Integrated Circuit
Floppy Disk Read Amplifier System
Description:
The NTE3470 is a monolithic READ Amplifier System for obtaining digital information from floppy disk
storage. It is designed to accept the differential AC signal produced by the magnetic head and pro-
duce a digital output pulse that corresponds to each peak of the input signal. The gain stage amplifies
the input waveform and applies it to an external filter network, enabling the active differentiator and
time domain filter to produce the desired output.
