Claims
- 1. Apparatus for reproducing a plurality of data stored on a disc, the plurality of disc data being classified into at least one of a first type data and a second type data, the apparatus comprising:
- means for designating information data to be read among the plurality of disc data and for designating one of the first and second types of data;
- a disc motor for rotating the disc;
- a pickup for reading disc data designated by the designating means;
- a first clock generator for generating a first clock responsive to the disc data read from the disc;
- a second clock deriving circuit for deriving a second clock from the first clock by a thinning-out process of the first clock;
- an oscillator for supplying a constant clock at a predetermined frequency;
- a selector for selecting one of the second clock and the constant clock and for outputting the selected clock as a reference clock;
- a first divider for dividing the first clock to generate a first frame clock;
- a second divider for dividing the reference clock to generate a second frame clock;
- a buffer memory for storing disc data read from the disc;
- memory controlling means for controlling a writing operation to the buffer memory in response to the first frame clock and for controlling a reading operation from the buffer memory in response to the second frame clock;
- when the designated disc data is the first type data, the selector selects the second clock as the reference clock, and when the designated disc data is the second type data, the selector selects the constant clock as the reference clock.
- 2. The apparatus according to claim 1 wherein the first type data includes ROM data and the second type data includes audio data.
- 3. The apparatus according to claim 1 wherein the second clock deriving circuit comprises:
- a derivation controlling circuit for controlling a derivation of the second clock by the second clock deriving circuit according to an amount of data stored in the buffer memory when the designated disc data is the first type data,
- the derivation controlling circuit increasing a thinning-out amount when the amount of stored data is less than a first predetermined value, and the derivation controlling circuit decreasing the thinning-out amount when the amount of stored data is larger than a second predetermined value, so that a frequency of the second clock is controlled in accordance with the amount of stored data.
- 4. The apparatus according to claim 3, further comprising:
- a detector to detect a frequency of the first clock in accordance with the constant clock; and
- a determining circuit to determine the demodulated data as invalid when the detected frequency is out of a predetermined range.
- 5. The apparatus according to claim 4 wherein the determining means including:
- means for storing the predetermined range.
- 6. Apparatus for reproducing a plurality of data stored on a disc, the plurality of disc data being classified into at least one of a first type data and a second type data, the apparatus comprising:
- means for designating information data to be read among the plurality of disc data and for designating one of the first and second types of data;
- a disc motor for rotating the disc;
- a pickup for reading disc data designated by the designating means;
- a first clock generator for generating a first clock responsive to the disc data read from the disc;
- a second clock deriving circuit for deriving a second clock from the first clock;
- an oscillator for supplying a constant clock at a predetermined frequency;
- a selector for selecting one of the second clock and the constant clock and for outputting the selected clock as a reference clock;
- a first divider for dividing the first clock to generate a first frame clock;
- a second divider for dividing the reference clock to generate a second frame clock;
- a buffer memory for storing disc data read from the disc; and
- memory controlling means for controlling a writing operation to the buffer memory in response to the first frame clock and for controlling reading operation from the buffer memory in response to the second frame clock, when the designated disc data is the first type data, the selector selects the second clock as the reference clock, and when the designated disc data is the second type data, the selector selects the constant clock as the reference clock;
- wherein the second clock deriving circuit derives the second clock by a thinning-out process of the first clock when the amount of stored data is less than a first predetermined value, and the second clock deriving circuit derives the second clock by a passing through process of the first clock when the amount of stored data is larger than a second predetermined value, so that a frequency of the second clock is controlled in accordance with the amount of stored data.
- 7. The apparatus according to claim 1-6 wherein the rate of the first clock and the constant clock are 48/49, and the second clock is obtained by thinning out a pulse at a rate of one bit in 49 bits of the clock.
