ABSTRACT:
In an optical data recording and reproducing apparatus comprising an information signal generator, a sample/hold switching signal generator, a write/read switching signal generator, a laser beam source, a reference voltage generator, a comparator and a photo detector, a dummy signal is added to the information signal modulating the laser beam or generation of the laser beam is forcedly stopped after a data write servo mode so as to prevent generation of the laser beam of an excessively high level at the time of change-over from the data write servo mode to a data write hold mode or from the data write hold mode to a data read mode, or the level of the write/read switching signal is changed before the level of the sample/hold switching signal is changed at the time of change-over from the data write hold mode to the data read mode, or the duration of emission of the laser beam is extended slightly before the level of the sample/hold switching signal is changed.
