IEEE 2004 CUSTOM INTEGRATED CIRCUITS CONFERENCE A 0.13um CMOS Ultra-compact DVD SoC employing a Full Digital Equalizing PRML Read Channel

A 0.13~1 CMOS DVD SoC has been developed reducing the die size from previous 64mZ to this 34mmz without degrading its performance and functionality by optimizing chip architecture and implementation scheme in the same generation process technology. The presented SoC features a novel PRML Read channel employing full digital equalizers with oversample method to improve system stability with keeping channel quality.
