  • Abstract
    A mixed-signal, 6.0-MByte/s PRML (partial-response maximum-likelihood) read/write channel has been developed using analog circuits and 20K CMOS gates on a single chip. The 7.5-mm2 chip uses a 5-V, 1-μm, BiCMOS process with a 6-GHz NPN and a 1-GHz PNP and is packaged in a 100 lead metal QFPK. The overall chip architecture is discussed along with specific analog functions and their circuit techniques. This IC will allow production of a 2-GByte, 3.5-in, rigid disk drive with low error rates
