摘要:
A playback signal is supplied to a delay amplifier and a noise comparator. The delayed playback signal is supplied to a comparator, which compares the delayed playback signal with the playback signal and provides a first comparison signal to a pulse adjustment circuit. The noise comparator compares the playback signal with threshold signals and provides a second comparison signal to the pulse adjustment circuit. The pulse adjustment circuit generates the peak detection signal at each point when the signal level of the first comparison is inverted, and determines the peak detection signal to be invalid when the signal level of the playback signal falls within the range between the threshold signals. A read signal is generated based on the valid peak detection signal.
摘要:
A peak detection circuit receives a playback signal from a magnetic storage medium and generates a peak detection signal. A shift register transmits the peak detection signal, and a pattern detection circuit is responsive to signals from the shift register to detect a first predetermined temporal pattern of peaks in the peak detection signal. A pattern correction circuit adjusts the relative timing of peaks in the peak detection signal so that the first predetermined temporal pattern of peaks in the peak detection signal is converted to a second predetermined temporal pattern of peaks in a corrected peak detection signal.
