Abstract

To reduce power consumption of an information storage device, a control circuit for the information storage device stops the supply of a formatter clock or an ECC unit clock simultaneously with a seek operation. When a clock stop time has elapsed by the time obtained by subtracting at least a time required for restarting the formatter or the ECC unit from a seek time, the control circuit restarts the supply of the formatter clock or the ECC unit clock.
