3-5. FOCUS SERVO
Focus servo system
Focus servo system is used to find focus ON point and to trace focus actuator into focus point using parallel
digital compensator.
Refer to below focus search diagram.

1. Light laser on through the IC101.
2. Move lens up or down and determine disk. Check amplitude of AS signal to make FOK.
3. Move lens up and down, find S-curve amplitude of FE.
4. Move lens down and up, monitor FE voltage. If [reference voltage (about 1.65V) - FE s-curve amplitude/8],
close servo loop and focus ON.
5. If AS signal is 2ms higher than threshold, FOK is “H” and focus servo is ok.
When AS is 2ms lower than threshold, FOK is “L”.
FOK is using only in IC201, not in IC 201. (Impossible to FOK signal check with termina of IC201)
