Abstract
Systems and techniques relating to interpreting signals on a channel having an asymmetrical signal amplitude response include an integrated circuit device including: an input to receive digital data corresponding to an asymmetry corrected analog signal of a read channel; an input to receive sequence data from a discrete time sequence detector, the sequence data generated by the discrete time sequence detector based on the digital data; an output to provide a coefficient adjustment to affect asymmetry correction of the analog signal; and circuitry to generate the coefficient adjustment based on an estimate of non-linearity for the read channel, the estimate derived from the digital data and the sequence data.
