Abstract
A system and method for a servo controller (SC) used in an embedded disk controller for adjusting stored servo skew values based on measured skew values is provided. The system includes, a servo timing controller, wherein the servo timing controller includes a first register that stores measured servo skew values at a given time; a first set of registers that receive stored skew values and the measured skew values; and firmware that adjusts the skew values based on the measured skew values measured by a reference timer. The process includes, measuring actual skew values during a head change in a read operation; comparing the measured skew values with the stored skew values; adjusting the skew value based on the comparison; and adjusting a servo field timer based on the adjusted skew value.
