ABSTRACT:
A tracking balance correction apparatus includes a pickup unit which detects a beam reflected from an optical disc and outputs a high frequency reproduction signal and diagonal summing signals, a tracking balance correction unit which receives the diagonal summing signals output from the pickup unit, adjusts phases of the received diagonal summing signals to detect a differential phase, generates and outputs the detected differential phase as a tracking error signal, an envelope detection unit which detects an envelope of the RF signal output from the pickup unit to output an envelope signal, and a digital signal processor which receives the tracking error signal from the tracking balance correction unit, generates a tracking drive voltage to set the tracking error signal to zero, and controls tracking of the pickup unit, and at the same time generates a tracking balance correction voltage according to a maximum magnitude of the envelope signal input from the envelope detection unit, to then output the generated voltage to the tracking balance correction unit.
