Page 2: ...f MD T Definition of an MD and the types of MDs Y MD stands for mini disc Y Similar to a music CD an MD is also a small disc capable of recording and playing back digital sound Y There are 2 types of MDs a optical disc for playback only MD and a magnet optic disc for recordable MD that is capable of both recording and playback Y A playback only MD is merely a smaller diameter version of a CD Just ...

Page 4: ...o further explain the principle used to read the signals recorded on a magnet optic disc first a laser beam is directed at the disc If the direction of the magnetism recorded on the disc is upward north polarity the plane of polarization of the light reflected from the disc rotates very slightly clockwise as a result of the Kerr effect Conversely if the direction of the magnetism is downward south...

Page 5: ...g recorded is 1 or 0 the direction of the magnetic field also changes between north and south and accordingly the direction of the magnetization of the recording film changes between upward facing and downward facing Thus it is possible to directly magnetize the recording film on the disc in accordance with the 0 and 1 digital signals Y Thus the new recording data is overwritten regardless of the ...

Page 6: ...because the addresses are already recorded around the entire circumference of the disc when the MD is recorded those addresses are read in order to control the movement of the optical pickup and perform CLV control Y To record immediately quick access is first performed to quickly search for an blank area on the disc and then recording will automatically begin When recording is completed that addr...
