2、sk cartridges in 1974. As a result ECMA has produced a set of standards for different types of flexible disk cartridges (FDC): 200 mm FDCs 130 mm FDCs ECMA-58 ECMA-59 ECMA-69 ECMA-66 ECMA-70 ECMA-78 ECM A-99 90 mm FDCs ECMA- 1 O0 Standards ECMA-70, ECMA-78 and ECMA-99 speciS, two different track for

3、mats, The first specifies FM recording in Cylinder 00 and is intended for use with the labelling system specified in Standard ECMA-91. The second track format, which is identical with that of Standard ECMA-100, specifies MFM recording on all cylinders and is in- tended for use with the volume and fi

4、le structure of Standard ECMA-107. Standard ECMA-100 was developed with a view to achieving a capacity of 1 Mbyte. The present Standard is a further development of the same medium providing a capa- city of 2 Mbytes. Work on this project started in ECMA in November 1985. Whilst some aspects may requi

5、re further investigation it has been decided to publish this Standard in its present form to meet the needs of users and industry; it is intended that these aspects shall be reviewed for the next editions. In particular, research is in progress on the ranges of operating environment within which rel

6、iable data interchange can take place, the tolerance on location of recorded tracks, the tolerance on the gener- ation of the Index pulse, and the upper limit for overwrite. In its present form this ECMA standard is technically identical with ISODIS 9529. This Standard has been accepted by the Gener
