Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To encode the sequence of 32-bit digital data words into that of 32-bit code words in accordance with previously fixed min. 0-run length and max. 0-run length for magnetic medium recording. SOLUTION: The method includes the division of the respective data words into eight data nibbles and judgement indicating whether any one of the data nibbles includes only zero or not. At the time of no code violation, the eight data nibbles are mapped into the seven code nibbles and the four bits of a five-bit code sub-word and a fifth control bit is set to one. When more than one code violation exist, the places are padded in at least the five-bit code sub-word and in other required code nibbles and, then, the data nibbles toward a normal code sub-word and the nibble place are mapped again to the code place which originally includes the data nibble judged to be the code violation.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for encoding a sequence of 32 bit digital data words into a sequence of 33 bit code words in consonance with predetermined minimum zero tun length (d) and predetermined maximum zero run length (k) for recording upon a magnetic medium within a magnetic recording channel is disclosed. The method comprises steps of dividing each data word into eight data nibbles, determining whether any data nibble contains all zeros. If no code violation, mapping the eight data nibbles to seven code nibbles and to four bits of a five bit code sub-word and setting a fifth control bit to one. If one or more code violations are present, embedding code violation locations within at least the five bit code sub-word and other code nibbles if necessary and remapping data nibbles ordinarily directed to the code sub-word and nibble locations to code locations otherwise containing the data nibbles determined to be code violations.

Abstract: An analog to digital converter circuit (20) in a sampling data detection channel of a disk drive synchronously samples user data in a data track areas at a first quantization resolution and samples servo bursts from the spoke areas at a second quantization resolution effectively greater than said first quantization resolution. An offset circuit (60) provides a predetermined analog offset signal to a combining circuit (160, 170) which combines it with an incoming analog signal to provide a composite signal during a servo burst sampling interval. An analog to digital converter (180, 190) samples the composite signal during the servo spoke burst sampling interval, and synchronously samples the analog signal during a user data sampling interval. A digital averaging circuit (210) averages the servo spoke samples over a predetermined averaging interval to provide averaged burst samples having increased bit resolution.

Abstract: A modulation encoder 14 includes a base conversion circuit 23 that converts a partitioned input data stream from a first base representation (e.g. base 16) into a second (e.g. base 15) in accordance with the size of groups of bits. Intermediate values in the second base representation are formed and a residual value logic 26 performs modulo-arithmetic, the result of which is fed to a one's complement logic 28 to produce output codewords. The modulation decoder (fig. 3) performs an inverse process to arrive at the original data. The invention provides a high code rate (e.g. 32/33) with a low value constraint length (k), e.g. the maximum number of consecutive zeros being 6, that is relatively easy to implement. Application is to magnetic storage systems, in particular tape drives.

Abstract: The coding process provides a sequence of 32 bit data words as a sequence from 33 bit code words. The process is based upon each data word being represented as eight data nibbles and a check is made for null values. If there is no loss of code the words are reduced to seven nibbles

Abstract: A synchronous sampling data detection channel includes a data transducer head positioned by a servo-controlled actuator over a recording track of a rotating data storage disk, a preamplifier for receiving electrical analog signals magnetically induced by the data transducer head from flux transitions present in at least the servo information field, a digital sampler for synchronously sampling the electrical analog signals to produce digital samples, and a Viterbi detector coupled to receive digital samples from the synchronous sampling data detection channel for decoding 1/4 T coded wide biphase servo information patterns patterns as maximum likelihood servo data sequences, wherein the wide biphase magnet patterns are arranged e.g. as ++-- magnet patterns for a binary zero information value and --++ magnet patterns for a binary one information value.
