30、ally encoded data on a 0.50-inch (12.65-mm)-wide magnetic tape car-tridge to allow parties that comply with these requirements to interchange informationreliably. The standard applies to 128-track, 81 600 bpi (3 213 bpmm), serial serpen-tine, 2,7 RLL recording mode tape drives that operate in the st

31、reaming mode. Thisformat is called DLT4.The advantage of using the format described in this standard is that it provides morethan twice the data capacity when compared to the format described in American Na-tional Standard for Information Technology - Magnetic Tape Cartridge for InformationInterchan

34、m) DLT1 Format,ANSI X3.242-1994.The impetus to develop this standard was the requirement for higher-capacity tapedrives to provide backup for the increasingly greater capacities of the fixed mediadisk drives being used with information processing systems.This standard was developed by Technical Comm

35、ittee NCITS B5 on Digital MagneticTape. This group consists of experienced and qualified specialists on the recording ofdigital information on magnetic tape. In the development of this standard, careful con-sideration was given to current practices, existing equipment and supplies, achievingthe broa

36、dest possible acceptance, and providing a basis for future improvement inthe use of the medium.This standard contains five annexes. Annex A is part of this standard and is norma-tive. Annexes B, C, D and E are informative and are not considered part of this stan-dard.Requests for interpretation, sug

37、gestions for improvement or addenda, or defect re-ports are welcome. They should be sent to the National Committee for InformationTechnology Standards (NCITS), ITI, 1250 Eye Street, NW, Suite 200, Washington,DC 20005.This standard was processed and approved for submittal to ANSI by NCITS.

MichaelJerry Kellenbenz (Alt.)AT maximum wet bulb temperature: 0.15.5.20.2 ProcedureThe following procedure shall be used for the friction coefficient measurements.For the back-to-front measurement, wrap a tape sample, with a total wrap angle of

40、 at least 90 degrees,around a 1-in (25-mm) -diameter cylindrical mandrel (calcium titanate ceramic, Ra = 2 in) with the backsurface of the tape facing outward. Place a second sample of tape with the magnetic coating surface facinginward around the first sample with a total wrap angle of 90 degrees.

41、Attach one end of the outer tape to a0.145 lb (0.066 kg) weight. Attach the other end to a force gauge mounted on a motorized linear slide. Drivethe slide at a speed of 0.04 in/sec (1 mm/sec). Connect the force gauge to a plotter to record the results.Particular attention should be given to keeping

42、the samples clean and secure. The first piece of tape shall notmove during the test.For the measurements of the front and back individual friction, remove the first piece of tape.5.21 Pre-record conditionThe tape shall have been anhysteretically erased to ensure that the remanent magnetic moment of

43、therecording surface does not produce an amplitude more than 2% of the average signal amplitude and that nolow density transitions are present on the tape. This requirement is for testing the tape, and does not need tobe performed for writing data on the tape.NOTE - See annex A for the explanation o

44、f the requirement and for a suggested method of measurement.Copyright American National Standards Institute Provided by IHS under license with ANSINot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-ANSI NCITS 312-1998146 Tape magnetic recording performanceThe magnetic

45、 recording performance is defined by the testing requirements given in the following paragraphs.When performing the tests, the output or resultant signal shall be measured on the same relative pass forboth the reference tape and the tape under test (read-while-write, or on equipment without read-whi

46、le-writecapability, on the first forward-read-pass) on the same equipment.The following conditions shall apply to all magnetic recording testing requirements, unless otherwise noted: tape condition: pre-record condition; tape speed: 98.0 in/s 2 in/s (2.49 m/s 0.05 m/s); read gap: within the written

47、track; gap alignment: 5 of arc between the mean write transitions and the read gap; write-gap length: 35 in 7 in (0.89 m 0.18 m); write-gap width: 0.0085 in 0.0004 in (0.216 mm 0.010 mm); read-gap length: 7.00 in 1.80 in (0.18 m 0.05 m); read-gap width: 0.0017 in 0.0002 in (0.043 mm 0.05 mm); tape t

48、ension: 2.85 ozf 0.3 ozf (0.79 N 0.08 N); recording current: standard measurement current (It); Bandwidth of read amplifier 10.0 MHz; Physical recording densities:2F = 54 422 ftpi 1088 ftpi (2142 ftpmm 43 ftpmm) corresponding to 2.667 MHz;1F = 27 211 ftpi 545 ftpi (1071 ftpmm 22 ftpmm) corresponding

49、 to 1.333 MHz.6.1 Typical fieldThe typical field of the 2F frequency shall be between 75% and 125% of the master standard reference tapefield. Traceability to the corresponding master standard reference field is provided by the calibration factorssupplied with each secondary standard reference tape.6.2 Signal amplitudeThe average signal amplitude
