Albert S. Hoagland, James E. Monson · Medical Entomology and Zoology · 1983
From the Publisher: Numerous changes have taken place in the field of digital recording since publication of the first edition. This revised and up-to-date work incorporates the basic philosophy of the earlier edition but goes further by including a large amount of new material and presenting a unified treatment of the subject. It focuses on digital magnetic recording principles and, using an integrated approach, highlights the interrelationship and significance of design parameters on the storage of digital information. Among the topics covered are the principles of magnetics; theory of the digital magnetic recording process--both reading and writing; magnetic heads; magnetic recording media; digital recording techniques; noise sources, error rates and ECC.
