Oversampled analog-to-digital (A/D) converter architectures have been receiving
increased attention for high-precision A/D converters. These architectures offer the
means of exchanging resolution in time for that in amplitude. Among these
oversampled A/D converters, delta-sigma modulators are the most popular method
used due to their simplicity in the analog circuitry. The...
Increasing densities on magnetic data storage devices leads to problems of
severe intersymbol interference (ISI), additive noise and non-linearities. Advanced
detection strategies for magnetic recording channels fall into two categories: partial
response equalization with maximum likelihood decoding and decision feedback
equalization. This study focuses on doing an adaptive all-pass forward...
