The present invention is directed to a method and apparatus for providing multi-point position demodulation of a read head when using spiral-written servo information. In one embodiment, a disk surface has spiral servo information written thereon. A read head generates a read signal envelope when reading the spiral servo information. A read signal envelope is detected within an integration window and integration values are accumulated over the integration window. The accumulated integration values are multiplied by a first number associated with a first integrator value and a second number associated with a second integrator value. A first position error signal associated with the first integrator value is determined, and a second position error signal associated with the second integrator value is also determined. A final position error signal is determined using the first position error signal and the second position error signal.
