The DP8464B Disk Pulse Detector utilizes analog and digital circuitry to detect amplitude peaks of the signal received from the read/write amplifier fitted with the heads of disk drives.
The DP8464B produces a TTL compatible output which, on the positive leading edge, indicates a signal peak. Electrically, these peaks correspond to flux reversals on the magnetic medium. The signal from the read/write amplifier when reading a disk is therefore a series of pulses with alternating polarity.
The Disk Pulse Detector accurately replicates the time position of these peaks. The DP8464B Disk Pulse Detector has three main sections: the Amplifier, the time channel and the gate channel. The Amplifier section consists of a wide bandwidth amplifier, a full wave rectifier and Automatic Gain Control (AGC). The time channel is made from the differentiator and its following bi-directional one shot, while the gate channel is made from the differential comparator with hysteresis, the D flipflop and its following bi-directional one shot.
The Disk Pulse Detector is fabricated using an advanced oxide isolated Schottky process, and has been designed to function with data rates up to 15 Megabits/second. The DP8464B is available in either a 300 mil wide 24-pin dual-inline package or a surface mount 28-pin plastic chip carrier
