Title: Compensation for repeatable run-out error
Inventor: MORRIS JOHN C
IPC: G11B21/08
Filed: 1998-06-29
Abstract: A method and apparatus for compensating for repeatable run-out errors in a disc drive (100) is disclosed.

Title: A multi-stage reflection amplifier with means for preventing backwards propagation
Inventor: FORSTER IAN JAMES
IPC: H03F1/02
Filed: 2000-05-16
Abstract: The invention provides an amplifier circuit 600 for amplifying an input signal to generate an amplified output signal. The circuit incorporates a cascaded series of reflection amplifiers 700,710 (1400 Fig 3) arranged along a signal path and operative to amplify signals propagating in a forward direction along the signal path. The circuit is operative to counteract signal propagation in a reverse direction along the signal path, thereby hindering spontaneous oscillation from arising within the circuit 600. Incorporation of reflection amplifiers into the circuit enables it to provide high gain, for example 50 dB, whilst consuming low currents, for example tens of microamperes. The circuit 600 is especially suitable for use at intermediate frequencies in radio receivers such as mobile telephones.
