Abstract
An intelligent layer jump method applied when an optical disc drive accesses a disc. The disc has a central reference point, at least a first recoding layer and a second recoding layer. The first recoding layer has a plurality of first tracks, while the second recoding layer has a plurality of second tracks. Firstly, a laser beam of the optical disc drive is focused on the first recoding layer to form a focal point and obtain an original position. Then, the relative position between an original position and a target position positioned on the second recoding layer are compared to determine a layer jump and track seeking path of the focal point. Lastly, the focal point is shifted from the original position to the target position according to the predetermined layer jump and track seeking path.
