    摘要: Magnetoresistive and spin valve heads have a layered structure. Common to each of the layered structures of these heads is the combination of a soft-magnetic layer of essentially NiFe near a spacer layer of essentially Ta, which is used for insuring (111) crystal orientation of the NiFe layer. An isolate layer is interposed between the spacer layer and the soft-magnetic layer to prevent a diffusion boundary from being created at the interface of these layers which tends to degrade the soft-magnetic property of the NiFe layer, especially when the thickness of the soft-magnetic layer is 10 and nm or less. The isolate layer is one of a composition in which the principal component is a magnetic element that is not solid soluble with Ta, a composition in which the principal component is a non-magnetic element that is not solid soluble with Ni and Fe, a composition in which the principal component is at least one of the elements of Co, Fe, Ti, V, Zr, Nb, Mo, Hf, W, Tc, Ru, Rh, Pd, Ag, Re, Os, Ir, Pt and Au; or a composition in which the principal component is of Co.sub.(100-x) Fe.sub.(x), where 20.gtoreq.X>O. The isolate layer has a structure that is amorphous, an fcc structure.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention prevent a pinned layer from suffering magnetization reversal by external stress in a magnetic head of magnetoresistance effect type which has a synthetic ferri-magnetic pinned layer structure with an antiferromagnetic layer of IrMnCr. According to one embodiment, a read element of a magnetoresistive head is made up of a antiferromagnetic layer, a first pinned layer, an antiferromagnetically coupled layer 4, a second pinned layer, and a free layer, which are stacked one over another. The first and second pinned layers and have a composition of Co75Fe25 and Co95Fe5, respectively, and a thickness of 18 Å (3.5 nm·T) and 21 Å (3.9 nm·T), respectively, so as to reduce the difference in anisotropic energy between the first pinned layer in contact with the antiferromagnetic layer and the second pinned layer in contact with the nonmagnetic conductive layer. In this way it is possible to reduce the difference |λ1−λ2| in magnetostriction constant between the first and second pinned layers and below 5.0×10−6. Thus it is possible to protect the pinned layer from external stress and magnetic field which rotate the direction of magnetization.

    摘要: A data conversion/output device includes a number of sensors, voltage-time conversion circuits that are arranged adjacent to respective sensors and change output levels upon the lapse of times corresponding to output voltage values from the sensors after a conversion operation start point in order to convert for voltage outputs of the sensors into times. The device also includes sensed data generation circuits outputting, as digital data, lapse times until the output levels of the voltage-time conversion circuits change after a conversion start point. The sensed data generation circuits include a counter for counting a clock signal. An operation start of the voltage-time conversion circuits and a start of count operation of the counter are staggered.
