Abstract
Apparatus and method for providing equalization adjustment for a finite impulse response (FIR) digital filter are provided in a PRML data channel. A plurality of transformations are defined to transform effective tap weights in a digital filter into modified effective tap weight values by adding each said initial effective tap weight value with a selected cosine equalization adjustment function. A cosine expander circuit is provided for expanding 8-byte compressed equalizations into a 32-byte format and for altering the filter response by a selected cosine equalization adjustment function.
