摘要:
A plurality of comparators (CMP1, CMP2, . . . ) respectively correspond to a plurality of reference voltages (V1, V2, . . . ), and each compares a reference voltage corresponding to the comparator-with a signal level of an analog signal (Sin). An encoder (102) generates a digital signal (De) corresponding to the analog signal (Sin) based on outputs (S1, S2, . . . ) of the plurality of comparators. A pattern detection circuit (103) detects that a temporal change of an output (S3) of a first comparator matches a predetermined first particular pattern. A control circuit (104) corrects a digital value of the digital signal (De) in response to detection by the pattern detection circuit. The temporal change of the output (S3) of the first comparator becomes the first particular pattern when an amplitude of the analog signal (Sin) is smaller than a predetermined amplitude.

There has been an issue that the operation of a semiconductor circuit performing edge timing control cannot follow up in the multipulse generation process where high multiplication of speed progresses every year. A light strategy drive comprises a control register (22) storing timing edge information for generating the edge of a recording waveform signal, a PLL (23) generating a clock for generating the edge of a recording waveform signal, and a timing control circuit (24) for receiving timing edge information corresponding to the recording waveform signal from the control register (22) to output timing edge information having a predetermined amount of delay in parallel and compounding the edges based on the timing edge information outputted in parallel. Timing edge can be controlled with high precision even at the time of high speed operation, and a high precision multipulse can be generated.

摘要:
A waveform equalizer, which has a partial response characteristic represented in the form of PR (a, b, c, b, a) which is a quaternary transfer function characteristic, is made up an analog filter, an ADC (analog/digital converter), and an FIR filter, for providing matching with the frequency characteristic of a read back waveform read from a recording medium. Such signal processor characteristic approximation to the regenerative signal characteristic makes it possible to easily achieve equalization without particularly emphasizing the regenerative signal, thereby achieving a reduced circuit scale.

Conventional multi-input multiplication and addition circuit having fixed multipliers has problems in that when the number of inputs increases, the number of partial product generator circuits would increase, and also the number of stages of the addition blocks would increase.In order to solve the above-described problems, it is constructed such that there are provided a multi-input encoder (11) which comprises a plurality of encoder parts (11a) each of which accomplishes a function corresponding to generation of a partial product in multiplication, and which also has a plurality of outputs which correspond to the multi-bit output of the respective encoder parts, and a multi-input adder circuit (12) which adds the plural outputs from the multi-input encoder (11).

The conventional two's complement multiplier which is constituted by a Booth encoder, a partial production generation circuit, and an adder has a problem that the circuit scale would be increased because a bit extension is performed when the multiplier is adapted to an unsigned multiplication.A multiplication circuit of the present invention is provided with a first Booth encoder (1) for encoding lower-order several bits of a multiplier according to first rules of encoding using a Booth algorithm, and a second Booth encoder (5) for encoding most-significant several bits of the multiplier according to second rules of encoding using a Booth algorithm, which are different from the first rules of encoding, and thereby the most-significant several bits of the multiplier are encoded using the Booth algorithm which is different from that for the lower-order several bits.

A write correction circuit (100) includes, in its input stage, a pulse modification circuit (11) for removing patterns (sections) included in a write pulse signal (s1), which patterns have lengths outside a range that is previously determined as a section length of the write pulse signal, and outputting a modified pulse signal (s1) that is obtained by modifying the waveform of the write pulse signal, and write correction is performed to the modified pulse signal (s11) that is obtained in the pulse modification circuit (11). Thereby, highly precise write correction can be performed to the write pulse signal (s1) inputted to the write correction circuit (100).

A phase adjustment circuit includes: a carrier-wave-delay adjusting circuit for delaying an input carrier wave and outputting the delayed carrier wave, in accordance with phase information; and a phase-difference detecting/adjusting circuit for detecting a phase difference between an input signal and the delayed carrier wave, outputting, as the phase information, a value according to the detected phase difference, adjusting the delayed carrier wave such that the delayed carrier wave has a phase substantially coincident with a phase of the input signal, and outputting the resultant carrier wave as a phase-adjusted carrier wave. In a steady state, the phase-difference detecting/adjusting circuit outputs, as the phase information, a value indicating the presence of a phase difference.
摘要:
An analog complex filter combines an in-phase signal and a quadrature signal to output first and second analog signals. An analog-to-digital converter converts the first and second analog signals into first and second digital signals. A digital complex filter attenuates components corresponding to the quadrature signal and the in-phase signal of the first and second digital signals, respectively. A digital bandwidth limited filter allows a target component and an image component contained in the digital complex signal composed of the first and second digital signals from the digital complex filter to pass therethrough, and attenuates an adjacent interference component. An IQ imbalance correction circuit corrects a quadrature error and an amplitude error between the first and second digital signals from the digital band-pass filter.
