The DP84902 is designed to perform the encoding and decoding for disk memory systems. It is designed to interface
directly with Integrated Read Channel Products (such as
National Semiconductor’s DP84910) and with Disk Data
Controller Products with a 2-bit NRZ interface (such as National Semiconductor’s Advanced Disk Controllers). This
Encoder/Decoder (ENDEC) circuit employs a 2/3 (1,7) Run
Length Limited (RLL) code type and supports the hard sectored format.
The DP84902 has the option of selecting either TTL or ECL
compatible code output to interface with preamplifiers commonly used in high data rate applications. This is accommplished by the setting of a bit in the control register.
The ENDEC also includes write data precompensation control circuitry which detects the need for write precompensation. This circuitry issues early and late output signals necessary for precompensation. The precompensation information is generated against a 2T pattern. The precompensation circuitry can be bypassed by the setting of a bit in the
control register.
A control reigster is included to configure the ENDEC and to
select device operation options such as output code inversion, differential code output, bypassing of the encoder, and
the use of an internal write clock.
