    摘要: A multiple-gap head for transferring data to or from a storage medium is disclosed. Data read by the gaps are directed over a plurality of serial data paths where the data are processed and synchronized. In some embodiments, all or part of a data synchronizer is shared by the serial data paths. The data are then assembled into a parallel data stream for delivery to a computer. Reading the data simultaneously with multiple gaps increases by several times the rate at which data can be transferred to or from a storage medium. In accordance with another aspect of the invention, a three-gap head is provided to reduce or eliminate the cross-talk or noise fringe problems which reduce the track density in a storage medium. A signal attenuator and a signal inverter are connected to each of the side gaps and the outputs thereof are summed with the signal originating at the center gap, such that the inverted signals from the side gaps cancel any cross-talk originating at the center gap. Similarly, an attenuator and an inverter are connected between the write data path (leading to the center gap) and each of the side gaps. During write operations the magnetic flux produced at each of the side gaps has the effect of focusing the magnetic flux produced at the center gap, thereby reducing or eliminating the noise fringe of the written data track.

    摘要: Techniques for DC offset cancellation are described. According to one embodiment, an amplifier has at least one output and first and second supply rails. The amplifier includes offset cancellation logic which is operable in a calibration mode to generate a first offset cancellation signal when the at least one output is coupled to a first voltage corresponding to the first supply rail, and a second offset cancellation signal when the at least one output is coupled to a second voltage corresponding to the second supply rail. The offset cancellation logic is further operable to facilitate at least partial cancellation of an offset voltage associated with the at least one output during a normal operation mode using a third offset cancellation signal which substantially corresponds to an average of the first and second offset cancellation signals.
