ABSTRACT:
A method for automatically calibrating gain parameters of a servo control including a track position detector for a computer disk drive. The method generally comprises the step of encoding AB bursts on at least one special calibration track of a disk surface in accordance with a known off center pattern signal having a preselected frequency. Servo correction number information is also encoded on the calibration track to compensate for the off center pattern of the AB bursts. A digital signal processing technique is performed on a correction signal derived from the AB bursts and servo correction number information to detect a residual signal at the preselected frequency of the off center pattern signal. The gain of the track position detector is thereafter adjusted to minimize the magnitude of the residual signal.
