ABSTRACT:
A single laser beam emitted from a laser generator driven by a laser driver in a record mode is alternately switched between a recording beam with large power and a tracking beam with small power. The switched beam is focused onto an optical disc through a laser beam transmitting section and then is reflected from the optical disc. The reflected laser beam from the optical disc is received by a pair of photo detecting elements in a two-divided way. Pulsate signal components with peaks corresponding to the recording beam contained in the output signals produced from the photo detecting elements are removed by sample-hold circuits in a wave-shaping section. A level difference between the output signals from the wave-shaping section is detected by a differential amplifier. The output signal from the differential amplifier, that is, a tracking control signal, drives a drive section to move an optical head.
