    Abstract: A disk head position control system having a disk head controller that moves a disk head relative to a surface of a magnetic media disk encoded with a plurality of tracks of a quadrature burst pattern includes a burst pattern that comprises an asynchronous, multi-frequency track address code having burst pattern transitions that extend across the width of a track and are arranged in staggered fashion in alternate tracks such that no transitions between adjacent tracks are aligned in the disk radial direction.

    Abstract: A digital servo control system for a disk drive provides asynchronous servo information signal demodulation. The system includes a digital demodulator having a digital squarer 164 that removes any phase component of the digitized servo information signal and includes a burst signal accumulator 168 that accumulates the squared terms according to respective burst timing intervals to produce a digital, quadrature position error signal (PES). The demodulator also can include a filter 154 comprising a harmonic notch filter preferably implemented as a Hilbert Transform filter. In another embodiment the demodulator does not include a filter and squarer and, instead, the squarer comprises a sum-and-squarer that sums the squares of odd and even digitized samples. A split burst servo pattern for the servo control system is comprised of half-width transitions that can be written in a single pass of a recording head and therefore has no phase misalignment between adjacent flux patterns.
