Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form the
specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the
development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with
particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other
international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. Draft
International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of patent rights.
ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO/IEC 20563 was prepared by JISC (as Standard JIS X.6245:1999) with document support and
contribution from ECMA and was adopted under a special "fast-track procedure", by Joint Technical Committee JTC 1,
Information technology, in parallel with its approval by national bodies of ISO and IEC.
Annexes A to N form a normative part of this International Standard. Annexes P to T are for information only.

values from 1,235 to 1,275.
Numbers in decimal notations are represented by the digits 0 to 9.
Numbers in hexadecimal notation are represented by the hexadecimal digits 0 to 9 and A to F in parentheses.
The setting of bits is denoted by ZERO and ONE.
Numbers in binary notations and bit patterns are represented by strings of digits 0 and 1, with the most significant bit shown to
the left.
Negative values of numbers in binary notation are given as Two’s complement.

7 General description
The 80 mm and 120 mm optical disks that are the subject of this International Standard consist of two substrates bonded
together by an adhesive layer, so that the recording layer (single-sided disk) or recording layers (double-sided disk) are on the
inside. The centring of the disk is performed on the edge of the centre hole of the assembled disk on the side currently read.
Clamping is performed in the Clamping Zone. The DVD-Recordable Disk (DVD-R) may be either double-sided or single-
sided with respect to the number of recording layers. A double-sided disk has a recording layer on the inside of each substrate.
A single-sided disk has one substrate with the recording layer on the inside and a dummy substrate without a recording layer.
An unrecorded DVD-R disk provides for the data to be irreversibly written by a drive. A recorded disk provides for the data to
be read many times by an optical beam of a drive. A recorded DVD-R disk is equivalent to a DVD-Read-Only Disk. Figure 1
shows schematically a double-sided and a single-sided disk.
Type 1S consists of a substrate, a single recording layer, an adhesive layer, and a dummy substrate. The recording layer can be
accessed from one side only. The nominal capacity is 1,23 Gbytes for an 80 mm disk and 3,95 Gbytes for a 120 mm disk.
Type 2S consists of two substrates, two recording layers, and an adhesive layer. From one side of the disk only one recording
layer can be accessed. The nominal capacity is 2,26 Gbytes for an 80 mm disk and 7,9 Gbytes for a 120 mm disk.

The optical system for measuring the optical parameters is shown in figure 2. It shall be such that the detected light reflected
from the entrance surface of the disk is minimized so as not to influence the accuracy of measurement. The combination of the

optical disk F. The beam splitter C shall have a p-s intensity/reflectance ratio of at least 100. Optics G generates an astigmatic
difference and collimates the light reflected by the recorded layer of the optical disk F for astigmatic focusing and read-out.
The position of the quadrant photo detector H shall be adjusted so that the light spot becomes a circle the centre of which
coincides with the centre of the quadrant photo detector H when the objective lens is focused on the recorded layer. An
example of such a photo detector H is shown in figure 2.

9.1.2 PUH for measuring unrecorded disks
The optical system for measuring the parameters is shown in figure 3. The optical system shall be used to measure the
unrecorded disk specifications and for the recordings that are necessary for disk measurements. Different components and
locations of the components are permitted, provided that the performance remains the same as the set-up in figure 3. The
optical system shall be such that the detected light reflected from the entrance surface of the disk is minimized so as not to
influence the accuracy of the measurements.
