ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for tuning a data filter in a mass storage system. The filter cutoff frequency (low pass) may be set as a percentage above or below the incoming data rate to achieve the desired "eye opening" in read data. The frequency of a reference oscillator in a phase-locked-loop (PLL) and the cutoff frequency of the filter is controlled by a common control signal from the PLL. The PLL, locked to a scaled multiple of the data rate, determines the cutoff frequency of the filter.
