Patent ID: 7710059

Claim:
An arrangement for optimizing servo controlled power in the operation of two-dimensional flexure microelectronic memory storage devices, comprising: a stationary base member; a movable scanner platform having memory storage media located on an upper surface of said scanner platform; flexural supports for said scanner platform being positioned on said stationary base member facilitating displacement of said movable scanner platform in x- and y-directions relative to said stationary base member; actuators connected to said movable scanner platform and being responsive to the operation of servo controllers for imparting said x- and y-directional displacements thereto, including x- and y-position sensors for determining the extent of displacement of said scanning platform; and a scanning structure movable along x- and y- coordinates about the surface of said scanner platform containing said microelectronic memory storage media to the vicinity of a target track within a period of time minimizing power output required for said servo controllers.
