ABSTRACT:
A read-out information signal read out from an optical disk carrier is digitized, thereby detecting an amplitude of an absolute value of a phase error between the read-out information signal and a synchronized clock signal. The synchronized clock signal is obtained by using a phase locked loop constituted by a phase detector having two outputs, that is, a phase lead and a phase lag, and a VCO operating at an average value of a differential signal representing a difference between the two outputs. A phase error amplitude is detected from a sum signal representing a sum of the two outputs of this phase detector. By appropriately displacing a focus actuator in a state where a focus control is performed, an offset compensation amount where the phase error amplitude becomes minimum is obtained.
