    摘要: A circuit for a high-density data recording channel includes a first data detector, a second data detector, one or more multiplexers and a sequence identifier. The first data detector generates a first data detector output, and the second data detector generates a second data detector output. The multiplexers change between a first mode and a second mode to alternately receive the first data detector output and the second data detector output. The sequence identifier receives a data sequence including at least one of a first data sequence, such as VFO data, and a second data sequence, such as random data. The second data sequence includes a greater number of signal levels than the first data sequence. The sequence identifier changes the multiplexers between the first mode and the second mode based on whether the data sequence is the first data sequence or the second data sequence. The data sequence includes a plurality of timing stages. The sequence detector can at least partially control a loop bandwidth of the circuit based on the timing stage of the data sequence.

    摘要: In a method of multi-rate tracking with a multi-actuator servo control, a track position error is sampled at an asynchronous sample rate for operating a first actuator. The track position error is also sampled at a synchronous sample rate for operating a second actuator. The sampling from the synchronous sample rate is utilized to reduce a delay associated with the sampling at the asynchronous sample rate.

    摘要: Methods, apparatuses and systems directed to calculation of a reel motor torque constant (“KT”). In one implementation, calibration logic energizes supply and take-up reel motors to wind tape from a supply reel to a take-up reel. The calibration logic, during winding, selectively disengages the supply reel motor and measures one or more attributes of the supply reel motor, such as the resulting voltage observed at the winding terminals of the supply reel motor and the angular velocity of the supply reel motor during the period of disengagement. The calibration logic then calculates KT based on the observed attributes.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for providing adaptive disturbance compensation with multi-rate synchronized sampling is disclosed herein. The dynamic disturbance occurring in a media drive during read/write operations is attenuated using the adaptive disturbance compensation scheme. A plurality of compensation filters are used, each of the compensation filters configured to attenuate a disturbance caused by a particular source within the media drive. Each of the compensation filters is computed based on a sampling rate relevant to the respective disturbances.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a read channel comprises: a preprocessor for receiving a first signal and producing a second signal from the first signal using current values of a positive coefficient, a zero coefficient, and a negative coefficient; an interpolator for producing a third signal based on the second signal; and a slicer for producing a fourth signal from the third signal by estimating a level for the third signal. The fourth signal is at one of three levels consisting of a positive level, a zero level, and a negative level. For every n first signals received by the preprocessor, the current value of one of the positive coefficient, the zero coefficient, and the negative coefficient is adjusted depending on which of the three levels the fourth signal is at.
