<p>A device for write precompensation of data signals to be recorded on a magnetic medium, which device has an input for receiving input data signals and an output for supplying output signals to be recorded, an integrator/limiter circuit which receives the input data signals and which supplies an output signal which is in synchronism with the data signal and whose amplitude varies substantially linearly as a function of time at positions where a signal transition appears in the data signal, which amplitude is limited within a data symbol interval; an adjustable filter which receives the input signals and supplies an output signal whose instantaneous values depend on the pattern of preceding and future signal transitions in the data signal; and a comparator circuit which through comparison of the output signal of the integrator/limiter circuit and the output signal of the filter produces the output signal in which at least some signal transitions of the input data signal can be shifted in time. An important aspect of the present invention is that with the output signal dt, an arbitrary number of desired time shifts can be obtained rather than that, as in the prior art, only a choice can be made from a limited number of delay values.</p> |
