Abstract

See full text

A calibration of input signal offset in an optical disk drive is presented. The input signal offsets the input signals received from an optical pick-up unit before digitization. In some embodiments, the input signal offset is set such that the digitized input signals are zero when laser power is off. Further, a thermal drift correction is presented.
