ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatus are provided for simultaneously reading data from multiple tracks of an optical disk at a high rate. Circuitry is provided for use with a detector matrix to read and buffer data in parallel from the multiple adjacent tracks, while asynchronously providing processed data to a host processor. Circuitry is also provided for electronic tracking of tracks on the optical disk and for reducing cross-talk between adjacent tracks. Circuitry is further provided for correcting phase errors resulting from variations in the linear velocity of the tracks being read, depending upon the radial position of the tracks.
