Foreword IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0 technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, govern- mental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by the IS0 Council. They are approved in accordance with IS0 procedures requiring at least 75 % approval by the member bodies voting. International Standard IS0 8378/2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 97, Information processing systems. Users should note that all International Standards undergo revision from time to time and that any reference made herein to any other International Standard implies its latest edition, unless otherwise stated. 0 International Organization for Standardization, 1966 Printed in Switzerland ii SIST EN 28378-2:1997

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD IS0 8378/2-1986 (E) Information processing - Data interchange on 130 mm (5.25 in) flexible disk cartridges using modified frequency modulation recording at 7 958 ftprad, 3,8 tpmm (96 tpi), on both sides - Part 2: Track format A 0 Introduction IS0 8378 specifies the characteristics of 130 mm (5.25 in) flexible disk cartridges recorded at 7 958 ftprad, 3,8 tpmm (96 tpi), on both sides using modified frequency modulation (MFM) recording. IS0 8378/l specifies the dimensional, physical and magnetic characteristics of the cartridge so as to provide physical inter- changeability between data processing systems. IS0 8378/3 specifies an alternative track format for data inter- change. Together with the labelling scheme specified in IS0 7665, IS0 8378/l and IS0 8378/2 provide for full data interchange between data processing systems. 1 Scope and field of application This part of IS0 8378 specifies the quality of recorded signals, the track layout, and a track format to be used on 130 mm (5.25 in) flexible disk cartridges intended for data interchange between data processing systems. NOTE - Numeric values in the SI and/or Imperial measurement system in this part of IS0 8378 may have been rounded off and therefore are consistent with, but not exactly equal to, each other. Either system may be used, but the two should be neither intermixed nor reconverted. The original design of this part of IS0 8378 was made using SI units. 2 Conformance A flexible disk cartridge shall be in conformance with IS0 8378 when it meets all the requirements either of parts 1 and 2 or of parts 1 and 3 of IS0 8378. 3 References IS0 646, Information processing - IS0 7-bit coded character set for information interchange.

Part 3: Track format B. 4 Track format 4.1 General requirements 4.1.1 Mode of recording 4.1.1.1 Track 00, side 0 The mode of recording shall be two-frequency where the start of every bit cell is a clock flux transition. A ONE is represented by a data flux transition between two clock flux transitions. Exceptions to this are defined in 4.1.12. 4.1.1.2 All tracks other than track 00, side 0 The mode of recording shall be Modified Frequency Modu- lation (MFM) for which the conditions are a) a flux transition shall be written at the centre of each bit cell containing a ONE; b) a flux transition shall be written at each cell boundary between consecutive bit cells containing ZEROS. Exceptions to this are defined in 4.1.12. SIST EN 28378-2:1997



1s0 8378/2-1986 (E) 4.1.2 Track location disk cartridg e tolerance of the recorded flexible The centrelines of the recorded tracks shall be within +0,042 5 mm (0.001 7 in) of the nominal positions, over the range of operating environment specified in IS0 8378/l. 4.1.3 Recording offset angle At the instant of writing or reading a magnetic transition, the transition shall have an angle of O” + 18’ with the radius. NOTE - As tracks may be written and overwritten at extremes of the tolerances given in 4.1.2 and 4.1.3, a band of old information may be left at one edge of the newly written data and would constitute unwanted noise when reading. It is, therefore, necessary to trim the edges of the tracks by erasure after writing. 4.1.4 Density of recording 4.1.4.1 The nominal density of recording shall be 7 958 ftprad. The nominal bit cell length for track 00, side 0 is 251 prad, and for all the other tracks it is 125,7 prad. 4.1.4.2 The long-term average bit cell length shall be the average bit cell length measured over a sector. It shall be within +3,5 % of the nominal bit cell length. 4.1.4.3 The short-term average bit cell length, referred to a particular bit cell, shall be the average of the lengths of the preceding eight bit cells. It shall be within +8 % of the long- term average bit cell length. 4.1.5 Flux transition spacing The instantaneous spacing between flux transitions may be in- fluenced by the reading and writing process, the bit sequence recorded (pulse crowding effects), and other factors. The locations of the transitions are defined as the locations of the peaks in the signal when reading. Tests should be carried out using a peak-sensing amplifier. 4.151 Flux transition spacing for track 00, side 0 (see figure I). 4.1.5.1.1 The spacing between two clock flux transitions surrounding a data flux transition or between two data flux transitions surrounding a clock flux transition shall be between 90 % and 140 % of the nominal bit cell length. 4.1.5.1.2 The spacing between two clock flux transitions not surrounding a data flux transition or between two data flux transitions surrounding a missing clock flux transition shall be between 60 % and 110 % of the nominal bit cell length. 4.1.5.1.3 The spacing between a data flux transition and the preceding clock flux transition (when not missing) or between a clock flux transition and the -preceding data flux transition (when not missing) shall be between 45 % and 70 % of the nominal bit cell length. 4.1.5.2 Flux transition spacing for all tracks other than track 00, side 0 (see figure 2). 4.1.5.2.1 The spacing between the flux transitions in a sequence of ONES shall be between 80 % and 120 % of the short-term average bit cell length. 4.1.5.2.2 The spacing between the flux transition for a ONE and that between two ZEROS preceding or following it shall be between 130 % and 165 % of the short-term average bit cell length. 4.1.5.2.3 The spacing between the two ONE flux transitions surrounding a ZERO bit cell shall lie between 185 % and 225 % of the short-term average bit cell length. 4.1.6 Average signal amplitude For each side the average signal amplitude on any non- defective track (see IS0 8378/l) of the interchanged flexible disk cartridge shall be less than 160 % of SRA, f and more than 40 “9/o of SRA,, .
