Abstract

A high-speed mixed analog/digital PRML data detection and clock recovery apparatus and method. The high-speed mixed analog/digital PRML data detection and clock recovery apparatus includes a variable gain amplifier, an analog equalizer, an analog-to-digital (A/D) converter, a DC offset remover, a level error detector, a Viterbi decoder, and an adaptive digital controller. The adaptive digital controller separately stores the level error values by predetermined frequencies, calculates predetermined coefficient values by each frequency component based on the level error values, and D/A-converts and applies the calculated predetermined coefficient values to the variable gain amplifier and the analog equalizer.
