Abstract

A rotation control device causes a disc on which information and sync signals are recorded to rotate at a predetermined speed. The control device includes a generator for generating a signal whose frequency is identical with that of a rotation signal which will be output from a frequency generator while the disc rotates at the predetermined speed. A control loop is defined which compares a phase of an output of the signal generator and a rotation signal output from the frequency generator, thereby controlling the drive of the motor.
