Abstract
Description
【Technical field】
[0001] The invention relates to an improved method and system for magnetic head unloading of a disk drive. During the sudden unloading process of the magnetic head, its motor control system controls the speed of the magnetic head by controlling the actuator. 【technical background】
[0002] Disk drives used in portable or battery-powered devices are always affected by changes in their power supply systems, such as sudden loss of power supply or power failure. When this happens, the head will crash against the disk, causing damage to both the read and write heads and the disk. To this end, the industry has introduced dynamic head unloading technology. If this technology is applied to the magnetic head, the unloading operation will be successfully performed without the above-mentioned destructive impact. In US Patent No. 4933785 "Disk Drive Applied with Dynamic Head Loading / Unloading Technology", such a head unloading method is proposed, which uses a rotatin...
