Abstract
An optical disk reproducing device has a spindle servo control in which when a focusing error or a tracking error occurs, the spindle control voltage immediately before the error occurred is detected and stored in a memory. During the spindle servo is being off, the spindle control voltage is retrieved from the memory and applied to the spindle motor. Because the spindle motor is rotating at a speed corresponding to the track now being traced during the spindle servo off period, the spindle servo can be established quickly.
