ABSTRACT:
A resonant frequency control circuit communicates with a head of a disk drive and the preamplifier of a read channel. The resonant frequency control circuit is useful in achieving peaking of a readback signal generated by reading data from a magnetic disk. The read channel also includes an equalizer circuit for enhancing equalization of the readback signal. A controller communicates with the read channel and the resonant frequency control circuit for, in one embodiment, selectively adding capacitance to that capacitance which is present in the read element of the head and the preamplifier. By controlling the resonant frequency, this desired signal peaking can be achieved, which is related to the frequencies of the coded data on the disk.
