ABSTRACT:
There is described methods and circuitry for decoding modified frequency modulated (MFM) information signals as obtained from rotating magnetic storage devices, such as floppy disks and hard disks used in computers. The novel technique involves twice squaring an information carrying data signal mathematically and without saturation, deriving a clock signal from the twice squared data signal using a phase lock loop and thereafter recovering an information signal from said data signal and clock signal.
