Abstract
A spindle servo circuit controls the rotation of a disc-driving spindle motor based on absolute address information taken from a disc. Reproduction digital data is written to and read from a RAM. An address control circuit generates a write address of the RAM by counting clocks synchronized with the reproduction digital data by a first counter, and generates a read address of the RAM by counting reference clocks by a second counter. A jitter correction circuit produces jitter-removed reproduction digital data from the RAM. The address control circuit is reset so that the address margin of the RAM is maximized when the spindle servo circuit is locked.
