Final Inspection

“check” RECORDINGPLAYABILITY

• Physical check “full scan” of CD/DVD/BD stamper in less than 2 minutes:

▫ Roughness

▫ Thickness

▫ Flatness

▫ Cosmetic defects

Universal Stamper Checker (TS)

• Unbalance is caused by molding and/or print

• can lead to “playability” issues

Balance Analyzer Mk. 2

• All discs formats covered

• Stand-alone unit

• Results delivery in less than 10 sec.

• Not sensitive to external vibrations

• Shows vector of unbalance

1. Laser Spot Quality

Important:

• High Quality Optics

• Mechanical stability

• Reference Discs

• Reference Devices

• Stable environment

2. Mechanical conditions of drives

“Test Time”

• Scan of discs can be done in less than 10 min (depends on the disc format)

• Fully integrated PC with Video Playback function

• Write Recordable Reference Discs and make full tests afterwards

• DVD & BD Read/Write in one Drive

• available as IN-line and OFF-line desktop system

• Multiple Test Function

EWS DVD/BD drive “selection”

• Key to have reproduceable results

• Standardized tests to find out GOOD drives

• Parameters of interest time for the standard tests

LDC value (Long Distance Code) number of parity errors

on LDC codeword's per ECC block

BIS (Best Indication Subcode) number of parity errors on BIS

codeword's per ECC block

Behavior of the drive at a known defect

Jitter value (raw with no compensation)

Optical Media Early Warning System

• Drive selection - LDC diagram

Read out at 1x

At the known defect the drive reduces

the rotation speed, therefore the read

out rate drops down.

The LDC value shows the maximum

value. After the defect the LDC value

recovers.

GOOD drive

Optical Media Early Warning System

• Drive selection - LDC diagram

Read out at 1x

At the known defect the drive reduces

the rotation speed

The LDC value shows the maximum

value. After the defect the LDC value

does not recover.

BAD drive

Optical Media Early Warning System

• Drive selection - Elapsed test time

The detail table shows 2 different

tests performed on 4 drives. The

yellow highlighted values show

different elapsed times compared

to the results of drive 2-4.

Drive1 BAD

Optical Media Early Warning System• Max Read Speed of 8X

Increasing read speed

• The hardware limit is 3,4X.

The drive starts to rotate with 3,4X at radius of 24mm and keeps it constant over the whole disc

CAV-constant angular velocity

• The perimeter (s=2 r) at radius 24 is 150,8mm, at radius 58 it is 364,4mm

• This is 2,41 times longer than inside multiply by 3,4 we get the max Read speed of 8X
