Abstract
A short duration pulse is recorded for each transition of a data bit stream. Such short duration pulses are AC bias recorded for enhancing recorder operations. The recording is preferably used with a buried control signal; the system enables simultaneous recording of data with reading or sensing the control signals. Specific equalization and detection techniques are disclosed. A DC restoring detector, operating synchronously to a detected bit stream, continually adapts its operation to readback signal amplitude variations. Because of high frequency aspects, the circuit elements can be mounted immediately adjacent a transducer or as close thereto as possible.
