Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
134 words
A digital disc reproduction system comprising: disc reproducing means for driving a disc and reading information from the disc; signal processing means for processing the information read from the disc by the disc reproducing means to obtain signals and for supplying control signals to the disc reproducing means in order to servo control the disc reproducing means; clock generator means for generating a plurality of different frequency clocks; and means for selecting and supplying one of the different frequency clocks to the signal processing means; and wherein the signal processing means includes a signal amplifier means for amplifying signals obtained by the disc reproducing means, said signal amplifier means including feedback circuit means for determining the frequency band characteristic of said signal amplifier means with the selected clock generated by the clock generator means.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
134 words
