Abstract
An equalizer equalizes a reproduced waveform reproduced by a thin film magnetic head by reproducing information recorded magnetically on a medium. In the equalizer, the reproduced waveform is delayed to a position of an undershot portion, and is attenuated to an amplitude corresponding to a magnitude of the undershot portion, and the resultant waveform is superposed on the reproduced waveform, to thereby eliminate the undershot portion. Furthermore, by superposing a waveform obtained by inverting the reproduced waveform and amplifying or attenuating the inverted waveform, on the reproduced waveform at a half power position thereof, the width is narrowed.
