 6 is fed back and becomes the threshold of the binarization circuit 5. Here, the duty cycle detector is a kind of integral The DC component of the bipartite signal is detected, and the duty ratio is detected from that value. By setting the output of the duty ratio detector 6 to have a duty ratio of 50% when this closed loop is formed, the threshold value will automatically be set to an output with a duty ratio of 5096 even if a distorted signal is input. (Step 73).

By importing this threshold value into the controller 12 by the A/D converter 7 (step 74), setting it as a slice level, and connecting the switch 13 to the b side (step 75), the slice level data is transferred to the D/A converter 10. is converted into an analog value by the binarization circuit 5.

Next, after the duty ratio of the reproduced signal reaches 50%, the analog reproduced signal from the preamplifier is rectified and smoothed within the amplitude detector 8, and the amplitude of the reproduced signal is detected.
The amplitude information is converted into digital data by the A/D converter 9, and the data is imported into the controller 12 (step 7).
7), the controller 12 based on the amplitude data,
Gain data is sent to the variable gain amplifier 4 so that the reproduced signal has a preset amplitude to keep the reproduced signal level constant (step 78).
