2、chnical Committee TC19 of ECMA began work on the standardization of flexible disk cartridges in 1974. As a result ECMA has produced a. set of standards for different types of flexible disk cartridges (FDC) : 200 mm FDCs ECMA- 5 8 ECMA- 5 9 ECMA- 6 9 130 mm FDCs ECMA-66 ECMA- 7 O ECMA- 7 8 ECMA-99 90

3、 mm FDC ECMA-100 A standard for file structure and labelling for sequentially re- corded flexible disk cartridges has been issued as Standard ECMA-91. A further standard for other types of applications is in progress. These ECMA standards specify the requirements for the unrecorded End for the recor

4、ded medium. They were all contributed to ISO/ TC97/SCll and SC15 and the corresponding international standards and draft Standards are technically identical with the ECMA standards. The present Standard ECMA-99 is based on a proposal made by the Japanese Standardization Committee (JISC) to ISO/TC97/

5、SC11. The original purpose of the proposal was to provide a 130 mm FDC with a capacity sufficient for emulation of 200 mm FDCs. Track Format No. 1 in this Standard has been designed accordingly. It corresponds to that specified in Standard ECMA-69. Technical Committee TC19 of ECMA decided, however,

6、that a second track format should be stan- dardized, because 130 mm FDCs of this type are also used as data carriers in their own rights for applications other than emulation of 200 mm FDCs. Track Format No. 2 has been designed accordingly. It is compatible with that specified in Standard ECMA-100 f

7、or 90 mm FDCs. This Standard has been accepted by the General Assembly of ECMA on June 13-14, 1985. I ECMA ECMA*99 85 3404593 O007680 7 .

23、ysical and magnetic characteritics of a 130 mm magnetic flexible disk cartridge with a track density of 3,8 tracks per mm, recorded on both sides at 13262 flux transitions per radian to provide physical interchangeability between data processing systems. It also specifies the quality of the recorded

24、 signals, the track layout and two track formats. Toge- ther with the labelling system specified in Standard ECMA-91, Track Format No. 1 affords for full data interchange between data process- ing systems. A labelling system is being developed to afford full data interchange when using Track Format

25、No. 2. CONFORMANCE A 130 mm flexible disk cartridge recorded on both sides is in con- formance with this Standard if it meets all mandatory requirements of Section II, Section III and either Section IV or Section V of this Standard. 1.

27、in Elements The main elements of this flexible disk cartridge are: - the recording disk - the liner - the jacket The cartridge is stored in an envelope. The jacket shall have a square form. It includes a central window, an index and a head window in both sides. The liner is fixed to the inside of th

28、e jacket. It comprises two layers of material between which the disk is held. The liner has the same openings as the jacket. The disk has only a central hole and an Index hole. 1.4 Optional Features 1.3 Description The interchange characteristics of the jacket allow for. va- riations of its construc

29、tion. It may include flaps (e.g. three flaps as shown in the drawings, or none) and notches along the Reference Edge. # Y 1 I ECMA ECMA*79 85 W 3404593 000768b 8 W -2- 1.5 Definitions For the purpose of this Standard the following definitions apply: 1.5.1 Flexible Disk A flexible disk which accepts

30、and retains on the specified side or sides magnetic signals intended for inputloutput and storage purposes of information data processing and associated systems. 1.5.2 Master Standard Reference Flexible Disk Cartridge A reference flexible disk catridge selected as the standard for reference fields,

31、signal amplitudes, resolution and overwrite. Track O0 and Track 76 on both sides are de- clared as reference tracks. .

Typical Field The minimum recoxding field which, when applied to a flexi- ble disk cartridge, causes a signal output equal to 95% of the maximum Average Signal

34、Amplitude when taken as a func- tion of the recording field at the specified track and flux transition density of that flexible disk cartridge. Reference Field The Reference Field is the typical field of the Master Stan- dard Reference Flexible Disk Cartridge. There are two Refe- rence Fields, one f

35、or each side. Test Recording Current The Test Recording Current is the current between 145% and 155% of the current which produces the Reference Field at 250 O00 ftps on track OO. There are two Test Recording Currents, one for each side. ECMA ECMA*9 85 I 3404593 0007687 T -3- 1.5.7 Standard Referenc

36、e Amplitudes The Average Signal Amplitudes derived from the reference tracks of the Master Standard Reference Flexible Disk Cartridge using the Test Recording Current. There are four Standard Reference Amplitudes, two for each side: SRAlf is the Average Signal Amplitude from a recording written usin
