Abstract

A phase-locked loop (PLL) filter of a read channel includes a filter portion having an input coupled to delay circuitry having an output. The input of the filter portion is configured to receive a phase error signal. A look-up table is coupled to the filter portion. The look-up table comprises phase coefficients and frequency coefficients associated with a plurality of phase error magnitudes. The look-up table is configured to provide one or both of a selected phase coefficient and a selected frequency coefficient based on a magnitude of the phase error signal. The PLL filter is configured to adjust a bandwidth of the filter portion using one or both of the selected phase coefficient and the selected frequency coefficient. A phase signal indicative of estimated phase disturbance is produced at the output of the delay circuitry.
