    摘要: In a method of measuring the flying height of a slider supporting a magnetic transducer in an operational magnetic storage system, relative motion is produced between the magnetic transducer and a magnetic recording medium at a first velocity so that the resulting air bearing positions the magnetic transducer slider at a first flying height from the magnetic medium. A single signal of constant periodicity is written over a predetermined area of the recording medium by the magnetic transducer, and a readback signal is sensed from the predetermined area of the recording medium to produce a first signal. The flying height of the magnetic transducer slider is lowered to substantially zero, and a readback signal is sensed at the lowered flying height to produce a second signal. The first flying height is then calculated as the ratio, expressed in decibels, of the first and second signals times the wavelength divided by a constant. In another embodiment a plurality of signals are recorded and readback signals are simultaneously sensed at two separate wavelengths. In a further embodiment, a signal is recorded which has a spectral content comprising a plurality of different frequencies, and readback signals are simultaneously sensed at two separate wavelengths.

    摘要: The resistance (Rh) of a magnetoresistive sensor is disposed between the bases of a differential pair of transistors (T1a and T1b) comprising the input stage of an amplifier. Constant bias voltage for the sensor is provided (by J1 and RE) independently of the resistance of the sensor. DC feedback (from g₀) to the input stage balances current flow in both paths of the differential input stage to correct for DC offset arising in the output from the input stage emitter resistor (RE). The amplified signal represents ΔR h /R h , where ΔR h is the change in steady-state resistance, R h , of the sensor.
