Abstract
A servo control arrangement for an optical scanner for focusing a light beam onto a recording medium or for guiding the light beam along data tracks of the recording medium. Light reflected from the recording medium is directed onto a plurality of photodiodes which are connected to a differential amplifier. The amplifier takes differences of the output signals from the photodiodes to generate a servo signal having superimposed high frequency noise components from data recorded on the recording medium. The high frequency noise components are eliminated by short circuiting through a capacitor connected between the inputs of the differential amplifier, whereby the inputs of the differential amplifier become free of the high frequency noise components.
