ABSTRACT:
A magnetic or optical disc device that can correctly follow the eccentricity of an eccentrically chucked disc operates with a disc having data tracks provided with uniformly spaced clock marks for providing a timing standard and includes a reproduction head mounted on a turnable arm arranged for movement relative to the disc and a head traveling radial position detector attached to the arm that detects the rotational angle and produces a head position signal. A home index signal is detected and used along with the radial position signal and a derived clock signal to measure eccentricity magnitude that is stored in a memory and subsequently accessed for use in generating a control signal for a phase lock loop that provides an eccentricity adjusted clock signal.
