ABSTRACT:
A survival sequence register for a read channel employing a variable threshold peak qualification technique, has a first data shift register receiving a logic sum stream of two serial streams of coded digital data, corresponding to qualified peaks detected by a reading pick-up of positive and negative sign, respectively, and a pointer register. A control circuit generates an erase signal when an incoming pulse is recognized as corresponding to a detected peak of the same sign of the previously detected peak. The erase signal is input to logic gates which each drive a reset terminal of a flip-flop of the data shift register, with the exception of the first flip-flop of the register. The pointer register being reset when the control circuit receives a pulse corresponding to a peak of opposite polarity of the detected peak relative to the preceding pulse.
