ABSTRACT:
A clock rate adjustment apparatus and a method for adjusting a clock rate of a clock for an optical storage system are provided. The clock rate adjustment apparatus comprises an indication provider, a throughput rate detector, and a clock generator. The method performs the following steps. The indication provider generates an indicatory signal indicating a state of the optical storage system. The throughput rate detector generates a control signal in response to the indicatory signal. The clock generator generates the clock at the clock rate in response to the control signal. The clock rate determined by the clock rate adjustment apparatus may be adjusted dynamically in response to a required minimum clock rate and a variable data rate.
