Abstract

Servo control circuitry 300 includes a digital to analog converter 402 for converting digital servo control data into a pulse width modulated signal. A first conductor transmits the pulse width modulated signal to an external device 409. A second conductor transmits a reference signal derived from the clock signal to external device 409, external device 409 differentially receiving the pulse width modulated signal with respect to the reference signal.
