For both cases, and approximate two-byte
cushion is maintained from the beginning of the
sync field for the purposes of avoiding write
splices in the presence of motor speed variation.
For the Write Data case, the FDC activates
Write Gate at the beginning of the sync field
under the conventional mode.
then writes a new sync field, data address mark,
data field, and CRC as shown on page 57. With
the pre-erase head of the perpendicular drive,
the write head must be activated in the Gap2
field to insure a proper write of the new sync
field.
(WGATE = 1, GAP = 1), 38 bytes will be written
in the Gap2 space. Since the bit density is
proportional to the data rate, 19 bytes will be
written in the Gap2 field for the 500 Kbps
perpendicular mode (WGATE = 1, GAP =0).
It should be noted that none of the alterations in
Gap2 size, VCO timing, or Write Gate timing
affect normal program flow.
