Abstract

The design of a Viterbi detector for high speed disk drive channels is presented. The detector is a soft decision detector that operates on a time varying trellis based on a matched spectral null code. The design was developed by creating a high level model of the system to resolve high level design issues. Standard design tools were used for logic simulation and layout generation. The design has been fabricated and verified to be fully functional.
