  • Patent number: 7515511
    Abstract: An optical disk drive system with quasi-parallel tasking comprises a decode/interface module, a servo control module and a procedure switch module. The decode/interface module receives and decodes at least one instruction to generate at least one corresponding procedure state. The servo control module generates at least one command according to the procedure state. The procedure switch module switches between the decode/interface module and the servo control module according to a received break signal. Furthermore, a servo control method is disclosed and comprises the following steps of: performing a decode/interface procedure for receiving and decoding at least one instruction to generate at least one corresponding procedure state; performing a servo control procedure for generating at least one command according to the procedure state; performing a break procedure for switching between the decode/interface procedure and the servo control procedure according to a received break signal.

  • Patent number: 7508776
    Abstract: A controlling method and device for data transmission including the steps of providing a system bus for connecting a first transmission channel and a second transmission channel with a command processor, adjusting a transmitting direction of the system bus according to a transmitting direction of the second transmission channel, and proceeding the data processing procedures of the second transmission channel, wherein parts of data processing procedures of the first transmission channel will last during a interval between the system bus adjusting the transmitting direction and the data processing procedures of the second transmission channel start on. The present invention ensure that the independence between every data caching and processing reduces the times of flushing the cached data from the data transmission channel and re-seeking through the source, shortening the transmission time, increasing facileness and improving the efficiency of the data transmission.
