    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an LED lamp base and an LED bulb. The LED lamp base comprises a housing, a printed circuit board, and a common mode coil. The common mode coil is disposed on the PCB. A first groove and a second groove are configured in an inner wall of the housing. A first end of the PCB is slid in the first groove, and a second end of the PCB is slid in the second groove. A thickness of the first groove and a thickness of the second groove are matched with a thickness of the PCB. By configuring the common mode coil in the LED lamp base, the impact of a change in the inductance coefficient may be avoided, thus ensuring an ability of the common mode coil in reducing the electromagnetic interference.

    Abstract: A disk drive is disclosed comprising a disk comprising a plurality of servo tracks defined by servo sectors recorded around the circumference of the disk at a servo sampling frequency, and a servo control system operable to actuate a head over the disk by generating a control signal applied to an actuator. A first sinusoid is injected into the servo control system and a first DC component (dc1) is measured in the control signal. A second sinusoid is injected into the servo control system and a second DC component (dc2) is measured in the control signal, wherein the second sinusoid comprises a phase offset from the first sinusoid. A resonance mode of the servo control system is measured based on dc1 and dc2.

  • Patent number: 8970979
    Abstract: A disk drive is disclosed comprising a servo control system configured to control an actuator for actuating a head over a disk. Servo sectors are sampled at a servo sample frequency fs to generate a position error signal PES(k) that is filtered with a compensator to generate a first control signal u1(k). A first discrete-time sinusoid comprising a sinusoid frequency of fs+?f is added to the first control signal u1(k) to generate a second control signal u2(k). The second control signal u2(k) is applied to the actuator, and a frequency response of the actuator is determined at the frequency |?f|. The frequency response of the actuator is determined at the frequency fs+?f based at least in part on the frequency response of the actuator at the frequency |?f| and a measured signal of the servo control system when applying the second control signal u2(k) to the actuator.

    Abstract: A disk drive is disclosed comprising a head and a disk comprising a plurality of servo tracks, wherein each servo track comprises a plurality of servo sectors. The disk drive further comprises control circuitry comprising a servo control system operable to actuate the head over the disk in response to the servo sectors. The disk is rotated at a first speed and the servo sectors are read at a first servo sample frequency to generate first servo samples. The disk is rotated at a second speed different from the first speed and the servo sectors are read at a second servo sample frequency to generate second servo samples. The second servo samples are processed to measure a frequency response of the servo control system proximate the first servo sample frequency.
