Circuit operation
(1) RF amplifier, FOK comparator
RFO is shifted downwards from VB by 0.9V.
However, the resistance between pins 23 and 24 is set
to 20kΩ and if this resistance is changed, use external
components to adjust the shift back to 0.9V. Have the
feedback resistance 10kΩ or greater.
If the DC component of RF rises 0.3V, then FOK becomes high.

FE amplifier and focus search
The voltage for focus search is obtained by the charging
and discharging of the capacitor attached to pin 8. The
charging current is I/10 and the discharging current is I.
The FEO output amplitude (VSERCH) at this time is determined by the formula given below.
VSERCH = ±I

Moreover, from Fig. 3, I can be approximated by the formula given below.

Set R11 so that I becomes 2µA or greater. Apply biasing
to the focus error signal from pin 29. If no adjustment occurs, pin 29 = VB.
The timing charts when the focus loop turns ON or OFF
are given on the next page.

(1) LOOP ON timing
When FOK turns high, the fall of FE’ is detected and the
FOCUS LOOP turns ON.
(2) LOOP OFF timing
After FOK turns low, the FOCUS LOOP turns OFF after
the delay T (s) shown in the figure below.

APC block and AGC block
The initial setting for V1 is 1.2V. When PL-BL (the RF AC
amplitude) exceeds a certain value (VAGC), then AGC lowers V1 and suppresses the laser power. The value of VAGC
is Iagc 20k, where Iagc is set by the formula given below.
Iagc =
1.2
1.4kR18
When R18 = 10kΩ, Iagc = 50µA and VAGC = 1V.
When defect turns high, Tr1 turns OFF.

DET block
When defect is high, the bottom hold (long) charging current is 50µA. The scratch depth (VSC) can be adjusted by
changing the resistance at pin 9.

The peak hold voltage will not go below (GND ) 0.9V)
and the bottom hold voltage will not go below (VCC *
0.9V).
