3、3,Sl mm WIDE MAGNETIC TAPE CARTRIDGE FOR INFORMATION INTERCHANGE - HELICAL SCAN RECORDING - DDS FORMAT June 1990 BRIEF HISTORY ECMA have produced a series of ECMA Standards for cassettes and cartridges containing magnetic tapes of different width and characteristics.

5、 Magnetic Tape Cartridges ECMA-46 (1976): ECMA-79 (1985): Data Interchange on 6,30 mm Magnetic Tape Cartridge Using IMFM ECMA-98 (1985): ECMA-120 (1987): These media were designed for the digital recording of data for storage and processing in data processing systems. In recent years, other magnetic

6、 media, originally developed for audio and video applications have been considered for use in data processing applications for storage as weil as for information interchange. The recording method known as helical scan recording, together with new types of magnetic tapes, allows to achieve capacities

7、 of more than 1 gigabyte of user data. This ECMA Standard is the first of a series of ECMA Standards for such magnetic tape cartridges. A second standard for the same medium but for a different format as weil as a standard for an 8 mm wide magnetic tape cartridge are under development. This ECMA Sta

8、ndard has been contributed to IS0 for further processing as an IS0 International Standard under the fast-track procedure. Adopted as an ECMA Standard by the General Assembly of 28th June 1990. - STD-ECMA ECMA-139-ENGL L990 W 3404593 0032820 136 -i- Table of Contents Page SECTION 1 - GENERAL 1. SCOPE

It also specifies the quality of the recorded sig

32、nal, the format and the recording method, thereby allowing data interchange by means of such magnetic tape cartridges. CONFORMANCE Magnetic Tape Cartridge A tape cartridge shall be in conformance with this Standard if it meets all mandatory require- ments specified herein. The tape shall be either a

33、 Single Data Space Tape or a Partitioned Tape. Generating System A system generating a magnetic tape cartridge for interchange shall be entitled to claim confor- mance with this Standard if all recordings on the tape meet the mandatory requirements of this Standard, and if either or both methods of

34、appending and overwriting are implemented. In addition a claim of conformance shall state which of the following optional features are implemented and which are not: - the performing of a Read-After-Write check and the recording of any necessary repeated frames, - the recording of multiple represent

35、ations of the same Basic Group, - the generation of ECC3 Frames. Receiving System A system receiving a magnetic tape cartridge for interchange shall be entitled to claim confor- mance with this Standard if it is able to handle any recording made on the tape according to this Standard. In particular

36、it shall be able: - to recognize repeated frames and to make available to the user data and separator marks from only one of these frames, to recognize multiple representations of the same Basic Group and to make available to the user data and separator marks from only one of these representations,

37、to recognize an ECC3 frame, and ignore it if the option specified below is not implemented, to update the System Log(s) if the Write-lnhibit Hole state so permits. - - - in addition a claim of conformance shall state whether or not the system is capable of using ECC3 check bytes in a process of erro

38、r correction.
