Abstract

Systems and methods for the correction of DC noise in signals read by a head of a disk drive are presented. Circuitry on a first data path may be configured to filter an input signal to remove a DC component. Acquisition parameters on the first data path may be configured based on the filtered signal. Circuitry on a second data path may be configured to adjust the input signal based on the configured acquisition parameters. A mean of a window of data samples of the adjusted input signal may be computed. Based on the computed mean, a correction may be applied to the adjusted input signal until a stopping rule is satisfied.
