Abstract
In a magnetic disk apparatus, the integral value of position information representing the current position of a magnetic head is obtained from address code data corresponding to a cylinder number recorded on a disk. The decimal value of the position information is computed from the level values of burst data recorded on the disk. The moving speed value of the magnetic head and a remaining distance are calculated on the basis of the position information having the obtained integral and decimal values. Two target speed values are extracted from a speed table in accordance with the remaining distance, and an intermediate value between the two target speed values is approximately computed. With this operation, a more accurate target speed value corresponding to the remaining distance is obtained.
