摘要:
Methods and apparatus are provided for processing a signal in a read channel using a selective oversampled analog to digital conversion. The disclosed selective oversampled analog to digital conversion simplifies the analog design by transferring at least a portion of the equalization and/or filtering processes to the digital domain. An oversampled analog to digital conversion is applied to an analog input signal to generate a plurality of digital samples for a given bit interval. The plurality of digital samples for a given bit interval are applied to a corresponding plurality of data detectors to obtain a detected output. The plurality of digital samples for a given bit interval may have a phase offset relative to one another. The detected output may be obtained, for example, by summing the outputs of the plurality of data detectors or by aggregating weighted outputs of the plurality of data detectors.

Various embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for data processing. As an example, a data processing circuit is discussed that includes a summation circuit, a data detector circuit, an error feedback circuit, and an error calculation circuit. The summation circuit subtracts a low frequency offset feedback from an input signal to yield a processing output. The data detector circuit applies a data detection algorithm to a derivative of the processing output and provides an ideal output. The error feedback circuit includes a conditional subtraction circuit that conditionally subtracts an interim low frequency offset correction signal from a delayed version of the derivative of the processing output to yield an interim factor. The error calculation circuit generates an interim low frequency offset correction signal based at least in part on the interim factor and a derivative of the ideal output. In such embodiments, the low frequency offset feedback is derived from the interim low frequency offset correction signal.
