Magnetic disk ICs Read / Write amplifier for FDD BH6625FS The BH6625FS is a 4-mode read / write IC designed for floppy disk drives, and has an active filter that can be set according to transfer rate. Any of multiple write current settings can be selected, and inner track / outer track switching is done internally. Applications Floppy disk drives (1MB, 1.6MB and 2MB) Features 1) Internal active filter with multiple settings that can be selected for multiple Q and f0. 2) Time domain filter that is internally switchable according to transfer rate. 3) Any of multiple write current settings can be selected, and inner track / outer track switching is done internally.

The filter time constant can be set externally. After differentiation, the differential output is input to the comparator. The time domain filter detects zero cross, and the output is converted to read data. The monostable multivibrator width can be set externally, while the read data pulse width is a constant 400ns. (2) Write Input write data are converted to toggle movements by the internal flip-flops, operating the write driver. The write driver current is supplied by the write current generator, but the externally set current can be controlled according to density and by selecting inner track / outer track. (3) Erase An open collector output pin is used, and the erase current is set with a resistor between it and the head. (4) Power supply When the low level voltage detector detects a drop in the supply voltage, writing and erasing are prohibited. 519 Magnetic disk ICs Operation notes (1) Use a short pattern for VCC, and a sufficiently wide AGND and DGND. Keep the impedance between VCC and GND low by inserting a bypass capacitor. (2) Use a pattern that will minimize interference between digital signals and the head.
