Tilt controller based on distortion-free control signals and an optical reproducing apparatus thereof

A tilt controller controlling a tilt of an actuator of an optical pickup based on distortion-free control signals and an optical reproducing apparatus including the tilt controller. A control signal generator generates firs and second control signals to control the actuator. A reference control signal generator generates a reference control signal using the first and second control signals. A driving signal generator generates driving signals for the actuator using the first and second control signals, and the reference control signal. Protection circuits prevent the reference control signal generator from affecting first and second control signals. Accordingly, distortion of the actuator driving signals is eliminated.
