Abstract: A disk drive, method of producing the same, and disk drive controller are provided with little increase of cost at an improved yield. An HDC (20) find s the current position of a head (2) to perform track following control based on the reproduction output of a servosector from a channel (5) and performs computation about servo data by using an integration parameter corresponding to the target track which is read and stored in a RAM (1) and the current position of the head (2).

Abstract: An FPC cable which is excellent in noise resisting property, manufacturing cost, mounting operability to a carriage, and maintenance. The FPC cable includes a spacer and a reinforcing plate. In the patterned surface of the FPC, a head pad to which a head wire is bonded is formed on a pad forming portion and a preamplifier chip is mounted on a device mounting portion. Wiring patterns are linearly connected between the head pad and the preamplifier chip and between the preamplifier chip and an I/O-side end portion, respectively. In the spacer, a cavity is formed for storing the preamplifier chip. The reinforcing plate is inserted into the space formed by folding back the pad forming portion, and the spacer is engaged with the device mounting device, thereby constituting a magnetic-head-side end portion.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve a problem that, when a ceramic ball is used as a rolling body of a bearing used in bearing mechanism, an unstable factor such as excessive preload and preload loss is caused so that working temperature condition is limited, since a ceramic member has a low linear expansion coefficient against the other member, although it is desired to use ceramic for durability and vibration resistance. SOLUTION: With respect to a shaft 34 (stainless steel) for retaining inner rings 33a, 34a of a pair of bearings 33, 34, a sleeve 40 (aluminum) is formed of a member having a high linear expansion coefficient to retain outer rings 33b. A change rate of a temperature of a distance X between the outer rings 33b is made to be higher than that of a distance Y between the inner rings 33a, 34a, so that difference of change in dimension of the inner rings 33a, 34b, outer rings 33b, and a rolling body is compensated by difference of change in dimension of a distance between the bearings.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a disk clamp hardly causing a dislocation on the data positions in a recording track and letting the distribution of the data positions concentrate near a central position even after a temperature cycle is implemented. SOLUTION: The material used for forming a top clamp 31 and a hub 23 is physically stable in all the temperature region in which this information recording disk device is assumed to be used and has such an elastic coefficient that the fastening force required to fix a recording disk 17 when the information recording disk device is used is available from the fastening force for fixing screws 22. The material of at least one of the top clamp 31 and the hub 23 has a coefficient of thermal expansion close to that of the recording disk 17.
