ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for testing the calibration of hard disk substrate tester includes a calibrating micrometer moving a known surface to at least two distances from a non-contact detector in the hard disk surface tester and a known distance from each other, and further includes a piezoelectric transducer mounted to the known surface moved by the calibrating micrometer, and an oscillator oscillating the surface at predetermined frequencies and amplitudes. A method for determining the status of calibration of the hard disk substrate tester places a known surface at least two distances from or positions in relation to a surface detector in the hard disk substrate tester, determining the distance between these positions, driving the known surface usually by generating an oscillation thereof by a piezoelectric transducer at one or at a set or plurality of predetermined monotone frequencies and amplitudes, and determining the calibration of the hard disk substrate tester by comparing its output with the corresponding predetermined frequency and amplitude of the driven surface.
