WITE32 Release Notes Version 3.20
The differences between the old and the new dialog boxes are highlighted and enumerated by the reference
numbers. The following sections describe the modifications in order of increasing the reference numbers.
4.5.1 Relaxing Frequency Limitations
The frequency of the overwriting signal (formerly called the High Frequency or HF signal) no longer needs to be
higher than the frequency of the signal it overwrites (original signal, formerly called the Low Frequency or LF
signal).
The titles of the frequency control panels changed from High Freq. Pattern and Low Freq. Pattern to Overwrite
with and Signal Frequency (refer to reference numbers 1 and 2). Similarly, the names of the frequency sweep
options were changed from Fix High Freq. and Fix Low Freq. to Fix Overwriting Freq. and Fix Signal Freq
(refer to reference number 3).
The text boxes in the frequency control panels no longer impose the frequency comparison limitation. The values
in the text boxes in the Density Ratio panel may be greater than 1.
4.5.2 Noise Correction of Original and Overwritten Signals
In WITE32 versions prior to the version 3.20 the noise correction was performed for overwritten signal when
Subtract noise check box was selected (refer to Figure 28, reference number 4):

TAA

is the amplitude of the overwritten signal used in the Overwrite computations,
TAA
overwritten
is the amplitude of the overwritten signal measured on the original signal frequency and
TAA
noise,overwritten
is the amplitude measured on the erased and overwritten track on the original signal frequency.
This correction is still performed in WITE32 version 3.20 if Subtract Noise from the Overwritten Signal check
box is checked (refer to Figure 29, reference number 4).
WITE32 version 3.20 adds noise correction for the original signal:

This correction is performed if Subtract Noise from the Original Signal check box is checked (refer to Figure 29,
reference number 4).
4.5.3 System Erase as Trimming Mode Option
In WITE32 versions prior to 3.20 track trimming in the Alternative Overwrite test was performed only by
positive erase if Enable Trimming check box was selected (refer to Figure 28, reference number 5). In WITE32
version 3.20 the Trimming mode combo box offers four options (refer to Figure 29, reference number 5):
