Abstract

An apparatus for reproducing data from the optical disk at a constant linear velocity includes a specified rotation speed detection module which decides whether or not the optical disk is rotating at a specified rotation speed. A linear velocity calculation module arithmetically determines the linear velocity by measuring a time taken for a complete rotation of the optical disk at a start position of a data area on the optical disk when the optical disk is detected as rotating at a specified rotation speed.
