    摘要: A fully balanced transimpedance amplifier for high speed and low voltage applications is provided. An input stage of the amplifier uses a matched pair of common source connected transistors with sources tied directly to ground to eliminate the Vds overhead usually found in differential pairs. The ground connection minimizes a source resistance noise component, while matching minimizes power supply noise generation and susceptibility for an array of amplifiers. Feedback resistors along with diode connected MESFETS determine the transimpedance of the amplifier. The nonlinearity of diodes helps to soften clipping. Transresistance also determined the noise generated by the amplifier, and the diode connected MESFETS offer lower noise than resistors for the same impedance. Stability is achieved through use of only a single stage of gain in a loop of the input stage, while additional gain is achieved through cascading in the input stage. A differential stage minimizes any difference in amplitude between two sides of the amplifier input stage. Two stages of source followers provide buffering to drive a relatively low impedance load at the output of the amplifier. Single integrated capacitor coupling, for high bandwidth, low noise, low voltage operation with an integrated detector is provided.

    摘要: A transducer head skew arrangement used in a multiple disk drive data storage system is provided. The disk drive unit includes a plurality of magnetic disk surfaces mounted for simultaneous rotation about an axis. A first sequence of servo information tracks are arrayed on a dedicated servo disk surface. At least one servo reference track is written on each data disk surface for storing servo reference information. The servo reference track is written on a first data disk surface aligned with a predefined servo information track on the dedicated servo disk surface. Then servo reference tracks are sequentially written on each successive consecutive data disk surface progressively offset radially from the last written servo reference track. A plurality of data information tracks for storing data are disposed at predetermined positions relative to the servo reference track on each the data disk surface. A servo transducer head is mounted for movement in a radial direction across the first dedicated servo information for reading servo information; and a plurality of data transducer heads are mounted for movement with the servo transducer head in a radial direction across the disk surfaces for reading the servo reference tracks and for reading and/or writing data to the data information tracks. The distance moved by transducer heads for a cylinder switch is the same distance moved for each head switch, so that track-to-track seek time is minimized without requiring any additional time delay for each head switch. An overall data transfer rate increases for every data transfer accessing more than one data cylinder.

    摘要: A detector is provided for short wave fiber optic communication having compensation to reduce detector jitter. The detector includes a photodetector providing a modulated current. A transimpedance amplifier is coupled to the photodetector receiving the modulated current and providing an output voltage signal. An output buffer is coupled to the transimpedance amplifier receiving the output voltage signal. The output buffer includes a differential transistor pair; a pair of source degeneration resistors connected to the differential transistor pair; and a capacitor coupled between connections of the differential transistor pair and the source degeneration resistors. The value of the capacitor coupled between connections of the differential transistor pair and the source degeneration resistors is selected to reduce jitter. The capacitor passes high slew rate transimpedance amplifier output voltage signals more readily than low slew rate transimpedance amplifier output voltage signals. The effect of the capacitor is to bypass the gain limiting effects of the source degeneration resistors. As a result the differential transistor pair accentuates high slew rates over lower ones so that detector jitter is reduced.
