Abstract
After a playback RF signal 3 detected from an optical disc medium 1 is waveform-shaped, it is converted into a digital RF signal 6 with a sampling clock 8 having a cycle twice as long as a channel clock. Thereafter, a first offset correction circuit 9 corrects an offset fluctuation in a high frequency band, and a digital adaptive equalizer 23 performs adaptive equalization, and then a second offset correction circuit 27 corrects an offset component that remains after the offset correction by the first offset correction circuit 9, thereby demodulating a digital binary signal 37. Therefore, even when high-speed playback is carried out and an asymmetry depending on the recording quality is large, a reduction in power consumption can be realized while maintaining high-performance playback. Consequently, it is possible to provide an optical disc playback apparatus which can realize sufficient playback performance at low power consumption.
