The FG signal is a detection signal for coarse adjust-ment used at time of motor start-up, while the BD signal is a detection signal used to fine-adjust the motor to the target speed.The motor control mechanism operates as follows:1) The DC controller turns on the ACC signal, thus causing the scanner motor to rotate.2) The DC controller uses the result of FG signal detection to control the ACC signal and the DEC signal so that the motor will rotate at a specific speed.3) The DC controller switches from the FG signal to the BD signal; then, using the result of BD signal detection, controls the ACC signal and the DEC signalso that the motor will continuously rotate at the target speed.Laser Driver IC5VPDLDLC_CTL_P3(1)LC_CTL_P3(0)D-CONLaserRelayPCBCBk- Laser DriverLaser Driver IC5VPDLDLC_CTL_P4(1)LC_CTL_P4(0)
