ABSTRACT:
A data reproduction circuit for converting a read analog signal into digital data corresponding to recording data, has a second order differential circuit for emitting a second order differentiated signal of the read analog signal read from a data recording medium, an inverter for generating a comparative voltage that is switched between a plurality of levels, and a comparator for comparing the second order differentiated signal and the comparative voltage to release digital data. This permits to cancel a DC component of the read analog signal and to adopt a 2,7 NRZI method for recording and reproduction enabling to achieve a high recording density. The circuit further comprises a peak detecting circuit for detecting and converting a peak of the read analog signal into digital data, and that has a first order differential circuit for emitting a first order differentiated signal of the read analog signal, a three-state inverter for generating a second comparative voltage that is switched between a plurality of levels, and a comparator for comparing the first order differentiated signal and the second comparative voltage to release digital data. The circuit may thus be adopted for both RZ and NRZI methods.
