A new architecture for digital implementation of the adaptive equalizer in Class IV partial-response maximum likelihood (PRML) channels employing parallelism and pipelining is described. The architecture was used in a prototype integrated circuit in a 1.2 /spl mu/m CMOS technology to implement an eight-tap adaptive equalizer and Viterbi sequence detector which consumes a total of 70 mW from a 3.3 V supply operating at an input sampling rate of 50 MHz.>
