ABSTRACT:
An object pickup device includes a light source, an object lens for concentrating light generated from the light source onto an optical disk, a photodetector for detecting a signal from the light reflected from the optical disk, a disk detecting portion for detecting the light quantity in a light spot concentrated on the optical disk by the object lens and for detecting the optical disk type, a focus offset calculating portion for calculating a focus offset corresponding to the detected disk type, a focus servo portion for performing a focus servo mechanism according to the signal calculated from the focus offset and the signals detected in the photodetector, and a light output optimizing means for optimizing the light output of the light source according to the calculated focus offset signal. Meanwhile, a controlling method of a light output in the optical pickup device includes a disk kind detecting step, a focus offset calculating step, a focus offset adjusting step, and a compensating a focus and track error step.
