US Patent 7586818 Optical disc apparatus and semiconductor device

The purpose is to provide an optical disc apparatus which can accurately calculate a gain for focus control. An optical apparatus (100) includes: an FE generator (20) for generating an FE signal; an AS generator for generating an AS signal (21); a normalization operator (22); an Fc filter (23); a selector (24); a spherical aberration setting device (34); an FE amplitude measuring device (30); an Fc pull-in instructor (52); an after-pull-in AS measuring device (40); and a gain operator (32). The optical apparatus obtains an amplitude of the FE signal before the focus is pulled in, and obtains a level of the AS signal after the focus is pulled in to adjust a focus gain.
