Latest Patents
Yasuyuki Itou's latest patents include a coding device and a decoding device. These inventions allow relatively simple circuits to provide a coding device capable of coding longer bit-length data suitably for disk apparatus. The decoding device is designed to decode the data coded by the coding device. In one embodiment, the coding device comprises a coder that produces an (M+1) bits coded string based on an M bits code string. This process limits the run length of the plural bits that may appear in the M bits code string. Additionally, a preprocessor removes bits from predefined positions of an incoming N bits code string to output the M bits code string to the coder. A postprocessor then produces an (N+1) bits code string by reinserting the removed bits into predefined positions of the coded string output from the coder.
Another patent focuses on a data processing method and circuit for data recording and reproducing. This invention aims to achieve a low decoding error ratio using a simple configuration free from unnecessary redundant bits. In this embodiment, user data is RLL-encoded and processed through a series of encoders and decoders to correct various types of errors, ultimately producing a reliable output signal.
