An analog to digital circuit assembly for use in an optical information includes a circuit for multiplexing a reference voltage input of an analog to digital converter to produce alternating normalized and referenced digital outputs of a plurality of analog signal inputs at a rate controlled by a sampling clock which includes a switch including first and second inputs, an output, and a control input for alternately connecting the first and the second inputs to the output, the output being applied to the reference voltage input. An information detection device having multiple detection outputs and having at least one servo mechanism that controls operations on information being detected is provided in conjunction with a signal summing circuit, a direct current voltage reference, a control clock connected, a servo error signal circuit having a servo error signal output and multiple inputs, a sampling clock, and a processing circuit having an input connected to a digital output of the analog to digital converter and an output for controlling at the least one servo mechanism.
