Abstract
A servo system includes a first equalizer circuit operable to filter digital servo data samples derived from a first read head to yield first equalized data, a second equalizer circuit operable to filter digital servo data samples derived from a second read head to yield second equalized data, a first interpolator operable to interpolate the first equalized data to yield a number of first interpolated outputs at different phases, a second interpolator operable to interpolate the second equalized data to yield a number of second interpolated outputs at different phases, and a phase tracking and signal combining circuit operable to select and combine most closely aligned signals from the first interpolated outputs and the second interpolated outputs to yield a combined servo data signal.
