Theory of Device Operation
4.7 Servo Control
The actuator motor and the spindle motor are submitted to servo control. The actuator motor is controlled for moving and positioning the head to the track containing the desired data. To turn the disk at a constant velocity, the actuator motor is controlled according to the servo data that is written on the data side beforehand.

(1) Microprocessor unit (MPU)
The MPU executes startup of the spindle motor, movement to the reference cylinder, seek to the specified cylinder, and calibration operations. Main internal operation of the MPU are shown below.
The major internal operations are listed below.
