<p>A data reproduction circuit for converting a read analog signal into digital data corresponding to recording data, has a second order differential circuit (102) for emitting a second order differentiated signal (H) of the read analog signal read from a data recording medium, an inverter (207) for generating a comparative voltage that is switched between a plurality of levels, and a comparator (205) for comparing the second order differentiated signal (H) and the comparative voltage (M) to release digital data (Ca). This permits to cancel a DC component of the read analog signal and to adopt a 2,7NRZI method for recording and reproduction enabling to achieve a high recording density. The circuit further comprises a peak detecting circuit (103) for detecting and converting a peak of the read analog signal into digital data, and that has a first order differential circuit (101) for emitting a first order differentiated signal (G) of the read analog signal (B), a three-state inverter (210/211) generating a second comparative voltage (N1,N2) that is switched between a plurality of levels, and a comparator (208) for comparing the first order differentiated signal (G) and the second comparative voltage to release digital data (Cb). The circuit may thus be adopted for both RZ and NRZI methods. <IMAGE></p> |
