| 1. An information recording and reproducing apparatus for recording and reproducing information onto/from a magnetic recording
medium, comprising:
an A/D converter which inputs a read signal of a symbol rate and outputs a sampling signal that is asynchronously oversampled;
an oversampling equalizer which waveform-equalizes said oversampled sampling signal;
a timing recovery unit having an interpolating filter which interpolates said equalization signal and down-samples it to the
symbol rate; and
a training circuit which, when a discrimination error between an output signal of said interpolating filter and the symbol
rate obtained from a discrimination signal of a discriminator is fed back to training of said oversampling equalizer, inversely
interpolates said discrimination error multiplying by the tap factor of said interpolating filter entered via the delay circuit
and outputs the result to said oversampling equalizer via a factor updating circuit.
