2 Brief History of Compact Digital Media
1980: The first Compact Disk player is produced by Sony/Phillips. 1982: The first Compact Disk is manufactured for sale, Billy Joel’s “52nd Street” 1984: First portable Compact Disk players enter the market followed by car CD players shortly after. 1985: Sony/Philips announce the standard for compact disc storage of computer data, the CD-ROM 1987: Video CD format is designed. 1991: CD-R (Compact Disk Recordable) technology is introduced as a new storage technology. 1996: Digital Versatile Disk(DVD) technology is introduced 1997: DVD’s and DVD players begin to enter the market 1998: DVD Recordable systems invented and begin to enter the market 2000: DVD movies become mainstream and replace analog VHS as the format of choice.

3 Compact Disk (CD) Basics
Uses Digital Technology to store data in binary values of Zero and One Uses “Pits” and “Lands” to signify binary values CD’s Read at a Constant Linear Velocity (CLV) Capable of Storing Large Amounts of Data (up to 700MB) Uses Error Correction for reliable data retrieval even if the CD becomes lightly scratched.

4 Types Of Compact Disks CD Audio – The first type of CD that was available. This allows for the storage of digital audio. These are playable in all current CD drives and car audio systems including DVD players. CD-ROM – Computer Data is stored on these units such as games, applications, and other files. Only readable on computers. CD-R – Allows users to write data once to a recordable Compact Disk. Can not be re-written and can be read in all current players depending on wither the disk holds Audio or Data. CD-RW – Users Can Write and Re-Write these special disks. However because of the disk format, they cannot be read in Audio CD players or DVD players.

5 CD Basic Technology Principles
This diagram shows the side view of a common CD. Printed Label : The image on the top of the CD, more of a “secondary” protection device than anything else. Protective Lacquer: This protects the CD from scratches and helps reflect the CD player’s laser. Aluminum Layer: This is the reflective layer that primarily bounces the CD player’s laser back. Polycarbonate: Known industry wide as a very durable substance, Polycarbonate is a clear covering designed to protect the pits and lands in the CD surface.

6 CD Audio: How Does It Work?
Sound is Sampled at 40,000 Times per Second or Higher Each Sample Must be Represented by at least a 16-bit number Therefore, with 40,000 samples per second, and 16-bits per sample, that’s over 640,000 bits per second! Therefore a 1 minute long music clip would take over 38,400,000 bits (+/- 38MB) for storage!

7 File Systems are used to store data for easy and quick access
Computer CD-ROM’s Divided Into Sectors Containing User Data and Error Correction Codes. Set up similar to hard drives however they do not have a “FAT” sector, instead sectors are opened and closed with special pit and land combinations. File Systems are used to store data for easy and quick access

CD Recordable Basics This diagram shows the side view of a common CD. Printed Label : The image on the top of the CD, more of a “secondary” protection device than anything else. Protective Lacquer: This protects the CD from scratches and helps reflect the CD player’s laser. Gold Layer: This is the reflective layer that primarily bounces the CD player’s laser back. Dye Layer: This is burned into Dark or Light spots by the CD Recorder drive. Imitates lands and pits. Polycarbonate: Known industry wide as a very durable substance, Polycarbonate is a clear covering designed to protect the pits and lands in the CD surface.

9 Can Only Write Data Once
CD-R Technology Can Only Write Data Once Uses Gold Instead of Aluminum for its Reflective Layer, thus a higher cost than traditional CD’s Uses Dye to “trick” the CD player Laser into thinking it is passing over real Pits and Lands, when in actuality it is merely passing over light and dark spots in the dye.

10 CD-RW Technology Allows Users to Write Many Times (However This is Limited) Uses Alloy of Sliver, Indium, Antimony, and Tellurium for Reflective Layer Uses varying power levels to read and write lands and pits. High Power = Creates Pits Melts Alloy and Converts it to a High-reflectivity Crystalline state Medium Power = Creates Lands Melts Alloy and Converts it to Natural Crystalline state Low Power = For Reading…no change to CD surface. No Change in Alloy

11 Error Correction, Why Bother?
Error correction is an imperative part of CD technology, you cannot take good enough care of a CD to prevent errors. Sony and Phillips knew this, so they instituted the basics of Error Correction Technology. Errors can be caused by: Manufacturing defects (Rare) Scratches (Very Common) Error Correction Types: CIRC – (Cross Interleaved Read-Solomon Code) encoder EFM Modulation – (Eight to Fourteen)

12 CIRC Error Correction:
Can correct Error Bursts up to 3,500 bits long (2.4mm in length) Helps to compensate for Error Bursts up to 12,000 bits (8.5mm). These types of errors are typically caused by minor scratches.

13 EFM Error Correction Technology
Works to ensure Pits and Land Lengths are no Less Than 3 channel bits and no More Than 11 Channel Bits Very widely used in portable CD players because it helps to reduce the skipping effect of jitter and distortions.

14 DVD is Born! If CD is so great…why change it? Space limitations plagued CD’s to a life only in the music market, Video producers could not fit full length movies on a CD. The goal of DVD was to create a “vastly increased capacity, with the ability to feature an entire movie in high-quality digital video on a single side of a disc.” They also wanted...Brighter colors, sharper pictures, and outstanding audio quality The goal was a 4.7 gigabyte capacity with the ability to hold hours of full motion video and sound

15 Obviously they did it…but how?
DVD uses Smaller pit and land dimensions, therefore the laser must me exponentially more accurate than with CD’s. More closely-spaced tracks, called "track pitch" A shorter-wavelength laser

16 The Wavelength Issue: DVD Players and DVD-ROM drives use a laser that emits high intensity red light at 650 and 635nm vs the 780 nanometers for CD technology These shorter wavelengths are better at reading the smaller, densely packed together pits and lands. The laser assembly has been re-engineered to produce a more tightly focused laser beam

17 How Many Layers Would You Like?
As an interesting consequence of using the new lasers and the new DVD design elements, they found that multiple sides and layers could be stacked onto a single DVD disk. A total of 4 configurations were found to be viable: Single Side, Single Layer Single Side, Dual Layer Double Side, Single Layer Double Side, Dual Layer 

18 Single Side, Single Layer DVD
Accounts for most DVD’s 4.7 GB of data capacity "7 times" the data capacity of today’s music CDs and CD-ROMs

19 Single Side, Dual Layer DVD
8.5 GB on one side additional 3.8 GB on the second layer more than "13 times" the capacity of today’s music CDs and CD-ROMs

20 Dual Side, Single Layer DVD
9.4 GB (4.7 on each side) provides a little more capacity Flipping the disc or having a DVD Player capable of two-sided playback is required

21 Dual Side, Dual Layer DVD
Maximum capacity of 17GB (8.5GB on each side) Flipping the disc or having a DVD Player capable of two-sided playback is required

22 CD versus DVD Grudge Match of the Century!
Who has the advantage here? Both discs are the same physical size (120 mm diameter & 1.2 mm thickness, which makes CDs compatible with DVD players. Both discs are made with the same basic technology and production processes Both technologies read discs in the same manner DVD software can be replicated from existing CD production facilities However DVD has some tricks up its sleeves…. DVD can hold exponentially more data than a CD can DVD has Higher density data storage where smaller pits and smaller tracks in DVDs provide seven times storage alone compared to CDs DVD has less overhead & more area because the DVD’s error-correction scheme is more efficient and requires less storage space that can be used for other information DVD can have Multi-layer storage whereas CD stores data on one layer on one side of disc. DVD can store up to two layers on up to two sides of the disc, which allows up to 4X the storage amount

23 Side By Side Comparison:

24 Could DVD replace CD Audio?
Simply Put…why SHOULDN’T IT? After all…. CDs can hold only 80 minutes of music, while DVDs can hold 7 hours of music at the same quality, or 80 minutes of music at better quality DVD can record audio at better quality than CD because of increased sampling rate and quantization levels DVD can record in surround sound (6 channels instead of 2) DVD audio requires a player with a 192kHz/24-bit DAC DVD drives can play CD audio so it is downwardly compatible technology. Unfortunately, CD drives cannot play DVD audio

25 DVD to surpass CD Video and VHS?
DVD video is encoded in MPEG-2 format, while CD video is encoded in MPEG-1 format CD data capacity limitations make competing with DVD video in resolution and duration impossible DVD movies exceed VHS quality, while CD movies cannot match VHS quality DVD drives can play CD video, but CD drives cannot play DVD video

26 Is CD technology on the way out?
CDs will continue to be a leading audio format in the recording industry for several years to come Recordable CDs will serve as excellent form of file storage More advanced applications will abandon the CD format, while smaller applications may stay will the CD format Newer players and drives that support new formats, yet providing backwards compatibility will prolong the CD format’s life Video games systems will move away from the CD format towards DVD, for example the new Sony Playstation 2 uses DVD technology as does the upcoming Microsoft X-BOX and the next generation Nintendo system.

27 The future of DVD DVD Video will become the leading format for the movie industry DVD-ROMs will become the mainstream for computer applications DVD will become the leading format for video game systems Recordable DVD will eventually be available to consumers Software projects containing a large amount of multimedia will take advantage of DVD’s high storage capacity DVD Audio will compete with the currently experimental Super Audio CD (SACD) technology.
