1.3 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MK-134FA is a 3.5-inch Winchester disk drive designed primarily to be incorporated into high perform-
ance desk-top and lap-top computers.
An industry standard ST50S/412 interface provides compatibility with other 3.5-inch and 5.25-inch Winches-
ter storage products and commercially available controllers. The MK-134FA complies with the standard 3.5-
inch mini floppy size, mounting and power requirements.
When used with conventional ST50S/412 controllers, the MK-134FA offers a capacity of 53 megabytes
(unformatted), or 44 megabytes (typical, formatted).
The positioning system utilizes a rotary voice coil actuator to provide a 25 millisecond average seek time and
a 50 millisecond maximum seek time.
To facilitate operation in portable applications, extensive use of VLSI reduces average power consumption
to only 10 Watts.
Careful choice of cylinde r and head configuration allows for direct Operating System compatibility with existing
PC's.
The Head Disk Assembly (HDA) is enclosed in a die cast aluminum base plate and shroud and incorporates
numerous safety features to maximize reliability:
The base plate and shroud assembly provides mechnical mounting and EMI (Electro-magnetic
Interference) shielding for the heads, disks and actuator.
The sealed assembly incorporates an air recirculatory system and a 0.3 micron lifetime filter
to ensure a contamination-free environment and even thermal distribution.
When power is removed, a fail-safe system automatically returns the heads to a dedicated
landing zone and a solenoid automatically locks the carriage in this location. This prevents
head and media damage during transit.
Careful planning in regard to the location of components on the circuit card, especially those with electrical
noise potential, contributes to very low levels of read channel noise and enhances data recovery.
