ABSTRACT:
In an apparatus for controlling a moving speed of a magnetic head, servo data previously recorded on a recording medium is read out during the movement of the magnetic head. A moving speed value of the magnetic head is computed on the basis of position data (representing the current position of the magnetic head) produced from the read out servo data, and a target speed value corresponding to a distance between the current position of the magnetic head and target track position is computed. The moving speed value is subtracted from the target speed value to obtain a differential speed value. The speed of the magnetic head is thus controlled in accordance with whether the differential speed value is positive or negative. Further, a target speed value corresponding to the elapsed time from the start of the movement of the magnetic head is computed, and the moving speed value is subtracted from the target speed value to obtain a differential speed value. The speed of the magnetic head is thus controlled based on the two differential speed values.
