Abstract: A programmable external storage control apparatus is provided which requires minimum intervention of a microprocessor and has more extendibility and flexibility. It includes a buffer (16) which stores a data transfer control program in addition to data to be transferred between a host (10) and an external storage (14), a controller (18) which reads from the buffer (16) and executes the data transfer control programs, and a microprocessor (20) which starts reading of the program from the buffer (16) to the controller (18) in response to a command from the host (10). The controller (18) controls data transfer between the host and the external storage independently of the microprocessor (20) while the microprocessor (20) may execute other jobs.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To effectively perform disturbance suppression, mechanical resonance suppression by providing plural filter means and constituting the filter means in multistage with a parallel or serial form for a position control output with instructions of an MPU when an actuator is position controlled. SOLUTION: A servo control part SV 21 receives a signal from a servo pattern of a magnetic disk 1 to process it, and generates a servo signal output DACOUT moving a head arm 3 through a hardware sequencer SA 23 to send it to a voice coil motor VCM drive part 6. The SA 23 consists of plural digital filters, and sets arrangement of respective digital filters for the servo signal output DACOUT based on the instructions from the MPU 40. For instance, peak filters are arranged serially, and a peak is given to an output gain at a required frequency. Or, notch filters are arranged parallel, and the output gain suppressing the mechanical resonance is obtained.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily change a microcode in a control element using a system LSI forming a DRAM in the same chip substrate without generating a production lead time and requiring the reevaluation of the LSI. SOLUTION: A semiconductor device 10 connecting its terminal 17 to an external serial ROM 11 is provided with a DRAM 14 formed on the same chip substrate, a comparator 20 for inputting data of one byte from the terminal 17 and comparing whether the data is 'FF' or '00' (both of which are hexadecimal numbers) or not and a selector 18 for selecting download from an internal serial mask ROM 19 when the compared result is true or selecting download from the external serial ROM 11 when the compared result is false. The downloaded program is recorded in the DRAM 14.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a reproduction control apparatus, a reproduction control method and a disk drive device, in which the reliability for data reproduction is enhanced. SOLUTION: When an error contained in reproduced data from maximum likelihood decoding section 24 is equal to or less than the error correction ability of an error correction system 10, data for which the error correction has been performed by holding, in a register 12, an error position and pattern determined by an error calculating section 11 are sequentially output. When an error exceeds the error correction cap ability, the data is re-read, and an output of a byte counter 7, which indicates the position of the reproduced data when a viterbi decoder error signal has been supplied, is supplied to the register 12, and the error correction is performed in accordance with the thus-supplied error position as well as the error pattern determined by the error calculating section 11.
