  • Magnetic media and servo synchronization method
    Patent number: 5177651
    Abstract: A flexible data disk has consecutive servo tracks having a synchronization and alternate synchronization mark. The synchronization and alternate synchronization marks in each servo sector are radially aligned. Four magnetic pulses represent a synchronization mark and two magnetic pulses represent an alternate synchronization mark. The disk drive system will read and identify the synchronization marks and alternate synchronization marks and start generating timing pulses as appropriate. The servo bursts can then be read allowing the disk drive system to center the transducer head over the data tracks.
