ABSTRACT:
A transducer access control system for use in a disk recording/reproducing apparatus for moving a transducer a required distance from its present position over a disk in the radial direction thereof, includes a linear motor for driving the transducer, a circuit for generating a distance signal indicative of the required distance for moving the transducer, and a calculator for calculating a half distance which is a half of the required distance. To move the transducer for the required distance D, the linear motor is operated at the velocity controlled in accordance with a reference velocity signal produced from a reference velocity generator. The reference velocity is determined such that, the reference velocity is maintained at a predetermined value during the movement of the transducer in the first half of the required distance, and gradually decreases during the movement of the transducer in the second half of the required distance.
