Abstract
A sampled amplitude read channel is disclosed for disk storage systems which asynchronously samples an analog read signal, adaptively equalizes the resulting discrete time sample values according to a target partial response, extracts synchronous sample values through interpolated timing recovery, and detects digital data from the synchronous sample values using a Viterbi sequence detector. To increase the speed of the read channel, the FIR filters in the equalizer and interpolator are implemented according to a residue number system. Further, the residue number system implementation of the FIR filters uses 'one-hot' encoding to decrease power dissipation.
