摘要:
An inspection apparatus and method are disclosed for inspecting a magnetic disk or a magnetic head. A first reference signal generating source generates reference signals of a controllable oscillating frequency, and a signal switching means selects either a reference signal or test data reproduced by the magnetic head. Factors such as offsets and gain differentials among signal distribution paths, phase shifts of sampling clocks supplied to a plurality of AID converters, and frequency-dependence of the transfer function and phase response of signal paths are identified so that errors due to these factors can be detected. Based on the detected values of these factors and errors, reference signals are utilized to compensate test data errors.

摘要:
A circuit having a sensor with a stray capacitance value. An output from the sensor is connected to the input of an amplifier while a negative capacitance circuit is electrically connected in parallel with the sensor output. The negative capacitance circuit reduces the effect of the sensor stray capacitance to provide an increased bandwidth and decreased noise on the amplifier output.
