6、ing - DATA/DAT Format 3.81 mm Wide Magnetic Tape Cartridge for Information Interchange - Helical Scan Recording - DDS-DC Format Data Interchange on 12.7 mm 18-Track Magnetic Tape Cartridges - Extended Format - The first five of these media were designed for the digital recording of data for storage

7、and processing in data processing systems. In recent years, other magnetic media, originally developed for audio and video applications, have been considered for use in data processing applications for storage as well as for information interchange. The recording method known as helical scan recordi

8、ng, together with new types of magnetic tapes, allows to achieve capacities of more than 1 gigabyte of user data. Standards ECMA-139, ECMA-145, ECMA-146, and ECMA-150 are the first of a series of ECMA Standards for such magnetic tape cartridges. This Standard ECMA-169 is the next one of this series.

9、 It is based on Standard ECMA-145 with extensions and modifications which specify the additional features of the Dual Azimuth format. The specifications of the tape, cartridge, recorded signal, recording method and much of the recorded format are identical with those in Standard It is not intended t

10、hat this Standard replace Standard ECMA-145. Existing drives and cartridges which conform to Standard ECMA-145 will continue to do so and will not conform to this Standard. Future drives and tapes which conform to Standard ECMA-145 may, in addition, conform to this Standard, but only if they support

11、 those features herein which are not in Standard ECMA-145. Upon request of Committee ISO/IEC JTCl/SC11, Standards ECMA-139, ECMA-145, ECMA-146 and ECMA-150 have been contributed to ISODEC JTCl and adopted, under the fast-track procedure, as International Standards ISO/IEC 10777, ISO/IEC 11319, ISO/I

12、EC 11321 and ISO/IEC 11557, respectively. ECMA-145. Adopted as an ECMA Standard by the General Assembiy of June 1992.
