    In the optical disk apparatus, in order to eliminate the lens offset generated at the time of the search following the reading, it is necessary to search just a few sectors before the target position to be read, and the access time has been delayed by that much. The offset amount 85 of the lens is measured at the start of the retrieval following the readout, and the number of sectors ahead of the target position 82 of the readout is set by the two parameters of the lens offset amount and the number of retrieval tracks. Decide As a result, an optimum search position for eliminating the lens offset can be appropriately set, thereby improving access time.

    Pick-up drive control device of optical disk device {PICKUP DRIVE CONTROLLER FOR OPTICAL DISC DRIVE}
    [2] In recent years, the standard mounting of an optical disk device in a personal computer has been rapidly progressed, and it is indispensable as a function of a personal computer together with a hard disk driver. Initially, CD-ROM drives accounted for the majority of optical disc devices, but nowadays DVD-ROM drives with larger capacities than CD-ROM drives or CD-R / CD-RW drives that can be written or rewritten are standard. Personal computers have also emerged, and DVD-R and DVD-RAM drives are on the market.
    [3] An example of the configuration of this optical disk drive is shown in FIG. In the figure, 11 denotes an optical disc (hereinafter abbreviated as disc), 12 a spindle motor for rotating the disc 11, 13 a pick-up for reading information of the disc 11, 14 is a lens for imaging the reflected light from the disk 11 on the pickup 13, 15 is a feed for supporting the pickup 13 to move, 16 is driving the feed 15 to drive the pickup 13; A feed motor for moving, 17 is a driver IC for driving control of the spindle motor 12, the pickup 13, the feed motor 16 and the digital signal processing IC 19, 18 from the pickup 13. Analog front end ICs for processing RF signals, 19 are digital signal processing ICs for processing digital signals from analog front end ICs 18, 20 are output from digital signal processing ICs 19, and Decoder ICs for decoding digital signals, 21 are driver ICs 17 of this optical disk drive, analog CPU, 22 for controlling the front-end IC (18), a digital signal processing IC (19) and a decoder IC (20) is a host such as a personal computer main unit that the command for the optical disk drive.
    [4] Next, the operation will be described. The disk 11 is rotationally driven at a constant linear velocity or a constant angular velocity by the spindle motor 12. With respect to the rotating disk 11, the pickup 13 irradiates a laser beam onto the disk surface while moving radially from the inner circumferential side to the outer circumferential side of the disk, and reads out data on the disk surface from the change in the reflected light. Data called pits are helically recorded on the disk surface, which is generally referred to as a track, and the pickup 13 is wired to a housing in the pickup 13 in order to read this data accurately. The lens 14 is driven perpendicular to the disk surface to focus on the disk surface of the laser light. In addition, the difference in the track center is detected by the change of the laser reflected light from the disk surface, and the lens 14 is driven horizontally in the radial direction with respect to the disk surface, so that the laser light is located at the center of the data (track). Tracking control is performed as much as possible. The lens 14 performs focus servo control and tracking servo control with the disk 11, and the pickup 13 reads data from the disk surface and sends it to the analog front end IC 18. Hereinafter, the reproduced data is transmitted to the host 22 via the digital signal processing IC 19 and the decoder IC 20.
    [5] By the way, as mentioned above, since the data is recorded spirally on the disk surface, the pickup 13 must move from the inner circumference to the outer circumference side as time passes. There are two methods for the movement of the pickup 13, the method of moving the lens 14 in the housing of the pickup 13 and the method of moving the feed 15 to which the pickup 13 is fixed.
    [6] Usually, the method of first moving the lens 14 to follow the track and moving the feed 15 to return the lens 14 to the center of the housing when the lens 14 moves more than a predetermined position from the center of the housing. It is used. In contrast, a search operation is performed when reading data at an arbitrary position on the disk surface by a command from the outside (for example, a host) or the like. The retrieval operation is a retrieval process of obtaining the number of tracks from the current position to the target position by calculation and moving the pickup 13 at a high speed by that number.
    [7] There are two processes for the movement of the pickup 13 in this search. The search process of moving the feed 15 to carry the pickup 13 to the target position is commonly referred to as feed search, and is used for relatively long distance movement. Is used. On the other hand, a retrieval process of moving the feed 15 to reach a target position for moving the lens 14 within the housing of the pickup 13 is usually called a quick retrieval, and is a relatively short distance retrieval. Is used. The search operation is performed by a combination of these two search processes.
    [8] By the way, in the above-described optical disk apparatus, as shown in Fig. 2, the lens 24 is supported by the wires 25 and 26 in the pickup 23, so there is a problem in that it is extremely weak in external vibration and the like. That is, in the pickup, the above-described feed retrieval process is also an external vibration, so that when the acceleration and deceleration of the feed movement becomes stronger, as shown in Fig. 3, the lens 34 is moved from the center in the pickup 33 at the end of the feed retrieval. The problem arises. Fig. 3 (a) shows an example in which the lens 34 is biased toward the outer circumferential side in the pickup 33 by searching in the inner circumferential direction, and Fig. 3 (b) shows the lens 34 picking up by the searching in the outer circumferential direction. The example which is biased to the inner peripheral side in (33) is shown.
    [9] Another problem is that the feed may continue to move due to inertia even after the end of the feed search, causing the lens to be skewed. 4 shows the positional variation of the lens in the pickup after the feed search. 4 (a) is immediately after the end of the feed search. At this point, the lens 44 is located at the center of the pickup 43. However, in practice, the feed continues to move due to the inertia of the feed, and when the kick search is executed, the lens 44 may already be biased as shown in Fig. 4B. This is a problem such that, as a result, the lens is biased as the acceleration / deceleration of the above-described feed movement becomes stronger.
    [10] Next, Fig. 5 shows how the lens bias adversely affects servo control. Normally, the lens is positioned at the lens position 52, i.e., the center of the pickup, to deflect the light from the laser 54 to focus on the disk 51 surface. And it has a function which reflects the reflected light from the disk 51 to the light receiving element 55 of a pickup. However, if the lens is in a biased lens position 53, the reflected light from the laser 54 leaves the light receiving element 55 as indicated by the dotted line. Therefore, the reading of the correct data is disturbed, and since the tracking servo generates position signals from the reflected light of the disk, the tracking servo becomes unstable when the lens is biased.
    [11] By the way, when a read command from an arbitrary position comes from the host 22 of FIG. 1, it is ideal to make the search position 63 immediately before the read start position (target position) 62 as an arbitrary position like FIG. . The distance between the search position 63 and the read start position 62 is shorter than the distance of one sector 61. However, as described above, since there is a possibility of generating a lens offset by the retrieval processing, as shown in Fig. 7, the retrieval position 73 precedes the read start position 72 by several sectors 77 (disc. Set to the inner circumferential side), and play tracing is performed at the same trace speed as the normal playback to the read start position 72, so that the lens offset 74 is changed from the lens offset 75 at the end of the search to the lens offset at the start of reading ( 76).
    [12] However, since the situation in which any search is set ahead of the number of sectors 77 does not change, this takes more access time by the play trace time of the number of sectors 77. In addition, if the lens offset amount generated even in this manner is very large, the lens offset may not be eliminated until the start of reading, and a reading error may be generated.
    [13] This invention is made | formed in order to solve the said subject, and an object of this invention is to provide the pick-up drive control apparatus of the optical disk apparatus which can be read after stabilizing lens movement.

    [14] In order to solve the said subject, the pickup drive control apparatus of the optical disk apparatus of Claim 1 of this invention is a lens offset measuring means which measures the amount of offset from the lens center in the pickup which arises at the time of a search of a pickup, and Retrieval position setting means for setting the retrieval position to end the retrieval toward the target position of the pickup with respect to the pickup drive means based on two parameters of the lens offset amount measured by the lens offset measuring means and the number of retrieval tracks to be retrieved It is characterized by having a.
    [15] In the present invention, the above-described configuration allows the search position to be approached to the target position when the lens offset before the search is small or at the time when the lens offset is hardly generated. Since it can be set, the access time at the time of reading is improved.
    [16] For this reason, as described above, when the lens offset before the search is small or when the search for which the lens offset hardly occurs, the search position is approached to the target position, whereby an optimal search position for eliminating the lens offset to the target position is appropriately obtained. Since it can be set, the access time at the time of reading can be improved and the reliability of reading can be improved.
    [17] In addition, the pickup drive control device for an optical disk device according to claim 2 of the present invention is the pickup drive control device for an optical disk device according to claim 1, wherein the lens offset measuring means is within a pickup generated when a pickup is retrieved. Measuring the lens offset direction in addition to the offset amount from the lens center, wherein the search position setting means uses two parameters, the lens offset direction and the search direction, as parameters for determining the search position. will be.
    [18] In the present invention, the configuration described above allows the search position to be approached to the read start position depending on the direction of the offset and the direction of the next search even if the lens offset occurs to some extent. The search position of can be set appropriately, and the access time at the time of reading is further improved.
    [19] For this reason, as described above, even if the lens offset occurs to some extent, the search position is brought close to the read start position in accordance with the direction of the offset and the next search direction, so that an optimal search position for eliminating the lens offset can be appropriately set. This has the effect of further improving the access time at the time of reading.
    [20] The pickup drive control device for an optical disk device according to claim 3 of the present invention is the pickup drive control device for an optical disk device according to claim 1, wherein the search position setting means rotates the search position with respect to a target position. It is characterized by a change in speed.
    [21] In the present invention, the above-described configuration allows the search position to approach the read start position at the low speed when the lens offset is canceled, so that the optimum search position according to the speed is appropriately set so that the lens offset can be adjusted. The access time is further improved.
    [22] For this reason, as described above, in order to eliminate the lens offset, the search position is brought closer to the read start position than at the high speed, so that the optimum search position according to the speed is appropriately set so that the access time at the time of reading There is an effect that can be improved more.
    [23] In addition, the pickup drive control apparatus of the optical disk apparatus according to claim 4 of the present invention is a lens offset measurement means for measuring and storing the offset amount and offset direction from the lens center in the pickup at the end of the search, and the search for the next search. When the number of tracks is less than or equal to the predetermined value, the movement amount immediately before the search of the feed supporting the pickup can be calculated by comparing the offset amount and the offset direction immediately before the search with the offset amount and the offset direction stored in the lens offset measuring means. And search position setting means for setting, on the pickup driving means, a search position to end the search toward the target position of the pickup, based on the result of the calculation.
    [24] In the present invention, the above-described configuration makes it possible to predict the lens offset caused by the inaccurate feed movement and determine the optimum search position for eliminating this, thereby achieving a stable reading operation.
    [25] For this reason, as mentioned above, since the lens offset which arises because the feed movement is inaccurate | predicted can be predicted and the optimum search position which eliminates this can be determined, there exists an effect that a stable reading operation can be implement | achieved.
    [26] Further, the pickup drive control device for an optical disk device according to claim 5 of the present invention is the pickup drive control device for an optical disk device according to claim 4, wherein the search position setting means sets the search position with respect to a target position to the rotational speed of the disk. It is also characterized by changing.
    [27] In the present invention, the above-described configuration makes it possible to appropriately set the optimum search position according to the speed since the search position is closer to the read start position at high speed than at high speed when the lens offset is eliminated. The access time at the time of reading is further improved.
    [28] Therefore, as described above, in resolving the lens offset, the optimum search position can be appropriately set at lower speed than at high speed than at high speed, and at higher speed than at high speed. There is an effect that can improve the time more.
    [29] Further, the pickup drive control device for an optical disk device according to claim 6 of the present invention is the pickup drive control device for an optical disk device according to claim 1 or 4, wherein the search position setting means corresponds to a search position for a target position. It is characterized in that it is set immediately before at least one sector or more of the target position.
    [30] In the present invention, by configuring as described above, unnecessary vibration of the lens is absorbed immediately after the search in one sector immediately before reading, and stable reading operation is realized.
    [31] For this reason, as mentioned above, the unnecessary vibration of a lens is absorbed immediately after a search in one sector immediately before reading, and there exists an effect which can implement a stable reading operation.
    [32] Further, the pickup drive control apparatus of the optical disk apparatus according to claim 7 of the present invention has lens offset measuring means for measuring the amount of offset from the lens center in the pickup, and the amount of offset at the end of searching becomes equal to or less than a predetermined value. And a search position setting means for setting the search position at the pick-up driving means and the search position at the time of the kickback to end the search toward the target position of the pickup, so as to execute the kickback to search the pickup in the reverse direction to the original search until the pickup is provided. It is characterized by one.
    [33] In the present invention, the above-described configuration enables stable reading because the lens offset is always eliminated during reading. In addition, since the search position can be set immediately before the read start position, when the offset is small, the transition from the search to the readout can be performed, thereby improving the access time.
    [34] For this reason, as described above, the offset amount of the lens is measured at the end of the search, and the kickback is executed without reading until this value is equal to or less than a predetermined threshold value. Since the offset is eliminated, stable reading can be performed, and the search position can be set immediately before the read start position. Therefore, when the offset is small, the transition can be made directly from the search to the read, thereby improving access time. There is.
    [35] The pickup drive control device for an optical disk device according to claim 8 of the present invention is a pickup drive control device for an optical disk device according to claim 7, wherein the search position setting means is within the pickup at the time point at which a read error occurs. It is characterized in that the value of the offset amount from the lens center at E is used as a value to compare with the offset amount at the end of the search.
    [36] In the present invention, by configuring as described above, it is possible to obtain the maximum offset amount at which an error does not occur while learning the offset amount at which a read error occurs in actual operation, so that unnecessary readback is not performed and stable read access is achieved. Improvement of time is realized.
    [37] Therefore, as described above, in actual operation, while learning the offset amount in which a read error occurs, the maximum offset amount in which the error does not occur can be found, thereby improving the stable read access time without unnecessary kickback. There is an effect that can be realized.
    [38] The pickup drive control device for an optical disk device according to claim 9 of the present invention is the pickup drive control device for an optical disk device according to claim 8, wherein the search position setting means has a value that is compared with an offset amount at the end of the search. It has a limiter which sets a lower limit so that it may become less than a predetermined value.
    [39] In the present invention, the configuration as described above allows the reader to actively read when there is a possibility of reading and avoid unnecessary kickback, thereby improving access time.
    [40] For this reason, as described above, when there is a possibility of reading, there is an effect that the access time can be improved by actively reading out an unnecessary kickback.
    [59] EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION The optical disc apparatus which shows embodiment of this invention is demonstrated concretely with reference to drawings.
    [60] (Example 1)
    [61] A first embodiment corresponding to the optical disk device according to Claims 1, 2 and 3 of the present invention will be described with reference to Figs. 1 and 8 to 13.
    [62] In the first embodiment, the lens level shift before the search is not a problem, and the number of searches is set to the minimum when searching by the number unit where the lens shift hardly occurs. Otherwise, the lens shift before the search is set. The number of searches is determined based on the relationship between the amount and the number of searches, thereby eliminating unnecessary search numbers and improving access time.
    [63] In the block diagram of FIG. 1, the offset amount of the lens 14 is input from the pickup 13 to the A / D converter terminal of the CPU 21 of the optical disk device via the analog front end IC 18. Therefore, the CPU 21 can determine the offset amount and the offset direction of the lens by performing A / D conversion on the output signal of the light receiving element of the pickup 13 by a soft or built-in A / D converter to determine the bias. have. Thereby, the lens offset measuring means (not shown) which measures the amount of offset from the lens center in the pickup which arises at the time of a search of a pickup is comprised.
    [64] Now, in order to make this Embodiment 1 correspond to the invention described in Claim 1, in the case of first searching by the read command from the host 22, the CPU 21 measures the offset of the lens, Equation 1 determines the search position.
    [65]
    [66] SeekPos: Search location (sector)
    [67] ReadPos: Read start position (sector)
    [68] offset: the offset amount of the lens
    [69] T: number of searches
    [70] α: coefficient
    [71] β: coefficient
    [72] to be.
    [73] By calculating this equation (1), the CPU 21 selects a search position to end the search toward the target position of the pickup based on two parameters of the lens offset amount measured by the lens offset measuring means and the number of search tracks to search. And search position setting means (not shown) set in the driver IC 17 as the pickup driving means.
    [74] In general, in search, as the number of searches increases, the distance to which the pickup is moved increases, and the lens offset may increase accordingly. When the number of searches is small, the change in the lens offset can be ignored. That is, since the lens offset generated by the search correlates with the number of searches, the offset amount generated after the search is predicted from the number of searches and included in the above equation (1).
    [75] Here, an example of the actual drive pattern based on Equation 1 is shown.
    [76] First, the search number T is made small enough that no offset occurs. 8 shows a case where the lens offset before the search is large, but due to the amount of the lens offset 85 at the position before the search 88, the search position 83 is determined by the number of sectors relative to the read start position 82. 87) is set immediately before. Since this search number is a sufficiently small value, the lens offset immediately after the search does not change from before the search, but by play tracing between the sector number 87 after the search, the lens offset from the read start position 82 to the lens offset 86 is achieved. (84) can be reduced.
    [77] 9 shows a case where the lens offset 95 at the pre-search position 98 is small, the search position 93 is set just before the sector number 97 with respect to the read start position 92. This sector number 97 is smaller than the sector number 87. As a result, the search position 93 is positioned immediately before the read start position 92, but since the original lens offset 94 is small, the lens offset 96 at the read start position 92 is sufficiently small. It is.
    [78] In the conventional optical disk apparatus, the sector difference 87 between the read start position 82 and the search position 83 in Fig. 8 is always set constantly regardless of the lens offset value. By determining the search position, the sector difference 87 varies according to the offset amount and the search number of the lens, so that the sector difference becomes larger as the offset amount and the search number of the lens become larger.
    [79] In addition, as shown in FIG. 9, when the lens offset before the search is small, the sector difference 97 between the read start position 92 and the search position 93 is made small so that unnecessary play trace time is omitted to improve access time. Doing.
    [80] 10 and 11 show examples of drive patterns in which the number of searches is changed by setting the lens offset value before the search as an arbitrary value. 10 is a case where the search number T is large enough to generate a lens offset, but the search position 103 is set immediately before the read start position 102 by the sector number 107 with respect to the read start position 102. In this case, since the number of searches is large, the lens offset 109 immediately after the search is increasing rather than the offset 105 of the position before search 108, but the read start position 102 by play tracing between the number of sectors 107 after the search. ), The lens offset 104 can be reduced to the lens offset 106.
    [81] 11 is a case where the search number T is small enough not to generate a lens offset, but the search position 113 is set just before the read start position 112 by the sector number 117 with respect to the read start position 112. Sector number 117 is a smaller value than sector number 107. Accordingly, the search position 113 is positioned immediately before the read start position 112, but the lens offset 114 is the lens offset 115 at the position 118 before the search and the lens at the search position 113. Since the offset 119 is the same and there is no occurrence of lens offset due to a search between them, the lens offset 116 at the read start position 112 is a sufficiently small value.
    [82] In the conventional optical disk apparatus, the sector difference 107 between the read start position 102 and the search position 103 in FIG. 10 is always constant regardless of the number of searches. In the present invention, the search position is determined based on Equation (1). By determining, the sector difference 107 fluctuates according to the offset amount and the search number of the lens, so that the sector difference becomes larger as the offset amount and the search number of the lens become larger.
    [83] As shown in FIG. 11, when the number of searches is small, the sector difference 117 between the read start position 112 and the search position 113 is made smaller, thereby eliminating unnecessary play trace times, thereby improving access time. .
    [84] In this way, when searching by reading, the amount of offset from the lens center in the pickup is measured to determine the search position by two parameters, the lens offset amount and the number of search tracks. In the case of a search in which the lens offset is hardly generated, by accessing the search position to the read start position, the optimum search position for eliminating the lens offset can be appropriately set, so that the access time at the time of reading can be improved.
    [85] Next, in order to make this Embodiment 1 correspond to the invention described in Claim 2, the CPU 21 constituting the lens offset measurement means when the search is first performed by a read command from the host 22 is executed. The offset amount and the offset direction of the lens 14 are measured, and the search position is determined by the following equation (2).
    [86]
    [87] SeekPos: Search location (sector)
    [88] ReadPos: Read start position (sector)
    [89] offset: The amount of offset of the lens (inner circumference: +, outer circumference:-)
    [90] T: Number of Searches (Inner Direction:-, Outer Direction: +)
    [91] α: coefficient
    [92] β: coefficient
    [93] to be.
    [94] By calculating this equation (2), the CPU 21 constituting the search position setting means uses the search position by using not only the offset amount of the lens 14 and the number of search tracks to be searched, but also the lens offset direction and the search direction as parameters. Decide
    [95] 12 shows a case where the lens 124 is searched to the outer circumferential side from the state where the lens 124 is offset to the inner circumferential side in the pickup 123. Since the search direction is a direction of increasing the lens offset, the search position according to Equation 2 becomes a calculation position similar to that of Equation 1 corresponding to claim 1.
    [96] On the other hand, FIG. 13 shows a case where the lens 134 is searched toward the inner circumferential side in the pickup 133, and also on the inner circumferential side. In this case, since the direction of the search is a direction of removing the lens offset, the search position can be made closer to the read start position than the calculation position in the case of claim 1. Therefore, Equation 2 also considers the direction of the search direction and the lens offset as parameters so as to reflect this point, and when the direction of the lens offset and the search direction are the same, the search position is closer to the read start position than the claim 1. Can be. For this reason, access time can be improved more.
    [97] Thus, the lens offset is determined by measuring the offset amount from the lens center in the pickup at the time of retrieval following the reading and determining the retrieval position by four parameters: the lens offset amount, the lens offset direction, the number of search tracks, and the retrieval direction. Even if this occurs to some extent, the search position can be approached to the read start position according to the direction of the offset and the direction of the next search, so that an optimal search position that eliminates the lens offset can be appropriately set, and the access time at the time of reading is improved. It can be improved more.
    [98] Next, in order to make this Embodiment 1 correspond to the invention of Claim 3, a search position is set by following formula (3) based on Formula (1) which calculates | requires the search position of Claim 1.

    [102] to be.
    [103] The CPU 21 constituting the search position setting means changes this search position with respect to the target position also by the rotational speed of the disk by calculating this equation (3).
    [104] Equation 3 allows the search position relative to the read start position to be changed in accordance with the rotational speed of the disc, so that the actual time of play tracing from the search position to the read start position until the lens offset convergence is achieved. Since it becomes constant irrespective of this, there is an effect of shortening unnecessary play trace time at low speed, and the access time can be further improved.
    [105] In this way, since the search position with respect to the read start position is changed by the rotational speed of the disc, when the lens offset is canceled, the search position is closer to the read start position than at high speed when the lens offset is canceled. The optimum search position can be set appropriately to further improve the access time at the time of reading.
    [106] (Example 2)
    [107] Next, a second embodiment corresponding to the optical disk device according to Claims 4, 5 and 6 of the present invention will be described with reference to Figs. However, about the same structure as Example 1 mentioned above, description is abbreviate | omitted using the same code | symbol.
    [108] The second embodiment calculates the position of the feed based on the search position at the end of the previous conference search and the search position at the start of the next conference search. By setting it in front of it, the offset of the feed as the feed continues to move is eliminated, and the reading performance is improved.
    [109] First, in order to make this Embodiment 2 correspond to the invention of Claim 4, when performing a search first by the read command from the host 22 of FIG. By comparing the offset amount of the lens measured at and with the offset amount of the lens measured immediately before this time, the speed of the feed that continues to move by inertia is obtained. Using this speed, the search position is determined by the following equation (4).
    [110]
    [111] SeekPos: Search location (sector)
    [112] ReadPos: Read start position (sector)
    [113] offset 1: Lens offset amount at the end of the previous search
    [114] offset 2: Lens offset amount at the beginning of this search
    [115] α: coefficient
    [116] to be.
    [117] Since the number of search tracks is less than or equal to a predetermined value that does not generate a lens offset, correction by search number is ignored.
    [118] By calculating this equation (4), the CPU 21 constituting the search position setting means supports the pickup movement by comparing the offset amount immediately before the search with the offset direction when the number of search tracks for the next search is equal to or less than the predetermined value. The motion immediately before the search of the feed is calculated, and the search position to end the search toward the target position of the pickup is set in the driver IC 17 as the pickup driving means based on the calculation result.
    [119] Next, an example of the actual driving pattern based on the above expression (4) is shown. 14 shows a case in which the feed has a velocity in the circumferential direction at the start of the search. In this case, the lens offset 146 at the time of the previous search position 141 is increased to the lens offset 147 at the start of the search this time 142, indicating that the feed has a speed in the circumferential direction. Therefore, the search position 143 is set forward by the number of sectors 140 than the read start position 144 by the above equation (4). As a result, the lens offset 145 at the read start position 144 is sufficiently reduced than the lens offset 148 at the search position 143, so that the lens offset 145 can be stably read.
    [120] On the other hand, when the feed does not have a speed, the search position is set just before the read start position by Equation 4 so that unnecessary play tracing is not performed, thereby improving access time.
    [121] In this way, by measuring and storing the offset amount and the offset direction from the lens center in the pickup at the end of the search, and comparing it with the offset amount and the offset direction immediately before the search when the number of search tracks of the search according to the next reading is equal to or less than the random value. Since the movement of the feed immediately before the search is calculated and the search position is determined by this, the lens offset caused by the feed movement is not accurate and the optimal search position to solve this can be determined. It can be realized.
    [122] Next, in order to make this Example 2 into invention corresponding to the invention of Claim 5, a search position is set to the following formula (5) based on Formula (4) which calculates | requires the search position of Claim 4.
    [123]
    [124] R: RPM
    [125] γ: coefficient
    [126] to be.
    [127] By calculating this equation (5), the CPU 21 constituting the search position setting means changes the search position with respect to the target position based on the rotational speed of the disk.
    [128] Equation 5 allows the search position to be changed in accordance with the rotational speed of the disk, so that the actual time of play tracing from the search position to the read start position to the lens offset procedure becomes constant regardless of the speed of the disk. Therefore, there is an effect that an unnecessary play trace time can be shortened at a low speed, and the access time can be further improved.
    [129] In this way, since the search position with respect to the read start position is changed by the rotational speed of the disc, when the lens offset is canceled, the search position is closer to the read start position than at high speed when the lens offset is canceled. The optimum search position can be set appropriately and the access time at the time of reading can be further improved.
    [130] Next, in order to make this Example 2 correspond to the invention of Claim 6, in Formula (1) and (4) which calculate | require the search position of Claim 1 and Claim 4,
    [131] If SeekPos = ReadPos,
    [132]
    [133] Process. However, α is a variable satisfying α≥1.
    [134] By calculating this equation (6), the CPU 21 constituting the retrieval position setting means sets the retrieval position corresponding to the target position at least one sector immediately before the read start position.
    [135] As a result, the search position can be set at least immediately before one or more sectors of the read start position, and at least one sector is ensured until the start of the readout after the search, thereby restraining unnecessary vibration of the lens immediately after the search and achieving a stable read operation.
    [136] In this manner, by setting the search position with respect to the read start position at least one sector immediately before the read start position, unnecessary vibration of the lens is absorbed immediately after the search in one sector immediately before the read, and stable reading operation can be realized.
    [137] (Example 3)
    [138] Next, FIG. 1, FIG. 15, FIG. 16, FIG. 17 and FIG. 18 according to the embodiments corresponding to the optical disk apparatuses of Claims 7, 8 and 9 of the present invention will be described.
    [139] In the third embodiment, the search position is set immediately before the read start position, and if the lens shift after the search is at a problem level, the reading processing is performed as it is. If the lens shift is occurring, one track kickback is performed and the lens By continuing this until the shift is resolved, the access time can be improved because the reading is shifted immediately when the lens shift is occurring, and the kickback is suppressed when the lens shift is occurring to improve the reading performance. I would have to.
    [140] In the block diagram of FIG. 1, the offset amount of the lens 14 is input from the pickup 13 to the A / D converter terminal of the CPU 21 via the analog front end 18. Therefore, the CPU 21 can know the offset amount and the offset direction of the lens by performing A / D conversion on the output signal of the light receiving element of the pickup 13 by a soft or built-in A / D converter to determine the bias. .
    [141] Now, in order to make this Embodiment 3 correspond to the invention described in Claim 7, when the search is first performed by the read command from the host 22, the CPU 21 measures the offset of the lens at the end of the search. . In FIG. 15, when the lens offset amount 155 at the search end position 153 is larger than the offset threshold 159, the search is performed in the one track inner circumferential direction. This operation is called a kickback, and thus moves to the search end position 157. From this point, it is confirmed that the lens offset amount 158 when moving to the position 153 by the play trace is smaller than the offset threshold 159, and the read processing is performed at the read start position 152. The lens offset 156 at the read start position 152 is smaller than the lens offset amount 158 at the end of the search 153. If the lens offset amount 158 at the position 153 is larger than the offset threshold 159, kickback is performed again and repeated until the lens offset amount 158 becomes smaller than the offset threshold 159. .
    [142] The CPU 21 constituting the retrieval position setting means performs the above processing to perform the kickback for retrieving the pickup in the reverse direction to the original retrieval until the offset amount at the end of the retrieval becomes less than or equal to a predetermined value. The search position to end the search toward the target position at and the search position at the kickback are set in the driver IC 17 as the pickup driving means.
    [143] Thereby, since the lens offset amount 154 converges and is transferred to reading, stable reading processing is realized.
    [144] 16 shows a case where the lens offset amount 165 at the search end position 163 is smaller than the offset threshold 169 from the beginning. In this case, it is not necessary to execute the kickback to reduce the lens offset 164, and read processing is performed from the read start position 162 as it is. The lens offset 166 at the read start position 162 is smaller than the lens offset at the search end position 163. In this way, since the lens offset immediately after the search is monitored, the search position can be made immediately before the read start position, and the search time can be shortened.
    [145] In this way, the lens offset amount was measured at the end of the search following the readout, and the kickoff was performed without performing the readout until the value became less than an arbitrary value. The reading can be stable. In addition, since the search position is set immediately before the read start position, when the offset is small, it is possible to shift directly from the search to the read and improve the access time.
    [146] Next, in order to make this Embodiment 3 correspond to the invention of Claim 8, the above-mentioned arbitrary offset amount is changed in actual operation. In other words, the CPU 21 constituting the search position setting means uses the value of the offset amount from the lens center in the pickup at the point of time when a recording error occurs as the value comparing with the offset amount at the end of the search.
    [147] Although the lens offset amount 175 at the end of the search 173 is smaller than the offset threshold 179 in FIG. 17, if the reading error is generated and a reading error is generated, the present invention uses the lens offset amount 175 at this time. ) Is stored by the CPU 21 and used as an offset threshold value 180 that determines that the search is to be ended at the next reading. Thereafter, at the time when a recording error occurs, while learning the offset amount at which the reading error occurs by updating the offset threshold value that determines that the search is over, in fact, at the read start position 172, the lens offset 174 does not generate an error. It can be converged to the maximum amount of offsets that are not available, thereby avoiding unnecessary kickback, resulting in stable reading and improved access time.
    [148] In this manner, at the time of the recording error, the offset amount from the lens center in the pickup is measured and stored, and the kickback is performed without reading until the offset amount at the end of the search becomes equal to or less than this stored offset value. By doing so, it is possible to obtain the maximum offset amount at which an error does not occur while learning the offset amount at which a recording error occurs in the actual operation. Thus, it is possible to realize stable reading and improvement of access time without unnecessary kickback.
    [149] Next, in order to make this Embodiment 3 correspond to the invention of Claim 9, a lower limit is provided for updating of the offset threshold value determined as the end of a search mentioned above. That is, the CPU 21 constituting the search position setting means has a limiter for setting the lower limit value so that the value compared with the offset amount at the end of the search does not become a predetermined value or less.
    [150] In FIG. 18, if the readout is performed to generate a reading error even though the lens offset amount 185 at the end of the search 183 is smaller than the offset threshold 189, in the present invention, the lens offset amount 185 at this time. Is stored by the CPU 21 and used as the offset threshold 190 which determines that the search is to be ended at the next reading. However, when the offset threshold 190 falls below the lower limit value 191 of the offset amount, the offset amount is set. The lower limit value 191 of the offset amount is used as the threshold value without updating. As a result, when the offset amount 184 may actually be read very small at the read start position 182, the offset amount 184 is actively read, and unnecessary kickback is performed to improve the access time.
    [151] In this way, at the time of recording error, the offset amount from the lens center in the pickup is measured and stored, and the kickback is performed without reading until the offset amount at the end of the search becomes equal to or less than this stored offset value. However, since the lower limit is provided so that the stored offset value does not become a fixed value or less, it is possible to read actively when there is a possibility of reading, and to improve access time without unnecessary kickback.
    [152] Incidentally, although the CD-ROM drive has been described as an example in the first to third embodiments, in the optical disk device which can be applied to the entire optical disk device, and can be recorded or rewritten as well as a search by reading, The same applies to the retrieval processing according to the recording and the like, and has the same effects as those of the first to third embodiments.
    [153] As described above, the pickup drive control apparatus of the optical disk apparatus according to the present invention is useful for driving control of pickup in an apparatus for reading or writing to an optical disk medium such as a CD-ROM drive. It is suitable for using the pickup for drive control so as to quickly eliminate the lens bias caused by the search operation.
