Abstract

An integrated circuit includes a read/write channel and a servo controller. The read/write channel is configured to: determine, in connection with a first path, respective read errors associated with N number of the data sectors; estimate respective offset positions of the N number of the data sectors; and generate a second path based, at least in part, on the respective estimated offset positions. The servo controller is configured to cause adjustment of a position of a read transducer based on the second path.
