Abstract
A default gain table stores values of loop gain of a spindle motor control unit predetermined for each number of media. A loop gain setting unit detects the number of media, reads out a loop gain corresponding to the detected number of media from the default gain table and sets it in the spindle motor control unit. A loop gain measuring unit measures the loop gain of the spindle motor control unit during a test in the manufacturing process, adjusts it into an optimum loop gain, and stores it as a default lop gain in the apparatus.
Claims20
A storage apparatus having a spindle motor control unit which servo-controls a spindle motor so as to maintain media at certain revolutions, comprising:
- a loop gain storing unit which stores a loop gain of said spindle motor control unit predetermined for each of a plurality of numbers of media;
- and
- a loop gain setting unit which detects a number of said media in the storage apparatus, reads out a loop gain corresponding to the detected number of media from said loop gain storing unit and sends the loop gain to said spindle motor control unit.
A spindle motor control method of a storage apparatus comprising:
- a spindle motor controlling step of servo-controlling a spindle motor so as to keep a medium at constant revolutions;
- a loop gain storing step of storing a loop gain of said spindle motor controlling step predetermined for each number of a plurality of numbers of media;
- and
- a loop gain setting step of detecting a number of said media, reading out a loop gain corresponding to the detected number of media from said loop gain storing step, and setting the loop gain for use in said spindle motor controlling step.
