1. iD PHOTO DISC
1-1. iD PHOTO DISC HIGH-DENSITY TECHNOLOGY
The iD Photo Disc has a diameter of 5 centimeters and yet it
can store up to 730MB of information. A laser pulse magnetic
field modulation recording method and CAD-type ultra-high
magnetic resolution method have been used to record data
at a track pitch of 0.6 µm and an extremely short mark length
of 0.235 µ, which is smaller than the spot diameter of the
laser beam.
1-2. LASER PULSE MAGNETIC FIELD MODULA TION
RECORDING METHOD
The beam which is generated by the laser pickup in the iD
Photo disc drive focuses onto the disc recording medium as
a spot with a diameter of about 1 µm. During recording, a
mark with a diameter of 0.235 µm -- which is smaller than the
diameter of the laser beam spot-- is recorded. A “laser pulse
magnetic field modulation” recording method has been
adopted in order to achieve this. This recording method involves firstly a magnetic head which applies a magnetic field
which is modulated in accordance with the data supplied externally which is to be recorded. In this state, the laser beam
is directed to the reverse side of the disc. The radiated light
within an 0.6 µm-diameter area at the center of the beam
spot is momentarily heated to a temperature of around 200
degrees. The data is then recorded by means of the resulting
change in the magnetic polarity of the recording layer. The
recording mark which is made by this pulse-type laser beam
is accurately formed in the track at a diameter of 0.6 µm. The
rotation of the disc causes each recording mark to overlap
the preceding mark at a point 0.235 µm forward of the preceding mark. As a result, the circles formed according to the
state of the laser beam move along and leaves a continuous
series of minute crescent-shaped marks 0.235 µm across.
These marks are approximately one-quarter the size of the
recording marks which are made on other media such as CDs
and MOs. The iD Photo disc is a magneto-optical disc which
records data uses the principle of applying magnetism and
temperature sumultaneously so that the recording medium
can maintain its magnetic polarity. Because of this, the data
cannnot be erased simply by placing the disc within a magnetic field, and moreover the recording method does not result in any changes to the physical nature of the disc. This
means that stable characteristics can be maintained for respected disc writing operations.

1-3. CAD ULTRA-HIGH MAGNETIC RESOLUTION
METHOD
In order to play back the extremely small marks which have
been recorded using laser pulse magnetic field modulation,
the iD Photo disc uses a ultra-high magnetic resolution
method which incorporates CAD (Center Aperture Detection).
Ultra-high magnetic resolution is a form of technology in which
a magnetic signal taken from only the center of the spot is
extracted for playback. The iD Photo disc has a multi-layered structure which comprises a polycarbonate substrate,
upon which is the playback layer with magnetic characteristics, a recording layer which stores the data, and finally a
heat dispersion layer which rapidly allows the spot which has
been heated by the laser beam to cool. When data is played
back from the disc, the laser beam which is generated by the
pickup passes through the polycarbonate substrate to reach
the playback layer, and focuses on a 1-µm spot. This playback layer functions as a screen to shield the recording layer
on which the data is recorded from the laser beam, so that
only a 0.6 µm diameter area at the center of the laser beam
which reaches the playback layer passes through it and is
projected onto the magnetic recording area of the recording
layer by means of an increase in temperature (window). The
recorded data can be picked up and read through this “window”, and the surrounding area is shielded. Moreover, in general the spacing between the tracks is narrow and so signal
interference from tracks which are next to the track being read
can occur. However, CAD-type ultra- high magnetic resolution also solves this interference problem. With CAD-type ultra-high magnetic resolution, only the magnetic signal which
passes throught the window at the center of the beam spot is
read, so that the playback reading area can be restricted to a
very narrow area not only in the tracking direction, but also in
the transverse direction. As a result, signal interference is
suppressed, and the spacing between the tracks can also be
made smaller.

1-4. PRML SIGNAL PROCESSING
When the data on the iD Photo disc is read, the 0.235 µm
overlapping recording marks which are made during laser
pulse magnetic field modulation recording are read through
an 0.6 µm window by means of a CAD-type ultra-high magnetic resolution reading method. Because this window has a
diameter of 0.6 µm, at least two or three recording marks can
be viewed through this window at any given time. With the iDPhoto disc, PRML signal processing has been adopted as
the signal processing method for this readable area. PRML
signal processing compares the signal wave pattern which is
detected when recording marks with several different pattern
types pass by the window with the signal wave pattern which
is actually obtained by the pickup in order to recreate the
data which has actually been recorded. This technology makes
it possible to accurately reproduce the recording marks which
are smaller than the window being used to read them, and if
a signal pattern which is not valid is read, then it is handled
as an error. In this way, recording and playback of data at
high densities can be couple with high data reliability.
1-5. ZCLV METHOD OF ROTATION CONTROL
A ZCLV (Zoned Constant Linear Velocity) method of rotation
control has been adopted for the iD Photo disc. The ZCLV
method increases the disc rotation speed on a zone basis in
accordance with the progression toward the center of the disc
as the speed of rotation of the disc recording surface with
respect to the pickup becomes progressively slower. The iDPhoto disc is devided into 12 bands from the outside to the
inside of the disc surface, and the rotation speed within each
band is varied within a range of 1900-3100 rpm in order to
maintain the speed of rotation of the recording surface with
respect to the pickup to a level of about 5 meters per second.
1-6. EXTERNAL CLOCK SIGNAL
The iD Photo disc uses an external clock method to gener-
ate the clock pulses which are used to regulate the timing for
reading and writing of data. With conventional methods, the
clock pulse is generated based on changes in the data being
read. However, with this external clock method, an FCM (Fine
Clock Mark) signal is created beforehand and recorded onto
the disc for use as a reference signal in order to generate the
clock pulse. The timing of this FCM signal is monitored during reading of data in order to control the oscillation frequency
of the clock signal generator in accordance with the rotation
of the disc. The Fine Clock Mark is engraved accurately onto
the disc when the disc is manufactured, and it can then be
used as an accurate reference for stable reading and writing.

1. Fine clock mark (FCM)
A computation ((A+B)–(C+D)) is carried out on the signals
from the photosensor, after which they pass through the VCA
circuit (IC853) and LPF circuit, and then the FCM signal amplitudes pass through the peak hold and bottom hold circuits
and are input to the DSP of the ASIC (IC402), where A/D
conversion is carried out. At the DSP of the ASIC (IC402), the
D/A value of the signal (FCLKGC) which has had the control
voltage adjusted by the VCA (IC853) is changed so that the
FCM level is set to the level which is necessary for the
FCLKNP and FCLKPP signals to be generated. Furthermore,
DSP of the ASIC (IC402) and the above circuits set the slice
level to 50 % - 70 % of the +/– side FCM marks so that the
comparator (IC852) (FCLKPP and FCLKNP) singals do not
delay the transfer of the address signals. The above circuits
adjust the signals so that the FCM amplitude is at about the
same level when at the default recording and playback power.
Furthermore, a ratio of 60 % or more between the + side and
the – side of the FCM signal is necessary when LAND is on
and when GROOVE is on. The DSP controls the control potential of the VCA (IC853) so that the Vpp of the FCM signal
is about TYP 1.7 Vp-p. Furthermore, the signal interval for
the FCM signals is 532 x 50 ns = 26.6 µs.

FCM and address signals.

These circuits use the amplitude modulation of the FCM signal to hold the peak level and the bottom level of the FCM
signal at the capacity which is connected to the transistor

TA6015F (optical disc power control (LPC): IC841) and
TA6012F (optical disc high speed APC) are used in the pairs.
An APC IC appears on the pickup. LPC (IC841) control makes
it possible to set characteristics such as playback power, recording peak power, duty, laser on/off setting and low power
consumption standby mode using the register settings of the
LPC (IC841).
3. BLOCK DIAGRAM OF PLAY/REC AND SIGNAL PROCESS etc.
APC IC (on the pickup)
The APC IC functions to maintain the current detected by the
photosensor attached to the laser to a constant level. This
has the effect of canceling any fluctuations in characteristics
resulting from the semiconductor laser temparature, and any
variances in production lots, so that the laser power can be
maintained at a stable level. The ON/OFF laser high-frequency
currents, power save and laser are output open corrector from
LPC IC, and input to APC IC.
Superimposing high-frequency currents
When a high-output semiconductor laser is used, interference
can be generated from the light which is reflected back from
the disc. Because of this, high-frequency currents of 300-600
MHz are superimposed on the laser drive currnet to reduce
interference.

1. Playback clock by PLL
The playback clock (20 MHz) which is generated from the
FCLKPP/FCLKNP signals (see Fig. 7) obtained from the FCM
is played back. The spindle motor operation is controlled by
CL V (constant linear velocity) to provide a constant FCM cycle
(26.6 µs). Accodingly, the rotation becomes faster as tracking
moves toward the center of the disc.
3. IC902, IC904, IC908 (H Driver) and IC907 (V Driver)
An H driver and V driver are necessary in order to generate
the clocks (vertical transfer clock, horizontal transfer clock
and electronic shutter clock) which driver the CCD.
IC902, IC904 and IC908 are inverter IC which drives the horizontal CCDs (H1 and H2). In addition the XV1-XV3 signals
which are output from IC102 are the vertical transfer clocks,
and the XSG1 and XSG signal which is output from IC102 is
superimposed onto XV2A and XV2B at IC907 in order to generate a ternary pulse. In addition, the XSUB signal which is
output from IC102 is used as the sweep pulse for the electronic shutter, and the RG signal which is output from IC102
is the reset gate clock.

from the XSHP and XSHD pulses, and it is here that CDS
(correlated double sampling) is carried out.
After passing through the CDS circuit, the signal passes
through the AGC amplifier. It is A/C converted internally into
a 10-bit signal, and is then input to IC102 of the CA2 circuit
board. The gain of the AGC amplifier is controlled by serial
data which is output from IC102 of the CA2 circuit board.

5. Transfer of Electric Charge by the Horizontal CCD
The transfer system for the horizontal CCD emplays a 2-phase drive method.
The electric charges sent to the final stage of the horizontal CCD are transferred to the floating diffusion, as shown in Fig. 1-6.
RG is turned on by the timing in (1), and the floating diffusion is charged to the potential of PD. The RG is turned off by the timing
in (2). In this condition, the floating diffusion is floated at high impedance. The H1 potential becomes shallow by the timing in (3),
and the electric charge now moves to the floating diffusion.
Here, the electric charges are converted into voltages at the rate of V = Q/C by the equivalent capacitance C of the floating
diffusion. RG is then turned on again by the timing in (1) when the H1 potential becomes deep.
Thus, the potential of the floating diffusion changes in proportion to the quantity of transferred electric charge, and becomes
CCD output after being received by the source follower. The equivalent circuit for the output circuit is shown in Fig. 1-7.

1-2. Camera signal processor
This comprises circuits such as the digial clamp circuit, white

1. Digital clamp circuit
The optical black section of the CCD extracts 16-pixel averaged values from the subsequent data to make the black level
of the CCD output data uniform for each line. The 16-pixel
averaged value for each line is taken as the sum of the value
for the previous line multiplied by the coefficient k and the
value for the current line multiplied by the coefficient 1-k.
2. White balance circuit
This circuit controls the white balance by using the A WB judgement value computed by the CPU to control the gain for each
R, G and B pixel based on the CCD data which has been
read.
3. γ circuit

a linear relat ionship b etween the light i nput to the camer a
and the light output from the picture screen.

the microphone to 8-bit digital signals.
1-9. 8-bit A/D circuit (Audio)

8-bit A/D circuit are temporarily to a sound buffer and then
recorded in the SSFDC card. During playback, the 8-bit D/A
circuit converts these signals into analog audio signals.

1-11. LCD driver
The Y/C signals which are input to the LCD driver are converted to RGB signals, and the timing signal which is necessary for LCD monitor display and the RGB signals are then
supplied to the LCD monitor.
1-12. LCD monitor
This is the image display device which displays the image
signals supplied from the LCD driver.
1-13. UART
This circuit is used for transmitting serial data to a PC. The
interface is RS-232C-compatible.
1-14. MJPEG compression
Still and continuous frame data is converted to JPEG format,
and movie images are compressed and expanded in MJPEG
format.
2. Outline of Operation
When the shutter opens, the reset signals, TEST0, TEST1
and the serial signals (“take a picture” commands) from the
8-bit microprocessor are input and record operation starts.
When the TG drives the CCD, picture data passes through
the A/D and is then input to the ASIC as 10-bit data. This data
then passes through the DCLP, AWB, shutter and γ circuit,
after which it is input to the SDRAM. The AWB, shutter, γ,
and AGC value are computed from this data, and in case of
1-4 times exposures are made to obtain the optimum picture.
The data which has already been stored in the SDRAM is
read by the CPU and color generation is carried out. Each
pixel is interpolated from the surrounding data as being either R, G or B primary color data to produce R, G and B data.
At this time, correction of the lens distortion which is a characteristic of wide-angle lenses is carried out. Aperture correction is carried out, and in case of still picture the data is
then compressed by the JPEG method and in case of picture
it is compressed by MJPEG method and is transfered to MC3
block. And then it is written to iD photo disc. When the data is
to be output to an external device, it is read JPEG picture
data from the iD photo disc and output to PC via the USB or
IEEE1394.

3. LCD Block
During EE, gamma conversion is carried out for the 10-bit
RGB data which is input from the A/D conversion block of the
CCD to the ASIC in order that the γrevised can be displayed
on the video. The YUV of 640 x 480 is then transferred to the
SVRAM.
The data which has accumulated in the SDRAM is after D/A
conversion is carried out by SDRAM control circuit inside the
ASIC, makes Y/C signal, the data is sent to the LCD panel
and displayed.
If the shutter button is pressed in this condition, the 10-bit
data which is output from the A/D conversion block of the
CCD is sent to the SDRAM (DMA transfer), and is displayed
on the LCD as a freeze-frame image.
During playback, the JPEG image data which has accumulated in the iD photo disc is converted to RGB signals. In the
same way as for EE, the data is then sent to the SDRAM,
after which D/A conversion is carried out inside the ASIC,
and then the data is sent to the LCD panel and displayed.
The LCD driver is converted Y/C signals to RGB signals from
ASIC, and these RGB signals and the control signal which is
output by the LCD driver are used to drive the LCD panel.
The RGB signals are 1H transposed so that no DC component is present in the LCD element, and the two horizontal
shift register clocks drive the horizontal shift registers inside
the LCD panel so that the 1H transposed RGB signals are
applied to the LCD panel.
Because the LCD closes more as the difference in potential
between the VCOM (common polar voltage: fixed at DC) and
the R, G and B signals becomes greater, the display becomes
darker; if the difference in potential is smaller, the element
opens and the LCD become brighter. In addition, the brightness and contrast settings for the LCD can be varied by means
of the serial data from the ASIC.
