    摘要: A hard disk drive with a disk that has a plurality of data bits. The drive includes a circuit that reads each data bit n times and selects a value for the bit based on a reliability factor. The circuit may select a bit based at least in part on the most frequent occurrence of one of a plurality of values. For example, if more 0s occurred than 1s the bit would be set to 0. The reliability factor may be a ratio of the occurrence of 0s to the occurrence of 1s. A bit can be not selected or deselected if the reliability factor exceeds a threshold value.

    摘要: A hard disk drive with a disk that includes a first group of tracks and a second group of tracks. The second group of tracks are used to write large blocks of data. For example, data in the second group may be video or audio. The second group of tracks has a higher track density than the first group of tracks. The large data block is written sequentially in the second group of tracks so that there is only one adjacent track write within the group. Using only one adjacent track write allows the tracks within the second group to be overlapped to increase track density.

    摘要: A hard disk drive that determines a flying height from a ratio of a first harmonic transfer function and a third harmonic transfer function. The transfer functions can be determined from a response to an impulse function. The impulse function (also known as an impulse response) can be a playback waveform de-convolved by channel data sequence. Any change in the ratio of the first and third harmonic transfer functions corresponds to a change in the flying height. The disk drive may utilize the transfer function ratios in a feedback routine to control the flying height.

    摘要: This application discloses a message format including a data payload of N bits and a corrector component encoding a checksum to correct the checksum of single bit slipping noise, where the checksum is the sum of each data payload bit by its position modulo N+1. The corrector component may encode a second checksum derived from the checksum that may also be included in the message and so on. Apparatus embodiments may include a transmitter generating a transmitted message of this format and/or a receiver using a received message that may be corrupted from the transmitted message through bit slipping in the form of bit insertion or bit deletion.

    摘要: A hard disk drive that includes a head that is coupled to a disk. The disk drive further includes a comparator circuit that is coupled to the head. The comparator circuit receives a synchronization signal and a write clock. The comparator generates a write error signal if a comparison of the synchronization and write clock signals exceeds a threshold. The write error signal can inhibit a write operation or cause a rewrite of data.

    摘要: A disk drive that includes a head and a disk. The disk drive also includes a circuit that can detect head/disk contact from a jitter determined from a read signal provided by the head. The jitter may correspond to the time interval between two detected sync marks. Alternatively, the jitter may correspond to a change in frequency of a read clock generated from the read signal. These approaches allow for detection of head movement in a down track direction. Down track is a direction that is essentially parallel with the longitudinal axis of the head.
