Zusammenfassung:	A read system for implementing PR4 and higher order PRML signals includes: a continuous time programmable filter, for receiving a read signal representative of a binary signal from a storage medium and for shaping the read signal into a PR4 shaped read signal; an analog finite impulse response (AFIR) filter, responsive to the continuous time programmable filter, for sampling and forming the PR4 shaped read signal into a PR4 shaped multilevel read signal; an analog to digital converter, responsive to the AFIR filter, for converting the PR4 shaped multilevel read signal from analog to digital; a data sequence filter, responsive to the analog to digital converter, for transforming the PR4 shaped multilevel digital read signal to a predetermined order PRML signal; and a Viterbi detector, responsive to the data sequence filter, for detecting the binary signal from the predetermined order PRML signal.
