    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure pertain to an apparatus for detecting timing errors including an analog to digital converter circuit, a diversity loop detector and a timing error calculation circuit. The analog to digital converter circuit is operable to convert an input signal into a series of digital samples. The diversity loop detector is operable to apply a data detection algorithm to a plurality of signals derived from the series of digital samples at different phase offsets, to select one of the phase offsets, and to yield a detected output with the selected phase offset. The timing error calculation circuit is operable to calculate a timing error of the analog to digital converter circuit based at least in part on the selected phase offset.

    Abstract: A hard disk drive includes a processor to automatically adjust a threshold level for finding sync-marks. The processor determines all possible sync-mark patterns for a particular pattern length and analyzes each pattern with reference to real world data. The pattern with the largest distance gap is used. The threshold level is then adjusted dynamically to produce the lowest possible failure rate for the given pattern.

    Abstract: An apparatus comprises read channel circuitry and associated signal processing circuitry comprising frontend processing circuitry and backend processing circuitry. The frontend processing circuitry comprises a loop detector and equalizer configured to determine an equalized read channel signal from a read channel signal and a decoding module configured to apply verification and scrambling processing on a decoded read channel signal. The backend processing circuitry comprises a backend detector, an interleaver, a backend decoder, and a de-interleaver configured to perform an iterative decoding process on the equalized read channel signal to determine the decoded read channel signal. The frontend processing circuitry is controlled by a first clock having an associated first clock rate and the backend processing circuitry is controlled by a selected one of the first clock and a second clock having an associated second clock rate determined at least in part by the first clock rate and a maximum clock rate.
