摘要: A laser diode read driver includes a first transistor producing a first voltage in response to receiving a first current signal. A transconductor has a first input coupled to receive the first voltage and produces a second current signal in response to differences between signals received on the first input and a second input. A second transistor is coupled to the second input and produces a third current signal in response to receiving the second current signal. A third transistor is coupled to the second transistor and the second input and produces an output current signal in response to receiving the third current signal. The first transistor is scaled to the first transistor by the inverse of a gain factor. First and second resistors are coupled between the first and third transistors and a low voltage supply, and are scaled to each other by the gain factor.

摘要: An active damping system for reducing the ringing effects in write current signals flowing through a write head of a disk drive write circuit. The active damping system stores a voltage related to the write current, sinks write current from a terminal of the write head in response to a predetermined rate of increase in the stored voltage, and provides a high impedance to the terminal when the rate of increase of stored voltage is below the predetermined rate. The active damping system preferably includes a transistor connected between the write head terminal and a common electrical potential, a capacitor connected between the terminal and a base of the transistor, and a resistor connected between the base of the transistor and the common electrical potential.
