The requirements herein are applicable to the purchase of new discs only, except where otherwise indicated. The disc is intended specifically for use with compact disc players employing read only memory laser technology and constant linear velocity. 2.0 APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS (Per latest revision on date of order): Digital Equipment Corporation: DEC-STD-092 Finish and Color Standard DEC-STD-102 Environmental Standard for Computers and Peripherals A-SP-RRD40-0-DBT RRD Test Disc Pattern Specifications A-PS-3030656-0-0 5.25 Inch, 600 Mbyte, CDROM Drive Purchase Specification ECMA: ECMA-130 Data Interchange on Read-Only 120 mm Optical Data Discs (CDROM), 1988 Military: MIL-STD-105 Sampling Procedures and Tables for Inspection by Attributes 3.0 REQUIREMENTS: Discs shall meet all ECMA-130 Specifications. In addition, discs manufactured for DIGITAL shall meet the following criteria: 3.1 Mechanical: 3.1.1 Disk Outer Edge Specification: The outside surface of the disc may be either beveled or cylindrical. If the outside surface of the disk is cylindrical, it must not contain a lip on the label edge of the disc, as shown in the following diagram: Label Side ------------------------------------ Center Hole | \ --------------------------------- \ Outer Edge Showing Lip If this lip is present, the disc may stick or jam in a DIGITAL drive during normal use. Disks can be tested for this condition by examining the outer edge with an appropriate tool to visually inspect for the presence or absence of a lip. If the labeled side is more than 30 microns larger in diameter than the unlabeled side, the disc shall be said to contain a lip. 3.2 Electrical: 3.2.1 Recording Format: DIGITAL shall use only the mode 1 recording format as specified in the ECMA-130 standard. 3.2.2 Maximum Bytes of Storage per Disc: Discs shall not be manufactured with more than 72 minutes of playing time. This translates into no more than 635 megabytes of digital data storage using mode 1 recording format. 3.3 Performance: Performance measurements are based on "as manufactured" quality, and do not include user induced errors. 3.3.1 Raw Error Rate on Manufactured Discs: The frame error rate as specified in ECMA-130, section 12.5.2, averaged over any 10 second interval, shall be less than 3 X 102. 3.3.2 Level 3 Uncorrectable Errors on the Master: There shall be no level 3 uncorrectable errors on the father as played on the master player during the mastering process. 3.3.3 Level 3 Uncorrectable Errors on Manufactured Discs: There shall be no uncorrectable level 3 errors on discs produced. This measurement shall be taken from a statistically valid sample of production discs. 3.3.4 3 Bit Errors in the C2 Decoder (E32) on the Manufactured Discs: There shall be no more than 5% of any particular manufacturing lot with an E32 count greater than 0. This measurement shall be taken from a statistically valid sample of production discs. An E32 error causes invocation of level 3 ECC, which degrades performance greatly. A number of errors on any one disc will render that disc unuseable by DIGITAL and it's customers due to performance degradation. It shall be understood by DIGITAL and its vendors that a goal of zero errors shall be the objective. It shall be the responsibility of DIGITAL and vendor manufacturing to keep the error count per disc and per batch as low as possible. 3.3.5 Linear Velocity: Discs shall be mastered such that the linear velocity shall not be lower than 1.25 meters per second. 3.3.6 Track Pitch: Nominal track pitch consistent with maximum data reliability shall be used in all cases when mastering discs. 3.3.7 Aging: Discs shall be manufactured for an expected life time of 10 years under normal use. 3.4 Test Discs: 30-23507-02 and 30-23507-03 are test discs for the RRD50 and the RRD40, respectively. Information on test disc data patterns, CDROM disc structure, and the macro program used to generate data patterns are found in the DIGITAL engineering specification A-SP-RRD40-0-DBT. Information on the RRD40 test disc specifications are in Appendix A of A-PS-3023507-0-0. The major differences between the two test discs are as follows: 1. Logical Block Number 0 (00:02:00) has a slightly different header. 2. The RRD50 test disc has a forced error at sectors 64:55:73 and 64:55:74 while the RRD40 test disc has a number of forced errors occurring in the disc range from 60:00:00 minutes to the end of the disc. (This is described in Appendix A.) 3. There is slightly less capacity on the RRD40 test disc. APPLICATION NOTE: The CD disc uses the Minute:Second:Frac (mm:ss:ff) format. One Logical Block Number (LBN) contains 512 bytes of data. One frame contains four LBNs. One second contains 75 fracs. One minute contains 60 seconds. The first sector of the test disc is composed on LBNs 0, 1, 2, and 3. LBNs 0-3 are located at 00::02::00 on the disk in mm:ss:ff format. APPENDIX A RRD40 TEST DISC SPECIFICATIONS 30-23507-03 1.0 DATA PATTERNS: Use RRD40 data patterns, specified in A-SP-RRD40-0-DBT: 1.1 Revision B Mastering Parameters: Track Pitch: 1.55 microns Scan Speed: 1.25 meters/sec. 1.2 Revision C Mastering Parameters: Track Pitch: 1.6 microns Scan Speed 1.3 meters/sec. 1.3 If a new master must be created for any reason, it should be created using the revision B track pitch and linear velocity. The revision of the disc should be updated on the label. All new masters for this disc require requalification by DIGITAL to verify proper function in the RRD40. 2.0 ERROR CHARACTERISTICS: 2.1 Revision B: Burst Error: 2.0 microseconds +/- 2% Duty Cycle: 34% +/- 2% Dropout Length: 0.70 microseconds +/- 2% 2.2 Revision C: The mastered errors must be of sufficient size to be flagged as uncorrectable C2 errors by the RRD40, but shall not cause detracking or other player errors. 3.0 DATA/ERROR MAP: 3.1 Revision B: Start Time End Time Defect Length MM:SS:FF MM:SS:FF (one defect per range) ---------- -------- ---------------------- Start of disc 00:01:74 TOC and Lead-In 00:02:00 60:29:74 Clean Data - No Errors 60:30:00 60:40:00 1.3 msec. 61:00:00 61:10:00 1.75 msec. 61:30:00 61:40:00 2.6 msec. 62:00:00 62:10:00 3.5 msec. * (LBN 1115400) (LBN 1118400) 62:30:00 62:40:00 3.5 msec. 63:00:00 63:10:00 5.2 msec. 63:30:00 63:40:00 7.0 msec. 64:00:00 64:10:00 10.5 msec. 64:30:00 -------- Start of Lead-Out * This is the only error that is guananteed to be on the test disc. 3.2 Revision C: Data/Error Map: Start Time End Time Comment MM:SS:FF MM:SS:FF ---------- ---------- ----------------- Start of disc 00:01:74 TOC and Lead-in 00:02:00 60:00:00 Clean Data - No Errors 60:00:01 Start of Leadout Forced error section (Beyond 64:40:00) There must be at least one error conforming to the above error characteristics between 62:00:00 and 62:10:00. Error placement in the reminder of the Forced Error section is unspecified. 4.0 SEQUENTIAL DATA PATTERNS: There are 10 data patterns in sequential order that are repeated for the entire disc. These patterns are fully defined in A-SP-RRD40-0-DBT. 0. Sector x:x0:xx - 75 sectors of psuedo-random pattern2 1. Sector x:x1:xx - 75 sectors of psuedo-random pattern3 alternating with 0's sector 2. Sector x:x2:xx - 75 sectors of all 0s. * 3. Sector x:x3:xx - 75 sectors of all 1s (FFH) 4. Sector x:x4:xx - 75 sectors of 16 bit shifting 1 in a field of 0s 5. Sector x:x5:xx - 75 sectors of 16 bit shifting 0 in a field of 1s. 6. Sector x:x6:xx - 75 sectors of alternating 01 pattern (AAH) 7. Sector x:x7:xx - 75 sectors of byte incrementing (OOH - FFH) 8. Sector x:x8:xx - 75 sectors of encrypted data pattern 9. Sector x:x9:xx - 75 sectors of psuedo-random pattern1 alternating with 0's sector NOTES: x Indicates any valid value for the CD address in Minute:Second:Frame (mm:ss:ff) format. * Sector 00:02:00 has the DIGITAL disc header on it. The difference between the RRD50 test disc and the RRD40 test disc is that the RRD40 will indicate that it is an "RRD40 TEST DISC" and will have a "REV 2.0" revision, Reference A-SP-RRD40-0-DBT.
