My. Huang et al., OPTIMIZING BIAS CURRENT FOR SHIELDED SOFT-ADJACENT-LAYER MAGNETORESISTIVE READ HEAD USING A TRACK PROFILE MODEL, IEEE transactions on magnetics, 31(6), 1995, pp. 3075-3077
A method of optimizing the bias current of a shielded soft-adjacent-la
yer magnetoresistive recording head is presented using a spinstand tra
ck profile model. Values of write width, read width, track asymmetry,
and track position error signal at the optimized bias current are dete
rmined. Expressions of the position error signal gain of a track profi
le are discussed.
