LIMDOW
Last modified: Thursday, August 30, 2001
A technology that speeds the copying of information from main memoryto CD-ROM. The conventional process for copying to CD-ROM, called magnetic-optico (MO) technology, requires that the disk pass at least twice under the head -- once for erasing and once for copying (also called writing). LIMDOW modulates the laser's intensity for both processes to complete the writing in a single rotation.
