Abstract
Direct current null in the reproduction of a high density, digital, magnetic recording is equalized by the apparatus which first slims the magnetic head output pulse until one-half the main lobe time width of the pulse is equal to one-half the minimum time between polarity transitions, then, integrates the slimmed pulse, centers it about a zero reference voltage level, and finally, through a limiter, produces an output pulse signal which has abrupt output transitions whenever the centered, integrated pulse crosses the zero reference voltage level.
